that's a nice metapher indeed, thanks for pointing it out! i"m looking
forward to try it the next time!

that said: i'm not sure the cake baking forms are the best

I agree this is the case for #8, but #17 is different, the arrows dont
go in a circle, and that's of the reason I like #17 the best so far.
