A pineapple upside-down cake that's so simple and so good.
The best cook in one of my old offices was the cleaning lady. She was a good friend to everyone, a wonderful person. Whenever we had office parties, or group meals, she always brought something, or actually prepared the food in house, like our Christmas dinner. This pineapple upside-down cake was one of our favorites for its simplicity, but great great flavor. I’ve never been able to duplicate it as well as Livia made it, but maybe you can.
