My new funny cake doesnt suck! I did have to watch it like a hawk to make sure it didn’t bubble over. I ended up spooning some batter out about 15 minutes in because it started to puff up too much. The risk in spooning batter out is you can get some of the chocolate with it and end up with a mar

Foodie Alert 🚨

In the mood for some Italian? I’m talking REAL Italian cuisine. Check out Grassa Gramma in Louisville Ky. Perfect for a romantic date or just a catch up with some friends. The food seriously is good though, I rank this a 10/10. ⭐️ #italiancuisine🇮🇹 #louisvilleky #lemon #foodies #likes
