Welcome to my review!

For my birthday this year I received a very special gift from my husband, Cody. He gave me a cookbook written by the most wonderful woman whom I have come to adore for a couple of years now. My boss got me started on reading this woman's blog and I have become more and more obsessed with each passing entry she makes. Sounds kinds of stalking like, but hey, its a public blog she writes! This woman is the Pioneer Woman. Her cookbook, Pioneer Woman Cooks. PW (Pioneer Woman) lives my life at a more extreme level. I can relate to her, cows, horses, kids, and especially the handsome husband. My Cody is quite dashing!


I am cooking up her cookbook. I will write reviews of the recipes she has created. The reviews will also include my family's thoughts of the recipes. This will be one way I can feel like I am friends with PW, we can cook together!

Give me a C!

And give me chocolate cake! My daughter and I are making Pioneer Woman's chocolate sheet cake in remembrance of the veterans today on Memorial Day. I am typing this as it is baking and the butter is melting for the frosting. And I am totally pioneer because where we live we can't get Internet on a computer so I have to use my cell phone! Lol! Old school baby!

I haven't made cake like this before where you cook the chocolate an add it to the set ingredients. Heck I don't think I've made chocolate cake from scratch before!

We are about to take the cake out of the oven and frost!!! Oh the temptation my daughter is having to just take the pot of frosting and run! Oh and I think I would join her and hide in the closet so baby boy cant find us!

Let me tell you the intense chocolate we have going on here! 8 tablespoons to be exact...in the whole cake and frosting package!

I have included some before and after shots of the cake as well as some yummy frosting dripping from the whisk. :) heaven I tell ya! Oh and that's my daughter helpin out so she can lick the bowl!

Now it's just time for the taste test! Drum roll please.....

Chocolatey richness so good! So rich I couldn't finish my piece! My cowboy loved it! Definite keeper and probably next birthday cake!
