My love is like a red, red rose ...

... or rather a green, green fir tree that's newly sprung from a Bundt pan. A circle of fir trees, even! Clasping hands ... eh ... branches.



In other words, today I have once again succumbed to the lure of a Nordic Ware Bundt pan, in this case the holiday tree pan. But isn't it adorable? And please note the choo-choo train at the bottom rim. How could I possibly resist???

Okay, so I joined Weight Watchers two weeks ago, and cake definitely does not belong into the category of zero-point food, but I'm altruistic here: I'm thinking of others and the pleasure a cake baked in such a lovely pan will bring to them. Indeed, the purchase of the pan might turn out the perfect excuse for hosting a pre-Christmas tea party! :)
