All Hail Pineapple Upside Down Cakes

So a few weeks ago Jaslynn came to visit on her pre-birthday weekend and we had so much fun. Of course we went out for dinner a few times and it was a slightly rainy weekend so we had lots of comfort foods like grilled cheese sandwiches and cake. I say it was slightly rainy because one day when we were having our grilled cheese deliciousness lunch it started hailing. Now I am not talking about your normal rain with a smattering of hail type of weather occurrence. I am talking about the sky opening up and it pouring down balls of ice rather than rain. Being the mature adults that we are, we immediately ran outside and started trying to catch and eat the hail. Then when we got bored doing it we thought it would be neat to see what the hail landing in the pool looked like. Did I mention it was hailing really, really hard? So we ran the three buildings over to the pool and discovered that it was raining as well because we ran through quite a few very large puddles. Though I did have a very strong urge to play slip'n'slide across the lawn, I managed to stay upright. After playing with hail for about 20 minutes we went back to eating our now cold grilled cheese sandwiches.



That night we decided to celebrate wearing dry pants again and baked pineapple upside down cakes in my pineapple cake pan. They were so cute and so yummy but I think we filled the mini pineapples a little full...
