Yummy. I think the Woodburys are an odd bunch since they don’t “love” cake. Seriously, what’s not to love?!
Anyhow… did you know that a “cube” of butter is a regional thing… while reading other food blogs I’ve learned that people don’t know what in the world we Utahns (Westerners?) are talking about. Some people prefer it be called a “stick” of butter. Just food for thought.
What?!?!?! We don’t love cake?!?!?! Since when? Okay, I don’t LOVE just plain old box cake, but give me a good substantial cake any day and I am happy!
