Easy Cake Hack!

When we were living on a ship in West Africa Stephanie developed a quick cake hack that made a box mix tastes 100x better but still used minimal ingredients. In this video, she makes a chocolate cake with peanut butter frosting BUT the technique can be used on other cake flavors as well.

She makes the cake as instructed on the box and then...

See how she uses sour cream and pudding mix (and sometimes espresso) in today's video!

Of course that is to involved for the little ones so Little Valley Academy had chicken tenders, mashed potatoes, broccoli, and slice of bread.

Second Day Lunch Menu

Day two, loaded baked potato! Was that a real sentence? Ah, I don't care its my blog.

The word on the street was there were no complaints today that anyone heard. Yesterday there were a few complaints but that was because I was hoping with all the emphasis on food, food shows, health, and Michelle Obama messing with the public school system lunches that these kids taste buds would have evolved to enjoy or try hummus. Not so much. I am not sure about the rest of the country but in the south its "Ranch Nation" or maybe "Ranch Country". We don't even bother saying Hidden Valley Ranch or Ranch Dressing. We love it on about everything!  That, and HOT SAUCE y'all!!!

Ok, back to the spuds. Baked potato, chili, cheese, bacon bits, butter, sour cream, and a side salad! And yes, with ranch! LOL!

My right hand man Roberto has had to learn how I do things at a fast pace. He's holding up well, but it is only day 2...
