Good morning Nancy & Friends. I made a cake the other day and
it is absolutely delicious. Still have
some as there is just the 2 of us. I like to share but so
many friends have left for the North that we
have to eat it all ourselves?? I don't think it was posted
by anyone in this group as I usually include
the name and this had none.
