Cherry-Pineapple Dump Cake  

Posted by: Licel

I've made this cake many times already. My husband and my stepkids loved it. In fact, I just made this delightful dessert again today and our house smells heavenly! :)

Need a quick and easy dessert? This is it! Just dump all the ingredients into a baking dish, mix and bake - very simple but yummy and smells great! You can make it with just about every fruits available but using cherry pie filling and crushed pineapple is my favorite.

Here's how to do it:

You'll need: 1 can (16 oz) Cherry Pie Filling, 1 can (21 oz) Crushed Pineapple, 1 pkg. Yellow/White Cake Mix and 1 stick of Butter.

Grease the 13 x 9 baking dish and pour 1 can of Cherry Pie Filling. ( I used lite cherry pie filling so it wouldn't be too sweet)...

Next up, dump 1 can of crushed pineapple.

 Now, stir the mixture together. Once it's all combined...

 Sprinkle the dry mix (yellow/white cake mix) on top. Distribute evenly.

Then, slice butter and lay the pieces all over the top, distributing it evenly. Some like to pour melted butter. But really up to you. Now, pop it in the oven and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes to one hour (or until cake is brown and bubbly) and voila...

Cherry-Pineapple Dump Cake! Totally easy and yummy! Perfect for 1st time bakers like me. :) You can eat this with something cold, something warm or alone. :) Again, up to you.

Our Valentine's Day Celebration  

Posted by: Licel

...was just like an ordinary day. Nothing special or romantic happened yesterday. No surprises, no chocolates & flowers coming from my dearest husband. Poor me! :) Well, it's no biggie. It was by a choice, actually. We both opted not to do any extraordinary things nor to give gifts to each other, only this time. And we just stayed home, as well. For the past 3 years, we've been celebrating valentines by eating out. Now that we have a house, for a change, rather than go out and spend loads in a restaurant, we decided to stay in, crack open a bottle of champagne and cook. I cooked fried pork chop, corn on the cob, steam veggies & sweet potato, and of course, rice! :)) And I tried making tres leches cake for our dessert. I guess it turned out good because hubby loved it. :) We ended it up by watching Letters to Juliet...pretty good movie!

Though our valentine celebration looks like simple yet enjoyable and relaxing. Hubby and I really had a great time. We were able to spare ourselves from stress of overly crowded restaurants. What we do during valentine's day doesn't have to be grand or cost a fortune to be special. Being together is more than enough. I just hope that we'll all celebrate love not just on valentine's day but every day of the year.
