Last minute things

So I started out working on the cake I need for Carla’s Birthday, good thing I have till Saturday.  Well I don’t have enough 8″ round pans and had ruled out the square due to storage and presentation issues.  That means I am baking 10″ round cakes, in order to get the cake tall enough I have to get more cake mix.  🙁  After already mixing 2 and pouring into pans I run out to the grocery, hey while I am there I will TRY to get some flake salt and course salt for the cookies I am desperate to make.  First of all Payless (Kroger) had the cake mix on “sale” 3 for $5.00 excellent they were 88 cents at Wal*Mart.  Found the flake salt $3.39 for 4.25 oz and they came complete with a large black hair.  Sugar, ha! I settled for some of the raw beige looking stuff.  While I was in the produce I discovered this odd little thing called a Pluot(3278).  They were about $2.00 per pound so getting one didn’t seem like to big of a deal however they are dense little bugers and it was 88 cents.

KLT was just sure this was a giant peach/grape combo but in-fact it is plum/apricot.  Who knew? What did I think about it? I really enjoyed it, juicy and sweet.  It was a tick messy but I didn’t care it was a wonderful new experience.
