Wait for it, wait for it…
I actually bought buttermilk. And when I buy things, I go big. I got a huge 2 liter container of it. Now it’s going to be an adventure trying to use this all with no waste. Oh baby, is this going to be fun.
And of course I got on the cherry bandwagon. Who can resist those dark red, juicy little devils. I certainly can’t.
But I’ve got some more very exciting news: Tomorrow. Camping. Here I come.
This is how I knew I was camping. Boyfriend: hey, you aren’t working from August 2nd to the 6th. Me: Um, what? What is happening then? What if this isn’t possible? Boyfriend: That’s too bad, I already bought your plane ticket, we are going camping.
We went to the same spot last year when we went camping, so I know just how gorgeous this place is. Needless to say, I am very excited. So I’m obviously not going to be posting in the next 5 days, but I will leave you guys with this awesome Cherry Mango Coffee Cake recipe.
Warning: This Cherry Mango Coffee Cake is addicting. I had this slice in the below picture, and ended up slicing myself more slices until 1/3 of the cake was gone. I’ve got no self control. But with the combination of mangoes and cherries: two of my favourite fruits ever, who could resist?
