Carrot Cake Murder | Joanne Fluke

Eggs I did not know this 🍰 1w

CSeydel I‘m not sure that‘s true. That may be the origin of the idiom “cake walk” for something easy, but I thought the first known reference to “piece of cake” was Ogden Nash. 1w

CSeydel (Also, slavery had ended by the 1870s) 1w

See All 7 Comments

JuliaTheBookNerd @CSeydel from what I found the origin is like many idioms where there are 2 or more stories of the origin. Ogden Nash is the other well known origin. No one know which one is the true origin. 1w

JuliaTheBookNerd @CSeydel There is also an origin story for this idiom that it originated in the Royal Air Force in the 1930s 🤷🏻‍♀️ Not sure which one is true but I went with the earliest reference origin 1w

CSeydel Is there a historical source for the slave cake walk origin? Sometimes people get confused and post info on websites that isn‘t entirely accurate. I suppose it‘s the “1870s” error that is making me doubt. 1w
