November 21, 2014 by jlpenner 7 Comments

I was reading an article in  Good Housekeeping. The article was about a family that saved $10,000 in one year but cutting expenses. While I didn’t fully connect with the family because they looked to be pretty big spenders ($200, grocery shopping trips, freely giving their children money, large monthly clothing budgets).. and they probably could have cut A LOT more than $10,000 a year with all they were spend.

They are very moist and dense- we really enjoyed them!!  Here is the original recipe I pulled from. It was for a double layer cake, so I halved the {Read More}
