I don't know why I always seem to make things out of season. It's not intentional, but I do seem to crave certain foods more when everybody else in the world is ignoring them – maybe it's my affection for the underdog!
Anyway, for whatever reason last week I got a mad craving for pear upside-down cake. I've never made an upside-down cake, and the most common one seems to be pineapple, which I'm not a big fan of (in things. I love it fresh), so it didn't make sense that I would want this specific baked good, but there you have it. I'm just a slave to my cravings (and no, I'm most certainly NOT pregnant).
