Happy! Cake!

The Animalia has a sweet tooth. It's not like she's had much in the way of processed sugars, but when she gets a taste of something sweet that isn't fruit, she goes nuts. But in a cute way, sort of, not in a crazy baby eyes wide open screaming way. A couple of nights ago, we had ice cream. The second she saw it she said, "CAKE! HAPPY!" I gave her a tiny little taste.
"HAPPY CAKE!" she said excitedly. And then she got all tense and shivered. A couple more tastes and she was done, or at least I was done and thought she should be done.
"Ya se acabó. No hay más," I told her.
"Aya happy?" she asked.
"Yes, Amalia, you're happy. But no more ice cream."
"Happy cake! Cake mas! Happy!" she cried in her very best sad toddler voice. She was trying to manipulate me for more happy cake. But I couldn't be had.
