Being a warrior queen/suburban writer-housewife can be rough sometimes. I often feel like I should be riding horses and coming up with battle strategies, and instead I end up cleaning out my cupboards. My identity is often stuck in cognitive dissonance. (I suspect this is not unique to warrior-multiples but I can only speak for me.)
That’s why this gift is perfect: the mold that made this cake. Sassy has a gift for gifts, but she’s also incredibly generous – one of the hard things about the way we’ve all chosen to conduct ourselves is that I’m not cleaning out her cupboards, you know? And yet she found the perfect bundt cake. Lyr loves it because – well, cake! A really nice cake pan. I love it because it made this fort! Once I have a bit of mad money again I might even have to go get some little men and women so that we can set up battles. I can even see massive cake decorating in our future.
But meanwhile, the bleak winter snow has come to our silent walls…
(And yes, this was Teh Seekrit dessert. It is indeed a gingerbread bundt cake, but I don’t completely recommend the recipe… it was okay, but not spectacular. Feel free to share spectacular bundt recipes bellow. In fact this was my first bundt ever… but not my last.)






this kicks butt!!!!!!!!!! Love it!
