That’s a picture of my Mom. I have always been insanely attached to her. She is the center of my world and if you know me, there is a good chance you know my mom too. We are inseparable. She is my best friend. She is my confidant. She is the strongest woman I know. I respect her more then anyone or anything. I just LOVE her. I always want to make her happy or let her know how special she is to me. This momma’s day we will celebrate with a sweet mango up-side down cake. She loves mango, and up-side down cake. So why not combine the two? This is for my Momma and maybe yours too…. Sweet Mango Up-Side Down Cake!
Enjoy!
