Bundt Cake and Henry Weinhard's

Chris and I have done a little experimenting this week....well, mostly me but he gets to be included in everything ;) Linda (the cutest 70 year old woman ever) gave me this bundt pan so we finally put it to use. I wanted to take a picture of it whole but we forgot to before we dug in to eat. But it still looks cool! I want to experiment with it and see what kind of crazy kinds of cakes we can get out of this thing. I'm not much of a frosting fan so I topped this cake off with my favorite....powdered sugar!!! It was sooooo yummy!


Our next little adventure was Heny Weinhard's. Every time we go to the grocery store we always end up in the aisle with this particular drink. We haven't ever bought it because it's a little spendy and whenever it happens to be on sale it is always gone. Chris got lucky this time....it was on sale and it was in stock....so we got some. Apparently there is an art to drinking this stuff. Upon my interview with the expert (Chris) this is what I found.
.......In order to get the full effect of drinking the oh so coveted Henry Weinhard's Root Beer you can't put your whole mouth over the opening of the bottle. The trick is to keep the sides of your mouth open so the air can run freely." Where it runs, I have no idea because when I tried all I got was a mouth full of carbonation that nearly choked me to death. Okay, maybe a little dramatic. I really wanted to like this and I really wanted to experience the wonderful sensation, but let's be honest...I just can't handle it! So to Chris' great disappointment, he now has 4 1/2 bottles of wonderful, amazing, tasteful Henry Weindard's to enjoy ALL BY HIMSELF. His wife must love him ;)
