The time I left my phone at home and then ate a chocolate cake made of pumpkin and spinach…..

I left my phone at home today and nearly hyperventilated.  I contemplated turning around and making an illegal up-turn, but I would have been late for work.  I do have some sense of responsibility.  Then I told myself I was a big girl and didn’t need my phone.  The fame could reach me at work if there was an emergency….alas, I only made it to lunch.  Waste of gas…there went my sense of responsibility.  Heck though, I made it until lunch.  Something to celebrate!!!  Nationwide is on your siiiiiiidddeeeee.  (Just a little ditty to worm it’s way into your brain.  I’ve been singing it the last two days.)

I’d really  like to know your thoughts on school busses that aren’t yellow.  They look a little creepy to me.  Like they are up to no good.  Except there’s a bank in town that has a school bus that is painted pink, and looks like a pig.  The only thing that bus is up to is Fun with a capital F.
The real point of this blog is to share with you what is quickly going to be my new obsession.  Cake in the microwave…and it’s healthyish! 


I followed this recipe and substituted one egg and two egg whites for the egg substitute.  I used coconut flour instead of whole wheat flour, added three tablespoons of oats, and I used coconut sugar as my sweetener.  Then I topped it with some Trader Joe’s Cookie Butter.  

I should have smothered it and will definitely do so later tomorrow night.  The real success is that I tackled my husband to the ground and made him take a bite.  I had mistakenly let him see that there was spinach in it.  He also despises pumpkin as well.  To quote him, “That’s not bad.”
Ooooh my goodness, I thought it was amazing for being a somewhat healthy dessert.  If I really wanted to live it up, I could add some dark chocolate bits.  Ooooh here comes a wild evening later….geesh, I mean tomorrow night.

PS I refrained from making the title even longer.  You are welcome.

  1. Cake in the microwave, YES!!!
    School buses that are white are used to transport criminals and sometimes department of forestry firefighters, so they are either up to no good or up to no good. Lol!
