Food is love


My darling husband has been slaving away to fix some doo-hickey that makes our 4wheeler shift. Although I tend to be fairly mechanical, it completely starts and ends with cars. Since I am absolutely no help to him, I made his favorite cake instead...

There wasn't time to get a picture before some went missing (weird...) but all in all, it came out pretty well. Used this recipe: Pineapple Upside-Down Cake The only changes I made were adding a little vanilla to the mix, chunk pineapple instead of rings and cooked it in a cast iron skillet.

This recipe makes me wonder.....why do I EVER buy cake mix? It tastes funny and only saves me about 3.5 minutes off my total baking time. May have to do a super-anal retentive calculation sometime to check cost comparision also.... Either way, from scratch just tastes better!
