You know when you see something in a cook book or a food magazine that you like and you want to make, but you never get to actually do it? Yeah, me too. This time though I thought I will try this no refined sugar cake from Food and Wine Magazine. And you know what? I will make this cake again.

I discovered pasta puttanesca years ago when I was too lazy to go out to the shop and I had few ingredients in the fridge. Quick google search and pasta puttanesca appeared (btw google is life saver when you don’t know what to cook!).
