Lemon Poke Cake

I know, I know, I've been away for a while. I've been busy and distracted and bla bla bla...really I've just been too lazy to post anything. Sad. Well today I was pretty productive and made a seafood gumbo and a lemon poke cake. I used to make this lemon cake when I was 14 or 15 over the summer at the beach, so just the smell held some awesome memories for me. Well here's the recipe, and hopefully if there is any cake left I'll get some pictures up.

3/4 c water
1 .3 oz pck lemon jello
4 eggs
1 bx lemon cake mix
3/4 vegetable oil
juice of 2 lemons
2 c powdered sugar

Mix water, jello and eggs. Beat 1 minute on medium. Add cake mix, beat 2 minutes. Add oil and beat 1-2 minutes until smooth. Bake in a 9*13in pan at 325 F for 35-40 minutes. While cake is still warm poke lots of small holes all over the cake, mix lemon juice and powdered sugar, drizzle all over cake.
