    I gotta try this one soon. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow if I have all the ingredients. Sounds wonderful! I also love the quote and if there is one person I avoid like the plague it's "him".
    I also like the quote that an idle mind is the devil's workshop. If thats not an incentive to keep busy I don't know what is. Gonna love this cake, I can tell already! Thanks for the recipe!
