The Mrs. and I spent our Thankgiving with family this year. I volunteered to bring a dessert and resorted to an oldie but goodie.
One bowl chocolate cake! This is actually a really simple recipe that I've baked before (can't take risks when trying to impress the Mrs' family).
Seeing other people's Thanksgiving creations has inspired me to cook something special near/before Christmas!
