Cinnamon Sheet Cake

Dear Arizona,

I missed your birthday – what can I say? I’m sorry.

And such a big one -100 years- that’s impressive. You still look great. Are you using StriVectin?

Would you consider forgiving me if I bake you a cake? A big, fat, frosted cake? I’m getting out my whisk and hoping for the best…

I think that I remember you telling me that you LOVE canela, just like I do. So I’m making your cake with fresh canela!

I toasted the whole sticks and ground them to a fine powder in my spice grinder. The flavor is going to blow ya mind.

Look at that batter – perfect! Golden and fragrant! Spicy and sweet!

We’re getting it done.

And did you really think that I would skimp on the frosting? For your 100th birthday? Get real. I’m a lover, not a fighter.
