A little impromptu "picnic" in the mall's food court over the weekend necessitated the making of a super quick, scratch dessert -- mug cakes in mason jars. I mixed the batter in a bowl and divided between 4 small mason jars. Next, I microwaved for 1 minute. Screwed some lids on and we were set for dessert. Yum! Along with sandwiches and bananas, we had a nice little lunch all packed in under 10 minutes.
The food court at our local mall has lots of tables, some near a large fireplace, others up against large windows. It makes a nice place to take a "picnic" on a cold, winter day. Afterward, we did a little window shopping and got in a good walk. Malls are also great places to go for a walk when its cold or rainy outside. Just leave the credit cards at home.
