The other day this recipe was shared with me: King Arthur Flour’s Cake in a Pan<\/a>. Now, I’m not a big cake guy, but it looked pretty compelling so I whipped it up. And it’s pretty easy and handy, since no eggs or butter is involved. I first decided to kick it up a notch by adding chocolate chips inside the the cake:

That last chair is\u00a0 our new-to-us craigslist find chair. It is David-nap approved.<\/p>\n

And finally the obligatory messy-baby-while-eating-something photo.<\/p>\n

I guess Mal also agrees that more is better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
