Use an electric mixer to combine the cake mix, vegetable oil, pineapple juice, and eggs in a large bowl. Beat about 2 minutes. Pour the batter into the prepared pan. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until an inserted toothpick comes out clean and the cake is just starting to pull away from the sides. Allow the cake to start to cool for five minutes, then Invert the cake onto a serving platter. In a small sauce pan, combine powdered sugar, pineapple juice, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat until the butter has melted, stirring frequently. Use a toothpick to poke holes in the cake. Pour the warm glaze over the cake. It’s going to seem like a lot of glaze, but just keep pouring. Allow to cool completely for 15 to 20 more minutes on serving platter before serving.

Get to Know: Everything Life Brings Everything Life Brings was founded as Katwalk Planet, in 2010, by Katrina Mosley- Army Veteran, Publisher, Creative Director and Author of the Book Collecting Wooden Nickels, with the lifelong dream of starting a Publishing & Media Production Company- Taking photographs, publishing magazines, developing custom products (custom soaps and gift baskets) and producing signature events (Expos and Festivals). Based in Mobile, Alabama.
Katwalk Planet was created at a time when it seemed impossible for talented individuals and those seeking to start businesses to get the coverage and exposure needed to boost their creativity, talents, new products or business without spending a ton of money or knowing “The Right” people. Initially, what began as small project soon expanded to a large platform and destination for everything life brings with a focus on inspiring and empowering.
With growth as a prominent outlet in 2015, Katrina, now Katrina Mosley Stinnett and husband, Quentin Stinnett- Marketing Director, changed the name of the company from Katwalk Planet to Everything Life Brings to expand the reach and connect more with the audience. Over the years, Katwalk Planet / Everything Life Brings has had the pleasure of decorating, photographing, planning, and creating beautiful custom pieces such as custom soaps, flower arrangements and program booklets for events around the world- from small events inside of barns in Alabama, to Island beach resort events in St. Lucia, and events in beautiful cathedrals in Europe.

Our goal is to impact the lives of individuals one at a time by empowering, connecting and growing together through Everything Life Brings! Katrina worked many years in the fight to end homelessness in the housing first initiative through the Department of Veteran Affairs Program- (SSVF) Supportive Services for Veteran Families. Katrina's time in this field was spent as Site Manager of the Huntsville, Alabama office where she was quickly promoted to Senior Site Manager/ Processing Manager over the Birmingham, Huntsville, Tuscaloosa, and Tuskegee offices to perform quality assurance on all payments processed. Katrina eventually made the move to something she truly enjoyed which was field work as Case Manager/ Housing Specialist. As Case Manager/ Housing Specialist she had the opportunity to be up close with her fellow Veterans, hear their stories, connect with them, walk with them as they went through the process of going from homeless to housed, and connect them to community resources to help them maintain housing stability. Quentin worked many years in concrete helping to pour foundations for homes and buildings across North Alabama and the surrounding areas. Quentin also works in mechanics helping people who have issues that arise with their vehicles get back on the road. Quentin is a friendly individual- he never meets a stranger; And that personality has helped the business reach even more people and places through his marketing and promoting. The greatest thing they have in common is their passion for helping others. The pair spent years inspiring and empowering. Together they continue to face Everything Life Brings will staying focused on their mission!
