Dear Hannah, I wanted to praise your incredible passion for baking delicious treats for your family. However, you are making it very difficult for me (your mom) to stay on track with my post-long-winter-fluff unpurging plan and would appreciate you finding a few dull recipes that won’t be as difficult to resist. THIS cake was too crazy good!
I love you,
Mom
