I made Coca Cola cake on the weekend. As it happened, our furnace motor conked out and it was a great reason to turn on the stove for a while!

There are definitely some "from scratch" Coke cake recipes out there, but you can also use a box cake mix and replace the amount of water or milk with Coke. I also used canned frosting for ease of use.

The cake smelled amazing as it baked, but it ultimately ended up being a tad too sweet. I'd try it again, but it's definitely a sometimes thing!

As I mentioned in my previous post, the motor on the furnace conked out. Even though it's not winter, it was getting down to 66 F and that's a bit chilly for the birds.

We called the furnace company and they sent someone out yesterday even though it wasn't urgent.

The good news? Because the furnace is still under warranty, the part was free! Whew! That was easily a $1000+ part and we only had to pay for the service call. The technician also installed a metal plate over the motor which should keep it from getting too cold in the winter.

It literally pays to keep track of all the appointments and installation dates...who doesn't love saving money? :-)
