Crazy Cake: Not my recipe. Try this out in the red Weavertown Cookbook or google online for similar "wacky cake" recipes. Here's what I did!
Dry Ingredients:
3 c. flour
6 tbsp. cocoa
2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. salt
2 c. sugar
Wet Ingredients:
3 tbsp. oil
1 tbsp. vinegar
1 tbsp. vanilla
2 c. water
Mix together dry ingredients right in an ungreased 9x13 pan. (I mixed mine in a separate bowl and then transferred to two 8 inch round pans-- greased and floured, and 12 cupcake liners.)
Make 5 holes in dry ingredients. Pour oil into 3 of the holes. Pour vinegar in one whole, and vanilla in the last whole. Pour the water over the entire mixtures and stir with a fork until well blended.
Bake at 350° for 45 minutes. Or if you're doing small cake pans, watch carefully and remove when toothpick comes out clean.
Sour Cream Chocolate Frosting:

Your cake looks great! I just wanted to give you a tip. If you have a chocolate cake and dust your cake pan with cocoa powder instead of flour, you won't get white residue on your cake. Someone gave me that tip once and I've done it ever since.
That's brilliant!! Thank you 😊
Oh wow! I’m really late with this but what a great tip! I’ll have to try!
It's just so wonderful how you interact with your kids. You and Josh, going camping, stimulating their minds. Thank you guys for being responsible, loving parents. Seems like a dumb thing to say but it should be highlighted more in today's world. Also I'm going on vacation this week and the prep is brutal. Lol. So I'm right there with you preparing everything.
I have a chocolate cake recipe similar to the one you showed. When my girls were in high school they would make one and eat it after school before I got home from work. I caught on to this little trick when it seemed Hershey cocoa was on the shopping list every week! They were good cleaner uppers….. but they finished it and never saved me a piece….. probably how they got away with it so long! Loved watching your camping trip and making so many things over the fire. 😀
That is hilarious! My brother used to get a piece of bread and put butter on it, pop it in the microwave, and then sprinkle sugar on it and he would always make two pieces (one for me). I think this was our version of this.
Watching Evonnie dip her burger in the salad dressing reminded me of my oldest son. He dips “ALL” of his sandwiches in ketchup! I thought he would grow out of it but he is 51 years old and still has this habit. I asked him one time if he did that when he went out to lunch with a business associate and he said “you know, I guess I do”. He went on to say that he had done it for over 40 years and he just did it without thinking. I found it humerus and thought to myself, well I guess we all have our “habits”.
Yeah that's true! some quirks just stick with us!
outgrowing? don't count on it
. I still dip a.burger in Bob's Blue Cheese dreasing, fries too!
I never thought of doing this & I don't know why! I love dipping fries & veggies & stuff. Now I'm going to!
Lol my son was addicted to ketchup as well! He would even dips his pretzel sticks in ketchup!! 😆
I love dipping hot sandwiches. The one at Arby's is the best. I haven't eaten there in years.
I’ve been binge watching and finally caught up. Watched a man who traveled to various places and spent the day with Mennonites. One of your vlogs was listed. Thought I’d take a look and been enjoying your vlogs ever since. Whether your vlogs are planned or not - they are all interesting and fun to watch. Looked like a fun camping trip! Loved the food - delicious!
Looks like a great time.We used to camp all the time when our kids were little.I think all kids should have that experience.We don't watch football.We weren't ever big fans but when they started all the kneeling and stuff like that we don't pay any attention to it anymore.
This was super fun and cute to watch, loved it!
What a fun camping trip!! And Evonnie and Fletcher are just precious! ❤️
Hi Megan . Thank you for letting us be a part of evonnies birthday party. The bike you got her has just the perfect combo of colors that you all like. Happy 4Th Birthday Evonnie. so proud of you.
Love these videos with this and that things.
Looks like you had some great family time. You're truly blessed.
Woo-hoo loved the piece together post!!! Great job !!! Keep the good stuff coming & Happy for You too
The way you interact and go that extra step with your kids is so sweet and encouraging ❤️
I have to roll my eyes on the fact that you sadly have to defend drinking coffee while pregnant.
My kids are 38 and 40.. we ate what we wanted , drank coffee and all the things . They all survived !! Good golly Megan you just do you girl !!
enjoy that coffee Megan! xo
Yes!! Enjoy the coffee while you are pregnant! I drank coffee with my pregnancies whenever.
I really enjoyed going along on your camping trip! What a great weekend filled with simple fun! Fall camping sounds ideal.
So love all your videos! I’m so happy that you invite us along. Both the more structured and vlog style are wonderful. Both give us the feeling that we’re just getting a chance to hang out with a good friend ❤️
I feel like I’ve been camping for the weekend! So relaxing! Thanks for sharing Megan♥️
Happy birthday, Evonnie!!!
Neat trick with the napkins. Love how you made the cinnamon rolls.
Your family is very lucky Megan you're full of energy & enthusiasm for all the things! The games, the flowers, the food all extra even IN THE Woods LOL. This was a fun vlog. 👍💝
I love watching your videos.! And your camping trip looked like so much fun!
Love the frequent every day life videos! Also love getting recipe ideas from you, it’s just one of the many things I enjoy most about your videos 😊
Such a sweet family. Blessings and Happy Birthday Vonnie. 🎂🎈🙋
You guys are too too cute!! I absolutely love that your brought two coolers of water and used your bottles instead of plastic!! WTG!! Every little bit helps!! :)
Enjoyed this vlog alot!! Fun enjoying your adventures with you! Happy Birthday!!
Wow Megan, you make camping with kids look easy! Looks like a wonderful time!
Megan, I love EVERYTHING you post! If you make it and post it we WILL watch so just keep making what you make because we love it!!! Thank you so much for making these videos.
Loved this vlog. Amazing energy you have for your family and for making special moments for them. I can’t imagine the organisation needed to get all the stuff for food, activities
, birthday party etc on top of the normal camping gear. The first scene in the camper with the wind blowing made me feel so cosy and loved the stone painting and apple tasting. Totally going to borrow those ideas! Was exhausted for you as you headed home to all that unpacking. Supermomma! Hope it didn’t take too long…. Best wishes from the UK.
Loved this peek into your life! Thank you for sharing!
Great video, camping is always a great time, being out in nature. Glade she had a Happy Birthday out in the open. 👍❤️🦋🎂🎉
You are the BEST Mom! You know your proprieties and your kids are going to have MANY precious memories. This blog reminded me of our family camping. I just loved it and especially bringing a little home with us on the trip! I noticed the cloth tablecloth on the picnic table! I did the same thing!
Love your videos that include the kids. ❤️❤️❤️
Love how the kids used the picnic bench as their table. And it was fun to see the Jiffy Mix; those are made a few miles from where I live in Michigan
I enjoy and appreciate the variety of vlogs that you share. Some vloggers put out the same kind of content, and while I enjoy the people, it sometimes gets boring… not yours because it’s often something different. Thank you!!
What a fun relaxing time!! Hugs from Missouri 🤗Happy Birthday sweet girl!! Real life is best!!
I COMPLETELY AGREE BACON MAKES EVERYTHING BETTER!!! I love this video and throwing in different bits. Absolutely love Evonnie's reaction to her cake and her new bike with the flowers and butterflies
Love these type of videos!❤
You’re the cutest little mommy!Great fun activities for the kiddos and loads of delicious camping dishes!! ❣️❣️❣️
I love learning new things from you. You are a born teacher!
Happy birthday Evonne! Looks like lots of fun on your camping trips!
Happy Birthday 🎂

Hi, Happy Birthday Evonnie!. Great video. Thanks for sharing.
I think I needed this fun vlog. I love this style. It's a small vacation from the to-do lists and keeping up.
I love your content, especially your fall videos
I wondered about that gift when you asked Fletcher if he wanted to ride Evonnie's bike. Thanks for taking us along on your camping weekend. It's fun to see what others do when camping.

I’m loving these frequent vlogs! I know baby is on the way so no pressure! Big hug to you!
Awe lovely Yvonnie !! Looks like a fun trip !! X
Loved this vlog, I loved caravan holidays when I was a child, I used to love the sound of rain on the roof.
My children are now 27 and 24 and I have such fond memories of going on family camping trips with our pop up camper. Enjoy every minute and soak up the memories. You do such a good job with your children! Motherhood is a blessing ♥️
Your videos are so relaxing and motivating to watch. I especially loved this video! You are truly inspiring! Thanks for sharing your life with us. :)
I watch all your videos and this was the best. I love everything about it.
Really enjoyed this style vlog Megan! Happy Belated Birthday Vonnie, hard to believe she’s already 4!! It was beautiful where you all went camping! Sending love & prayers 🥰❤️🙏🏻❌⭕️
I know! I started my channel before she was even one!
What a fab trip... you must have been so tired... its all of the clearing up after... I loved Evonnie's bike and the spoke flowers...xx
God Bless from the UK xx
Happy Birthday, Vonnie !!!!
Evonne was so adorable to see. I am still smiling from that birthday party scene.
Lots of fun camping with little ones. Lots of work for mom and dad but the kids will always remember these fun times
Greetings from Scotland. Really enjoyed this vlog and am so impressed that the birthday cake and cupcakes arrived onsite safely 🤣. What a lovely wee birthday party in the countryside. 🤗🍂🎂
Loved this vlog so much! Thank you for sharing. I love camping!
Wow your camping trip took me back to when my children were young. We had a trailer and spent a lot of our summers camping. Such great memories you are making. Your coffee set up was the same way I would do it too! Nothing like a quiet morning camping sitting outside reading and having a yummy coffee. I love watching your precious family and your lifestyle. I hope to make a visit to Lancaster one of these days. ❤️❤️❤️
Loved this vlog!!! Your enthusiasm in all is contagious.A suggestion when kids are napping is o join them and take a power nap.Your body will love you and you will recharge. Cant wait to try your chocolate cake recipe. Think ill add some instant coffee granules to deepen chocolate flavor!! The children are adorable and they have the most beautiful eyes!
Hi Megan, love your videos knowing your focus is on younger mothers and family life. I am 67 years old and I enjoy your family life and the children. I also find you can learn something new no matter what age you are. Saying that you try to live an intentional life and being ambitious inspires me as well. I think I will be picking up many of those books you are reading. Thank you for such encouraging videos.
Loved this style of vlog!
Pieced together vids are the best. Keeps my attention. I was born in Columbia have seen Pa. Since I was 10 love seeing when you travel around or even go to the shops
Love love love this style of vlog
Love love this video the baby bump is too cute
I always enjoy your content! Casual, planned, whatever ☺️ i work full time from home for now, and I enjoy living vicariously through your adventures 💗 my days all look very similar in this season of life.
Awe happy birthday sweet girl!
Megan, you are doing a beautiful job taking care of yourself and your little bun in the oven! Not sure why people need to act like a Dr and tell you what you can/can't do. You're grown woman and pretty sure you know what you are doing (this is your 3rd baby). Enjoy your cup o Joe and yes moderation totally is the key, to everything really 😉
I so enjoyed this video. I would like more like these. I think it packs more into a video this was. Your children are so cute together. Bonnie is so attentive to Fletcher. Happy Birthday Vonnie 💘
Each time i watch your vlogs, i think it’s my favorite, then the next one is just as great. ❤️ love your little family. Your recipes snd ideas.
Great vlog! Loved it!
I just met you in a local café and you are as sweet and wonderful as you are on here! I’ve been following you for over 2 years now and I love your videos ❤️❤️
I love this style video. It looked like you had so much fun.
You look adorable and cozy...yes, I completely understand about my veil going on just right....it can really be a struggle @ times...Evonnie and Fletcher look so big ....
I also understand the whole veil fitting just right. It can be a struggle from time to time. I think your hair and veil looks so neat every time I watch your vlogs.
I totally agree that salsa makes everything better!!! Fun video!!
Just watching old fall vlogs… they’re just comforting lol
What a fun weekend!!
I love your video Meghan!
🤗 Glad everyone had a good time!
I really loved this vlog. The way you mother your children is so precious. Cant wait to see the next gift from God. Take care the time is quickly passing before your new son will be here. Love, love your vlog....
Looks like a great camping trip. Thanks for sharing. Happy Belated Birthday Vonnie🎉🎉🎉🎂🎂🎂🎂🎁🎁🎁🎁🎈🎈🎈🎈 love this video you guys are great parents!!
Oh man, the music and scenery in the first few seconds!! ❤️❤️❤️
Fun video...my family was a camping family but we only did tents and even though I have fond memories of swimming in the creek and lake, cooking on and sitting around the campfire, nature walks etc...I'm not much of a camper now unless it's with a camper and lots of the luxuries from home!! Thanks for sharing all your adventures...praying for you in these last few weeks of pregnancy!!
