Strawberry Upside Down Cake, A Yum Dessert

This is a recipe I found on Pinterest months ago and I am just now getting around to making it.  It is one of those EASY and Very Good recipes that I will use many times.  

Strawberry Upside Down Cake

1 cake mix 
(I used white cake, but you can use yellow or even chocolate!)
2 cups crushed strawberries
(I used fresh strawberries and added a little sugar, put them in a sealed bowl and shook them to juice them a little.)
1 box strawberry jello
3 cups miniature marshmallow.

In a 9 X 13 pan, put crush strawberries on bottom.  Sprinkle with jello powder.  Put marshmallows on top.

Then mix cake according to directions on box.  Pour on top of marshmallows.

Bake 350 for 40-50 minutes.  Do the toothpick test.  Let cool for 15 minutes.  Run a knife around the edge to loosen.  Flip cake out on serving platter.  I put a dollop of whipped topping on each piece I served.



Let me know if you decide to bake this and if your family enjoys it.  I am thinking this will be a good Easter Sunday dessert!!!

December is coming pretty fast, y'all.  And there is this little thing I have done for my kids ever since about 1988. I give my kids a "Happy December" present.

They are now adults, but I still get them something each December 1.  I mail it. Or if I see them at Thanksgiving, I can give it to them. I still do little things - Christmas earrings, Bath & Body Works Peppermint soap, a holiday candle. Oh, and I have a son that I don't leave out of the "Happy December" gifting. He has his own apartment now, so I can give him festive items, like Santa salt and pepper shakers or a Dunkin Donuts gift card for a speciality coffee. Or one year I gave him a pack of lip balm (ye...

From Twigs to Trees!

OK, girlfriends, I'm ready to show you what I have been working on for weeks and weeks.  I told you I was working on something for two special people - it is done!  Let me tell you who, what, when, where, and why.  For as long as I can remember I have given my girls a "Happy December" present.  I just love the Christmas season so much that I am ready to begin the celebration.  So on December 1 I would have a gift for my kids.  They might come home from school and find a Christmas shirt on their bed or I would present them with Christmas socks or a Christmas trinket, maybe cookie cutters or sticker book.  Just something.   For fun!  This year I made: Grapevine Christmas trees!!!!  I had lots of help!  My sister, Nancy, Mark, and Hank all helped me gather the vines.  Poor Hank got poison twice from helping me find vines!  Then I wrapped the vines around a tomato cage using the vines and thin wire. ...
