Deliciouso....mmmmm.....


Tuesday night my family was lucky (and ailing) enough to receive a treat of epic proportions from our dear and lovely friend, Kirsten Naylor...dinner. All of it was yummy, but what I really want to focus on was the cake she baked and was actually embarrassed to leave with me. She didn't think it looked right and was worried it might not be done...little did she know.

Okay, so I called her and this is how she made it (let me just add, it's delicious if served warm...another of her worries):
*One French Vanilla cake mix - mix (with an additional 1/2 cup sour cream) and bake as directed on package.
*When out out of the oven and still warm, frost with a mixture of powdered sugar, milk, butter and almond flavoring (measurements will be edited in later...after I've experimented).

Serve like I said...warm.

Our heartfelt thanks, Kirsten. You're a real Idaho gem!

Playing an old game.....

..... Ally and I. It happened as we were driving down Ustick Rd. the other day and saw a car with a Hawaii license plate.... then 20 seconds later Connecticut and Pennsylvania.  Now, if you've never been on Ustick Rd, you might not understand the significance of that. Ally got Alaska yesterday. Guess I better get out more.

Thanksforgiving

'Thanksforgiving' is the title to my Thanksgiving Pinterest board.... And now looking at it, I just saw it in a whole new way.... thanks + forgiving... instead of, or in addition to thanks + for + giving Interesting.... wouldn't it be awesome if we all could just forgive others of their shortcomings and be grateful for them as they are and accept them at face value instead.... the way we hope they look at us? Today I think of so many things.... What comes to mind: St. George - spent many Thanksgivings there while growing up and always spent time horseback riding over that weekend 4-day school vacation Dang!  In the middle of making this list I just remembered I forgot to make the Corn Soup... ugh... The 'Turkey Bowl' LeSueur Pumpkin Crunch Torte... I made a half this year which is baking (hopefully... something's up with my oven) as I type.... and man oh man, it sure smells good!
