Ciambella Cake

Ok, if you have tasted this light, tasty, Italian cake you know it's a winner! Also, if you have ever spent time at my house, ever, there is a good chance you have had it. It was, and continues to be, a staple food group in my home. We love it and we love sharing it with others! It is so versatile and because it isn't too sweet it works for a breakfast snack or with chocolate pudding for dessert! I hope you lovvvvvvvvvvvvvve it! (it's pronounced CHAM BELLA)

Pre-heat oven to 375, and grease a round bundt cake pan.

Ingredients:
2 Eggs
1 1/3 c. sugar
2 c. flour
2/3 c. canola or veggie oil
3 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1 1/3 c. milk (skim works well)

Beat the sugar and eggs, then add all other ingredients and blend together. Pour batter into greased bundt pan and cook at 375 for 30-35 mins. (I use a tooth pick to see if it's done) The cake will be golden brown and slightly crumbly inside. Hope you love it! m-

Rod was nice enough to give us tickets to the meet and greet with the Jazz players. We got everyone's autograph and even got to snap a few pics. It was a really fun experience, Thanks Rod! This is Dax with Coach Jerry Sloan and D Will!

Happy Halloween! Dax was Will Farrell in Semi-Pro, and I was a nice Halloween Witch! I am a Halloween fanatic and we just enjoy having fun and dressing up. We were a little surprised at the lack of trick-or-treaters this year but we did have the chance to go a party and enjoy some friends and fun.

Seattle! Dax and I met up with family in Seattle and had a blast, while the guys went to the GB/Seahawks game, the ladies got to shop! Here we are in front of the first Starbucks ever down on Pikes! Sarah and I found a little alley way and had to stop for a pic.
