The pumpkin cake was a hit (if you want the recipe, you can find it here! The birthday girl was very surprised and thrilled – she said she hasn’t had a homemade cake made in her honor since she was a little girl. Then she ate a bite and declared it good.
At that point I sent an email out to about 15 people in our vicinity and they swooped in like vultures. There is only a little bit left and I had at least four people ask for the recipe (which I was happy to give them).
One person also came by and asked if Denis and I take cake requests. I laughed and asked what she wanted, and she said she wanted a red velvet cake. I told her neither of us had ever done one, but I’d be willing to give it a shot.
So after the new year, my goal is to make a red velvet cake to bring into the office.
