This weekend marks the 194th semiannual General Conference for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. Amy’s family, like many others, has a tradition of a big conference weekend breakfast. This year, she’s decided to swap out the usual cinnamon rolls for a conference breakfast cake.
She was inspired by a large loaf pan she saw at a local restaurant, and was determined to get her hands on her own. She found one on Amazon, and then bought another from Orson Gygi (16×4” Pan, $18).
