Can you punctuate? Can you bake? Can you do both at the same time?
The organizers of National Punctuation Day are inviting adults and children to bake a cake in the shape of their favourite punctuation mark and enter it into a competition. It's not as hard as it sounds: Pretty much every cake ever baked has been in the shape of a period. Make three birthday cakes and lay them out in a horizontal row and you have an ellipsis. Two laid out vertically gets you a full colon. (Eating both cakes also gets you a full colon, but I digest.)
Entry rules are at the NPD website, where you will also find a recipe for punctuation meatloaf.
