...years back and decided to write an album of her own material. The result is "Red Dirt Girl," a surprisingly raw and confessional collection in which Harris chronicles a disastrous, passionate relationship, the telling of which borders on religious catharsis. Harris' pristine image gets a gritty makeover with the carnal intimations of "I Don't Wanna Talk About It Now," and elsewhere her self-revelation can be almost uncomfortably direct...

What exactly makes a cake "erotic?" Where do you draw the line between carnal and just disgusting? How do you keep the staff of the Harvard Lampoon out? Answer: you don't. The bakery does its best to humor its customers by taking requests. One customer asked for "a butt cake with a vibrator sticking out of it, so that when you turned...
