apple upside down cake...delicious

i found the recipe for this on Pinterest...of course.  yes, I am mildly obsessed with Pinterest, but i have made a deal with myself, as long as I do something creative, bake, do some home remedy, it is not a waste of time!

here is my list of things i have seen on Pinterest and actually tried:

faux calligraphy(more than once!)

baking soda for boiling eggs(easy off peel, it works!)

scarf  folding tutorial

this cake...

tons of art projects with Herc

and i cant remember what else, but i have.

i followed THIS recipe from King Arthur Flour, and changed a few things, cause i didn't have all the ingredients.

the recipe called for corn syrup, i used maple syrup.  asked for ground ginger i substituted allspice, and my husband was supposed to bring home apple cider and claims someone took it from his cart so i used water.  it was pretty easy and turned out great! i made it twice by request:)
