Re: Calling all bakers

 

Mary,?
no, one wouldn't make it every day or eat it every day. Although I've made 2 this week and they are both mostly gone. One was a chocolate tres leches cake that my daughter wanted. We had 4-6 people in the house eating it. The other was this recipe for Thanksgiving at my sister's -13 people consuming it and my sister taking some for herself. I only have 2 small pieces left after my son and DIL left yesterday.?

I think I already said I might make one for my Conversational Spanish class next week. After that it will probably be another 5-10 years before I make another one. That seems to be about how frequently I make it. When I do, we enjoy it and when it's gone, it's gone.

A lot of people are telling me that they are moving to N. Carolina to escape our taxes. That seems to be the most common place I am hearing about these days so it doesn't surprise me that you are getting all this development. The golfing folks move to the Myrtle beach area (lots of people from work), the people I canvas and the electrical inspector on Wednesday are probably going to be more rural I guess.?

Jaya,

Thank you for this recipe.? I had misplaced the original.
A whopping 400 plus calories per serving for similar recipes, but no one would eat this every day, so who cares?

Raleigh was dead as a door nail at Thanksgiving, which was great.? No traffic and almost tranquil for walking.? We still have lots of fall leaves, so all was golden and red with temps in the 50's.? This town is bursting at the seams with high rises going up everywhere that include grocery stores and other shopping sites, office buildings, apartment/condos.? All of it is vertical space and it's a real departure from the development we are used to seeing. We are not used to an urban Canyon environment, but downtown and midtown (where we're located) are turning into that.? We're tucked away in a little forested ravine, but less than a mile away is congestion and bustle.? I am not horrified by this.? In fact, I like the bustle and availability of absolutely everything.

Fiber related:? I ordered most of my Rowan Felted Tweed for Marie Wallin's Virginia from Deramores in the UK.? I had to cancel my first order b/c I missed a color and got a confirmation of the cancellation and a credit card refund.? I received the complete order I placed for the yarn and book within a two week window, no problem.? Then last week, another Deramores package arrived with the yarn from the cancelled order.? I've emailed them, but no response yet.? I could knit an XXL sweater with all of this and having this extra around definitely runs against my new "no stash" rule.? I'm in limbo with this extra yarn:? I can't sell it, use it or give it away.?

Hope everyone had a happy Thanksgiving.

Mary.
