Birthday Cake for Doggie Dear. Banana Carob Oat Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting
Ingredients
2 ripe bananas, mashed
4 tbsp honey
1 egg
2 cups water
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup carob chips
1 cup peanut butter
4 tbsp honey
1 egg
2 cups water
3 cups whole wheat flour
1/2 tbsp baking powder
1 cup rolled oats
1/2 cup carob chips
1 cup peanut butter
DirectionsPreheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Using nonstick spray, coat an 8-inch cake pan and set aside.
In a bowl, mix the bananas, 3 tablespoons honey, egg and water together until combined. Then stir in the flour, baking powder and oats. Pour the batter into the prepared pan and sprinkle the carob chips on top. Use a fork to slightly mix in the carob chips in a marbling fashion; the chips should be slightly visible on the surface.
Bake the cake for 1 hour. Check and bake for an additional 15 minutes if you insert a toothpick and it does not come out clean. Allow the cake to cool in the pan for 30 minutes before transferring to a rack to cool completely.
As the cake is cooling on the rack, mix the peanut butter and remaining honey in a bowl until thoroughly incorporated to create the frosting. Using a spoon or spatula, spread the peanut butter frosting over the cake.

HOW TO MAKE AN EASY TRIAL VERSION OF BRAS
We all have a little different figure even if we may have the same bra size. That’s why it’s wise to make a trial version of bras first. By fitting it, you will see what pattern adjustments might be needed. This post shows how to make a trial version of bras easily, fast and at an affordable price. There is no need to attach any elastics or other niceties at this stage (except in this particular model #4800, you could see and feel how “strong weapon” the support tape is by attaching it even if only to another cup)
Use a foam lining or some other non-stretch fabric as a cup material.
Bra band can be made of a cotton fabric or similar.
Cut the bra band wings much longer than marked on the pattern at centre back.
Use a bias binding as an underwire casing material.
Pin the strap elastics in place and tie bra band wings as a bow. Don’t tie too tight as this will ruin the shape of cups.
And voilà, your trial version is ready!
Tip for fitting a trial version: lift the straps a little by hand because the bra band made like this does not provide any support.
