I’m making this cake today for Jon’s birthday. Hope that it turns out well. One good thing about it is that our oldest son can eat it with us since it contains no wheat. I’m betting that the 5 year old won’t touch it. This, of course, means that he is crazy. Have a good Friday, y’all. And stop in barlowfarms and wish Jon a happy one if you are so inclined. <\/p>\n
