If you're considering buying a cake from a grocery store, you could just get whatever flavor of boxed cake mix and icing she'd like and make that at home. If you're considering buying a cake from a bakery, better to go sooner than later b/c they may sell out of what you want.

Scalloped potatoes. Can make them with or without onions, with either cream or milk, with or without cheese. Put alternating layers of thin sliced potatoes and the other ingredients in a geased 13x9 casserole dish, bake it in the oven, and let it rest for the sauce to thicken.

Wait, have I been pronouncing Ryu wrong all this time?

We say certain words wrong b/c vowels have multiple sounds in English but one sound (more or less) in Japanese. Their characters use a syllabary based on syllables.

Any vowel can be doubled in length.

You can sometimes add a ya, yu, or yo after a consonant (like with Ryu).

The vowels in the syllables sound like:
a = ah (the first part of ah ha)
i = ii (the letter e in English)
u = ooh (like in loop or hoop)
e = eh (the vowel sound in meh)
o = oh (the letter o in English)

So ninja should sound like niinja. karaoke should sound like ka ra o ke but we tend to say carry okey. Nintendo should shound like Niin ten do-o (long o), but they "officially" changed the non-Japanese pronunciation.

It all seems simple enough, but it's hard to break the sounds you learned first. (It's also why Japanese people tens to have such a problem with learning English... they use the syllabary sounds instead of trying to figure out the mosh pit of vowel sounds that we've got.)

The exceptions are the polyglots and natural language learners. Lucky bastards.
