Mango-Orange Upside Down Cake

My aunt came to visit over the weekend and our family celebrated the way we always do...potluck time!

I love potlucks! It's just a food-explosion-extravaganza-palooza. Very exciting. What was even more exciting was my uncle had donated a box of mangoes my way earlier in the week. They were perfect for this cake, and this cake is perfect for many events. It is light and fruity and great even after you accidentally overdo it with the food. Okay, I take that back. There is no such thing as overdoing it with the food.

2011 Christmas Dessert

In a continuation of the Christmas cookies, I also made dessert for my family Christmas Eve potluck that we had. This will also be a quick post...I do apologize!

I was really glad that everyone enjoyed the Bundt cake, considering that most members of my family do not enjoy the taste or smell of cinnamon. (The spice isn't that strong in the cake. A lovely light aroma, really.) According to my aunt, she thinks cinnamon smells like...well, maybe I shouldn't write it here, because I honestly don't know where she got that idea. She's such a silly joker, all the time.
