Do you make your own birthday cake?
Comments (27)Cookie8, I almost always end up rewriting recipes, so I can make them in the order I need to. (Starting with preheat the oven to...) The way some recipes are written, reading ahead is necessary, although not always an option. I find it makes the instructions much longer, which makes the recipe look more intimidating. The truth is, if I can follow it easily to the letter, I find my results are more successful. Sometimes, I'll rewrite a recipe several times before it's where I need it to be. You didn't really ask, but I always get out every ingredient, bowl, spatula measuring cup/spoons and mixer that I'm going to need before I even start. I measure it all, and set everything on a tray, so all I have to do is mix everything together. (If a recipe has multiple parts, I set up different trays.) That way, when you read through the recipe, it's all set up and easy to ''check off'' while you're baking. I hope you try again. Determination is a fine quality to possess! I have an easy one bowl chocolate cake recipe, if you need something to go to, that's tasty, easy and worthy of a birthday cake. I usually make it with a Cinnamon Buttercream Icing, and get requests for it often. Just let me know if you'd like the recipe. Deanna, I always use the recipe on the back of a bar of Bakers Sweet German Chocolate. It's no secret, but rather more time consuming to make as a cake, than anything else. It's our favorite as the buttermilk always makes it so moist, and it's a cake that only gets better with time. We always make it the day before, so the flavors have time to meld. It's also fun to anticipate eating it, when it looks so good sitting under a glass cake cover....See MoreOrdering toys online-Aquaplay/Waterway
Comments (2)I bought a Brio waterway at a garage sale last year that had a few pieces missing. I contacted Brio and was able to buy the missing parts for under $10 (including shipping). I don't believe Brio is selling anything but the VERY expensive waterways new now. However, you can always contact Brio and they can tell you where to buy in your area, or if a catalog company purchased sets, etc. You could also put the set in the bathtub w/o water--they are supposed to have different possible configuration like the railroads do. Good luck!...See MoreBirthday cake recommendation
Comments (11)It depends on how your cousin is accepting deliveries. If she’s ok with bringing food right in she might be ok with accepting a floral delivery. We do not hurry to bring the mail or package deliveries into the house. We are fine with leaving them in the mailbox or on the porch for a day or two. I don’t think I would bring in a floral arrangement or even a box of fresh flowers...someone in the line may have sneezed on the blossoms. The fact that she is 80 would cause me to be extra cautious. Fresh food that comes in here gets a thorough and immediate cleaning and then sanitation of surfaces that are touched. It’s almost easier to skip eating....See MoreBirthday cake recommendation
Comments (8)I have baked the same cake our family prefers for birthdays for perhaps 50 years now. No one (but me) likes frosting, so they get it bare. It is a very moist, somewhat small chocolate cake that I bake in an angel food cake pan. When the kids went off to college, I started mailing it to them. Now they are settled and in their 40s, and I still mail them that cake, and their spouses and eldest grandchild. Bake a nice, heavy, moist cake, and wrap in well in Saran Wrap and a large plastic bag. Mail it in a box that is a nice, snug fit so that it can't bounce around at all--use packing bubbles if you need them. If you must include frosting, make it and put it in a little container to be smoothed on the cake when it arrives. A nice, moist, heavy pound cake would be good to mail too....See MoreIris S (SC, Zone 7b)
