My Life is Crap

My Bite

The Chew is one of my favorite shows.  I never thought I would be one of those people that record daytime television shows but, alas, not a (week)day goes by that it is not on my DVR.  I can't get enough of Clinton, Michael, Carla, Daphne and Mario!  With that said, I just submitted my first creation to "My Bites" and I wanted join the food blog bandwagon for a moment and share it with ya'll.  

I love dessert.  But living alone I can never get all the way through a full cake before it starts to get dried out, stale or moldy.  So, I created this small, brownie-like skillet cake that is perfect for a couple days of satisfying that sweet tooth!  So without further adieu....
