Fantastic Features and Some Pouting

Grab Button Here



Thank you everyone that linked up at last weeks linky party.  I had a hard time choosing my favorites (what's new).  I also have been having a hard time leaving comments on blogs that require you to sign in to google.  It's been going on for about 2 weeks now.  Is anyone else having issues?  Google will not let me stay signed in, and it redirects me 2, sometimes 3 times to enter my password, before it will let me leave a comment rrrrr...."Google why have you forsaken me"...... (in my most overly dramatic tone, cue lights, and drop down to my knees "why oh why Google" , end scene. LOL ok enough theatrics and me pouting, let's get on to the features.

Root Beer Chocolate Butter Cake and Giveaway Reminder

Chocolate and Christmas time, go hand in hand for me.  Inspired by Pinterest, we made some festive "Reinbeer", but instead of using beer, we used IBC Diet Root Beer. Then I got to thinking how root beer and chocolate would make a great combination.  Thus my Root Beer Chocolate Butter Cake was born.  This cake is so easy, you hardly need a recipe for it.
