Your Kids will LOVE this!!!

I came across this cake last week and thought I would try it. My girls loved it so much that we have made it twice. Here is the recipe
A box of white cake mix
16 oz bottle of Sprite
That is it!!!
Mix those two ingredients together. Separate the batter into different bowls. Put different colors of food coloring in each. Then drop in the batter. Bake it at whatever the box says. After it is cooked it is just as bright, it's pretty cool.
The recipe said that you ice it with Cool Whip and Instant Pudding mixed together.

The second time I made it, I didn't have Sprite so I just followed the box instructions but I also added a thing of yogurt. I actually prefer it this way. Then you can ice the cake with Cool Whip and yogurt mixed together and food coloring, of coarse.

Since I have been in Young Womans I have done a lot of firsts. I had never sent out a mass email, that was a first. I had never had Bob's famous (and amazingly delicious) tacos, that was a first also. And lastly, I had never made a double layer cake. I have to be honest, I was a little scared but I did it. I know that I need A LOT of work but it's a start.

Making cake

Yesterday Ari wanted to wear her light up Halloween shirt to her Valentine's Party. I tried to get her to wear her cute pink outfit but she insisted that everyone would LOVE the Halloween shirt. Of coarse Devy had to wear hers also.
