Cocoa Frosting on a Red Velvet Cake?

Don't forget to pause the music for this one.

Before Stuart went to school today, he wanted to make me a cake. He picked out a Red Velvet cake mix and proceeded to read the directions (thanks to the photos) and make it up. We are letting it cool while he is off at school and then will make up the frosting and they will frost it when they get home. I was down on the computer printing out a couple of lease agreements and left Fiona and Myles upstairs to tend to themselves.

BIG mistake!

I went up to check on them and found this:

OOOPPSS! Just a warning to all of you parents: Don't leave your children unattended! They will find the Ovaltine mix and lick, suck, sniff, and inhale it in record time! It was so sticky that I just ended up putting them both in the tub and taking the rug to the laundry room. Thankfully it was on the rug or I would have been spending the remainder of my day mopping the kitchen floor over and over until all of the stick was gone. I knew there was a reason why I did not wash that rug this morning.
