Metro Manila (CNN Philippines Life) When a couple of friends were kind enough to send me a few cakes on my birthday, I knew I couldn’t really fit more than one in my refrigerator. So, I divided the cakes and sent out cake samplers to friends who lived nearby. My friends, who weren’t expecting it, sent me crying and heart emojis and messages of gratitude in uppercase. Even though we weren’t together physically, sharing cake felt like a way for us to celebrate, a virtual way to have our cake and eat it too during a time where nothing has gone our way.
