I'm talking about CAKE, lol! I rode my exercise bike and watched the Food Network Show, "THE BEST EVER....." I am craving junk; I know it is cause I'm stressed a bit and stressed=desserts spelled backwards. Thank you everyone for your kind comments; I am going to go back and respond. I guess bottom line for me, I need alone time to create, write. My Mom is a night owl and a talker, so mentally I am trying to figure out how this is going to work. She has had two people inquire and walk through her home, since it went on the market. It was listed yesterday afternoon; yes this is my childhood home, by the bay.
This is the glassed in porch I mentioned in my article and see the green butterfly. I mentioned in my poetry post, last week. This glider was also mentioned in my article. It came with the home; it is really old.
It is sad, a lot of us are dealing with issues, since our world isn't in the greatest shape right now. I would like to see us vote in our politician's raises, not them. In fact I think they should go without pay for awhile and go to a pseudo homeless bootcamp. They can eat trash, be dirty and go without their comforts. Then maybe some things would be resolved differently. I can wish.... I don't usually go this route on my blog; I apologize for interrupting the Food Network. Now, back to our feature...
My son's birthday is coming up, less than a month. My kids both have their favorite cakes. His fav is this Chocolate cake with Whoopie Pie icing. It is a combo of shortening, marshmallow fluff , confectionery sugar and vanilla. I will find it and share the recipe, if anyone is interested. If you add coco powder to it; it has the taste of a 3 Musketeers candy bar. My daughter's choice, for the past 7 years is a French vanilla cake with Orange icing, yes tinted orange. This year, he isn't sure what he wants. For fun I was hoping you would all share you favorite birthday cake combo. No, you don't have to share the recipe, but the BEST BIRTHDAY CAKE EVER, you have had so FAR. If you like, you can share details of that memorable day, by combo I mean ice cream. Oh, my favorite so far is this moist white cake with Fudge frosting. I love so many flavors of ice cream, but anything with coffee n' chocolate wins me over. Best birthday, last one was pretty good, but so far my 25th can't be beat. It was the birthday of Naval Aviation in Pensacola, FL. The whole week was a celebration, air shows, etc. I went to a Bob Hope show, saw Sammy Davis Jr, Jonathan Winters and Brook Shields. The last night was my birthday and the fireworks were spectacular. It was like watching a grand finale performance, for almost an hour. What about you; what is your BEST?
This was my son's birthday cake, last year. He wanted a Dexter cake, think Red Velvet with Cream cheese icing with fake blood.

KarenG-Yes, lots of happy memories; it is sad! She talked about doing that, but my Mom isn't that social; she use to be. She loves to garden, so we offered again. We will have to make it work... It is sad to see the home go and sad to lose my nook. I guess I will have to buy more suitcases and hide my craft stuff in them ;D Thank you for sharing!
I turned 42, had a great party, finished off 26 bottles of bubbly and I know I had a cake but for the life of me all I remember is red with white icing. :)

My best cake was the chocolate oreo cake with yummy chunks of brownies on top. A chocolate lover's dream. My sister is awesome :)
Donna-Wow, sounds incredible! Lots of guitar parties and watching thunder showers on that porch~ Thanks for sharing; your sister is awesome!
Jules-When my head isn't pound; I will catch up you! I never go to bed early, tonight I am...head and teeth hurt(sinus for sure,now). Yes, that sounds like some cake ;D
I recently make my significant other a birthday cake that was lemon with blueberry compote filling and lemon frosting, it was amazing. For my birthday I always pick chocolate cake with mint frosting. Crumb, now I want some cake!
Thank you, yes my memories are tucked away for now. Writing about it will help! Thank you for sharing! I do love mint chocolate chip ice cream; I bet your cake is wonderful~
Kristin-How exciting, children's birthdays are so fun! Yes, both in birthday mode and my Mom's is the last day of summer, so I will be working on mailing the RED Summer of Color art and other things ;D
Wow, I bet you felt so big! Sad about your party being cancelled!
The Hawaiian cake sounds amazing~

Anthony-lol, I know right~
Thank you; I think it is allergies and we have a fire not far from where I live. The smoke is bothering everybody, when the wind brings it close. I'm near the Great Dismal Swamp.
