cupcake.

This Chocolate cake recipe is seriously the best, for being so basic in ingredients.
Hand-me-down Chocolate cake

2 cups Flour

1 1/4 tsp. Baking soda

3/4 tsp. salt

3/4 cups Cocoa ( I am almost always adding just a bit more than this because I like lots of chocolate :)

1 3/4 cups Sugar

Mix these thoroughly then add-

2 eggs

1 1/2 tsp Vanilla

1 1/3 cups Water

3/4 cup Oil

Mix very well. You can't really over mix it.

Pour into greased whateversize pan you like. Bake a 350 Fahrenheit, 35 to 40 minutes for 13x9 inch pan. 15-20 minutes for cupcakes.

I like using the glossy chocolate frosting from my Betty Crocker cookbook but mint or most any flavor works pretty well.

Happy day! :)

He is pretty much cute.

Pretty sweet.
And such a great piano player.
He even knows how to pose for the camera excellently.
Which that is pretty great for me.
Wouldn't you say?
Pretty much so.
