This photo is not awesome, but the cake totally is. |
Excited, yes, because I can’t wait to see my family and
friends. Worried, absolutely, because Lavinia and I have been super sick for
the last few days. Bummed, of course, because I’m going to miss my husband real
bad.
So while I'm consuming airplane and fast food- do yourself a favor and make this delicious fruity goodness just because you can.

I’m consider myself more of a cook than a baker because I don't like "measurements." I do have to say I'm quite proud because I totally made this recipe up and it rocks. Admittedly I did get some of the dry ingredient proportions from a few recipes I read online. If you want to get a little cray just add
some frosting and viola- a healthy cake.

- Bake that bad boy in a greased loaf pan for 35 minutes at about 175 C or 350 F (Keep an eye on it and poke in the middle if you're unsure. You could do muffins too!
Oh feel better soon, Dawn. It's terrible to be sick and travelling, and it's hard to travel with a kid. My American friend just left for Seattle with her 1 yr old yesterday. YIKES!
