Comments (2)No problem. I tend to agree with you. When I moved out here, it was a HUGE adjustment to realize that I couldn't just buy the type of house I'd like (which isn't "grand" by any means). I couldn't resist mentioning the Bay Area thing! My house isn't the one I'd imagined owning one day, but I am managing to find some style in it....See MoreLet them (the birds) eat (suet) cake!

Comments (17)Glenda...I'm sorry; I didn't intend for the "onion bag suggestion" come across wrong. I know your Mom's were the fiber ones. I've used them, too. I just wanted to share what I'd read about the new onion bags. I was surprised to learn they're made of plastic now. I buy my onions loose, and hadn't really paid attention to how the newer bags are made. I have noticed plastic "burlap" bags at the feed store. That really blew my mind. I think you're just about the sweetest person sitting at the table. I always look for your posts and responses. I hope you know I'd never intentionally say anything to hurt your feelings. It wasn't meant that way... Big hugs!...See More"Packaging" sheet cakes??
Comments (23)Thanks, lizbeth, I'll be sure to try that. I mostly try to keep the wrap off the top of cheesecake or a fancy decorated cake, and a small toothpick hole could easily be hidden in frosting. LindaC, that would figure, it would happen to me and I'd still get frosting all over the wrapping. Except somehow or another if I happen to have marshmallows, I can pretty much guarantee that they are stale, LOL. I use them in the summer for bonfires, I used them to try to teach the pigs to use a "nipple" waterer (I failed, but they really, really like marshmallows), I use mini-marshmallows for the bottom of a waffle cone to keep the ice cream from melting out. But, somehow, I always have some left in an open bag and those are stale. Sometimes worse than stale and moving right into "hard". (grin) Then they get melted in hot cocoa.

Comments (20)Great story and love that cake. If I may ask, what do those rocky brown things in the upper area, like chocolate covered something, depict? Married Carole with a heart,,,,awww. It's a good thing you know what's good for him!...See Morenycefarm
