I cook dinner 365 days a year. I have no desire to fuss for the 4th. of July this year. I just threw some hotdogs on my cheapo Sanyo indoor-grill, opened a can of Bush's Baked beans and nuked em' and called it dinner. I just wish someone would cook for me once in a while.

Happy 4th. everyone!

The cake is tasty. I will decrease the sugar next time and bake in a smaller quantities. That may be the trick to keeping the fruit from sinking to the bottom. Smaller cakes cook faster before gravity takes over and the fruit sinks to the bottom. This one filed my 12x9 spring-form pan.
