I’ve had the craziest week and half and just when things need to start getting back to normal I came down with a cold and nobody’s got time for that! It’s been slowly making it’s way around our office and I’ve been trying my best to escape it but with all the traveling I’ve been doing it is bound to happen. Tell me your best cold remedies!

Enough about my boring cold, let’s talk cake!

I too didn’t really know what a poke cake was before I started my food blog. Seriously though, these cakes are always a hit and usually super easy to make. Plus the flavor combinations are endless.
