Hey Laura?

How's this for a cake?

Over in the Blogathon forum, HellKitten, who is blogging for the Canadian Cancer Society, posted a super cool cake recipe. Go on over and say hello!

This is apparently her great-grandmother's recipe, and does it ever sound tasty!

I absolutely MUST make this cake this week!

Dear gods, I want cake now. Because I haven't been eating all day. Not at all.
