Hope everyone is enjoying whatever season they're in. 
Mind you, 'winter' in NZ is rather a notional concept. Right now, it's 58F and sunny at mid morning. Not the sort of winters I grew up with.

Yeah, but you guys used to be infected by Vikings who probably considered Ireland a tropical getaway...

So I had my work appraisal today.
Last year I got two tickets to the movies.
This time I got a pay rise. :-)

I just bake it with yellow cake mix. 1/2 cup of melted butter and brown sugar in the bottom of the pan, add the pineapple and maraschino cherries, if that is your thing, then pour the cake mix over it and bake. Might need to bake a little longer than the directions say. About 25 degrees lower too.
When I make it I replace the water called for with the juice from the can of pineapple...super delicious!

But did you get enough to cover popcorn and a drink in that raise?

Thanks kitty and I like the idea also of using the pineapple juice. Mmm I think I’ll try making it this weekend.
