There is an old Russian saying: when he got nothing else to do, the dog licks his balls. That’s why I baked this cake.



I forgot to mention that the recipe came from David Lebovitz.I made some of his recipes before. I didn’t have cardamom, but I followed the rest of the recipe. Cake tastes pretty good but make sure you peel of as much of the white pith as you can, it adds bitterness.

Errr… I don’t know about dog balls, but that cake looks good, and you have to share the recipe with me.

hows it compare to pineapple upside down? Looks tasty.
2 guys walk past a dog while it is licking its balls.
First guy says ” I wish I could do that”
second guy says” Dont try it , he bites”

That would be like comparing (pine)apples and oranges!

I have been known to throw pastry in the trash while sceaming obscenities. I hate to bake cakes, cookies, all kinds of pastries.
Consequently, I bake alone. This looks good. Not sure where it will end up tho.
