Mountain Dew Cake Recipe

For my birthday I received a bundt pan. I was super excited because I wanted it for this specific recipe! I received it just in time to make this cake for my Origami Owl jewelry party! It's super easy and good!


Mountain Dew Cake
• 1 box lemon cake mix (I used Duncan Hines)
• 1 (12 oz) can Mountain Dew
• 3/4 c. Vegetable Oil
• 4 large eggs
• 2 cups powdered sugar
• 1/4 cup Mountain Dew


The recipe is super easy. Combine all ingredients and mix on medium for 2 minutes. Spray a bundt pan with non stick cooking spray. Pour the cake batter into the bundt pan and bake for 45 minutes at 350 degrees. Let cool for 10 minutes in the pan and then turn onto a cooling rack until it is completely cool.
In the meantime, to make the glaze for the cake, combine the powdered sugar and 1/4 cup of Mountain Dew until smooth. Pour over the completely cool cake. Allow the glaze time to set up and then it's ready to serve!
This was a hit at the party and the leftovers were a hit at work the next day! Even my husband said it was yummy!
Enjoy!
Until next time,
Kara

Book & Movie Review- Molly's Game

Joe and I recently read the book Molly's Game. We decided we would read the book while we waited for the movie to come out on DVD. photo credit link It is hard to believe it was a true story and just not made up. I am not one who likes biographies or reading to "learn." I like a good dramatic up and down story and this fits into that category. It's an action packed book about poker, greed, and knowing who to trust.  Molly Bloom- photo credit link The book details Molly Bloom's rise to run a secret celebrity rich poker game in back rooms and fancy hotels. The book drops some big names that many will recognize from many movies we watch on the big screen. IMDb's description of the movie is, "The true story of Molly Bloom, an Olympic-class skier, who ran the world's most exclusive high-stakes poker game and became an FBI target." photo credit link I would highly recommend reading the book first, because the movie does not use names ...

Book Recommendations for October

Here are some recent books that I enjoyed. Mythos Academy Series- by Jennifer Estep I really enjoyed reading this young adult series. It incorporates action, adventure, romance, mythology, and mystery all into one high school! It's an easy read that keeps you wanting to know more.  picture source PLUS, it helped me answer a recent mythology Jeopardy question...Can we say invaluable information?!? First Frost is the first book in the series. Here is the description: I am Gwen Frost, and I have a Gypsy gift. It's called psychometry – that's a fancy way of saying that I see images in my head and get flashes of other people's memories off almost everything I touch, even guys. My gift makes me kind of nosy. Okay, okay, maybe a lot nosy—to the point of obsession sometimes. I want to know everything about everyone around me. But even I don't want to know the secrets my friend Paige is hiding or the terrible loss that will send me to a new school – Mythos Ac...

Book Recommendations for December!

I know, I know....it's been too long! But I am back with some book recommendations for that book lover in your life (just in time for Christmas)! I absolutely LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to read. I just think it's so important to start kids at a small age of loving to read. I have a tub of all my childhood books. Many of them are from my great-grandma. She would get me a new book for my birthday, Christmas or special occasion. Many kids today are always on their phone and need a quick fix for their attention spans. However, a kid that reads can spend countless hours in fantasy lands, learning a new hobby, or having an adventure! For the adult book fans, I have some new books that I really enjoyed! Fever Series- Darkfever by Karen Marie Moning I started this book and was like where is this going?! But I kept reading and I ended up really enjoying the series.  source I enjoy fantasy books that just keep you guessing and this series really did that! It had mystery, adventure, he...
