We start our game very easy, first we count the aisle, then we read the list in the aisle and last we look for the toys with the picture I show to the girls, as a good VeggieTales always said, togethers is always easy and better to find the solution, so we play until we find the toys.

This is a great recipe if you want a bread pudding with a different twist, cheese and pineapple are the perfect combinations to make it more interesting and a little different from everything else.

Alternate dry ingredients with the milk until the mixture is combine.
Ok so I use a Wilton mini bundt cake for this recipe, but if you don’t have one just use your normal bundt cake pan, don’t buy one just for this recipe.
Add 1/4 cup of the mixture to each cavity and bake for 40 minutes or until golden brown and cook in the center.
To make the drizzle just combine the powder sugar with the lemon juice until it is runny but not super runny, don’t let it run :).
Drizzle each mini bundt and enjoy.
