little debbie christmas tree cake ice cream

 the company that puts out the little debbie inspired ice creams keeps them coming.

this time it's the seasonal christmas tree cake. it was ok, nothing really special.

weird weather

 

weather makes no sense sometimes. a couple of weeks ago we had two days of 40-ish degree temperatures with rain/snow mix and then that weekend it was 70-ish with sunshine.

more cake

 my brother's choice this time; better crocker butter recipe yellow cake mix with pillsbury funfetti hot pink frosting. i was really hoping he'd go with the funfetti aqua blue or the chocolate chip cookie dough one (i forget who makes that) for a big cookie mix you can get, but he is not a fan of chocolate.

the cake was dry & hard to frost because the top layer of cake kept coming off. the icing had matching hot pink sugar to sprinkle on top, but it would've been better if it was white.

so another one that's not really good. store bought cake is better.

halloween 2022

 if you're trick or treat-ing tonight be careful out there.

if you're luck enough to get candy on sale in the next few days, i envy you. wal-mart & target have been moving out halloween in favor of christmas. 

i wonder of the 50-75% off sales for holiday items near or after the holiday are a thing of the past?

honey vanilla cheerios

 got these from wal-mart the other day.

not too bad. one of the better flavors they've some out with recently.

when mixed with pumpkin spice cheerios (mentioned in the previous post) it almost tastes like a dessert of some sort.

pumpkin spice cheerios

 my brother ran across these in target & we decided to try them.

not horrible. basic fall/pumpkin spice flavor.

nothing special or something to get again.

another random cake

 this time it was spice cake with whipped vanilla frosting, both from betty crocker.

the cake was a lot more moist, but not much spice. the pumpkin spice cake we had from entenmann's had more spice.

the frosting was kind of like that homemade stuff you make with powered sugar & milk. 

not bad, but neither are anything to repeat.
