I'd need a damn big paper bag -- maybe a few of those leaf bags the home stores sell in the fall -- but this is an appealing idea.

Thanks Jan, I agree, not a big enough bag!

This has given me some literal food for thought. I'm envisioning writing my biggest fears in icing. Piping them onto a sheet cake and eating the whole damn thing. Giving new meaning to the phrase, "swallowing my fears."

I will need two bags… I was doing pretty well until… but I won’t get political here.

For those who haven’t read Paper Bags, do. It’s a wonderful, gutsy book!
