“In like a lion out like a lamb” is often used to describe the coming and going of the month of March.

This year it’s all about lions, at least in Minnesota. 

We had a snowstorm to herald in March and it’s currently snowing like crazy. Yes, snowing. To say that I, and others around me, have cabin fever is a huge understatement. Tomorrow is April. Mother Nature, pick up the clue phone. Enough already.

So what does this have to do with food? Well, I could direct you to the lamb recipes we have on Betty Crocker here and here, but I don’t eat lamb and, while I don’t have numbers or research to back this up, chances are slim you’re thinking of serving lamb tonight for dinner. (And if you are, well good for you.)

Instead, how about some lamb cake? No, not cake made from lamb. Ish. I mean a cute little cake in the shape of a lamb, like this, this and these. Or, you could go with a lion-lamb theme and make these. Yes, Easter has come and gone, but maybe if we hunker down and all make something sweet we can hurry this thing called “spring” along. Hey, it  can't hurt.
