Toby and I are having CAKE for DINNER because we are ADULTS and can do that!

We had a couple of friends over today and had a late, large lunch of balsamic-glazed ribs, BBQ beans, my grandmother's potato salad*, followed by a dessert of orange buttermilk sherbet (made by Toby) and Ding Dong Cake. The sherbet tastes like an orange Dreamsicle and the cake tastes like a Ding Dong. CHILDHOOD MEMORIES OMG. Anyway, we didn't get hungry until just now and Toby said "I'M HAVING CAKE FOR DINNER" and I said "SO AM I" and WE MADE IT HAPPEN.

AND YOU CAN'T STOP US.




* See, I love telling people this because they go "OMG those are the BEST recipes!" and then I tell tham that she got it off the back of a Dijonnaise bottle. Which I'm pretty sure is true, given that it calls for Dijonnaise and Hellman's mayo by brand name. But I still like it. :D

'Dijonnaise'? Is that an American thing? Do you have Miracle Whip down there?

EDIT---
{ http://www.vachon.com/en/pastries/jos-louis/ } We have these in Canada. It's not marshmallow filling though, and is chocolate coated. I favour the 1/2 ones.

Dijonnaise (http://www.hellmanns.com/product/detail/97900/dijonnaise-mustard) is essentially what you get when you mix Dijon mustard and mayo together. It's not a brand name (https://www.google.com/search?q=dijonnaise&client=firefox-a&hs=xzL&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&channel=fflb&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ei=5vOFU6iXGNGLqgbZz4GoDg&ved=0CE8QsAQ&biw=1068&bih=676) although it looks like it. :) And it is YUMMY!

We've got Miracle Whip, and Hellman's, unless you're west of the Rockies, in which case it's Best Foods (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/02/02/food-products-with-different-brand-names_n_1250304.html). Plus a bunch of other mayo brands, but as it's pretty much all mayo to me and I don't use much of it, I don't really notice them. :)

And since you probably don't see my posts since I'm on LiveJournal:

I do see your LJ posts! You're on my LJ f-list. :) (I don't comment much--on pretty much anyone's journal--because I am a slacker. But I read them every day unless I'm out of town or something's going on.)
