Today....

What did you do today?

For me today is the busiest day of the week. It is Saturday. The day when Alan and I are really busy at the deli because everyone loves to come in for breakfasts, newspapers, bacon, milk, chocolate chip cookies and especially brownies.

Othertimes I use a bundt tin. Or, like this one I used 3 small tins and then layered it with chocolate frosting, covered it in EVEN MORE

I made this cake for Andrew O'Keefes' sons birthday a few weeks ago....it was a flourless chocolate cake.
