How I Celebrated

Luckily we found a pound cake for today! It was a banana pound cake and it was delicious. It was really weird because I usually buy pound cakes at the dollar store, and when I made my trifle this last time, they didn't have any so I had to bake my own. No biggie, just an extra step. Anyways, that was old news, enjoy this fresh new vid.

History

 Interesting how pound cake got its name. The more you know, right? I am not sure when I first tried pound cake, but I know I use it often in my trifles because I never can find angel food cake when I need it.

Merchandise

Snacks are probably what I spend my money on most often.
