Black Onyx zucchini cake may be my favorite zucchini recipe to share with you. You probably thought that I was finished sharing zucchini recipes but no! This is the most moist, deepest, darkest chocolate zucchini cake ever. It pretends to be an overly indulgent cake but in reality it is simple, easy and not overly […]
Southern Living’s Classic Southern Pound Cake
I can’t remember the last time I made a pound cake. It’s not something I’ve done many times before. Maybe once or twice. I’m not sure why because they sure are delicious. Buttery vanilla flavors, the perfect dessert to serve with a scoop of ice cream, whipped cream, or summer berries. I always look forward […]
Lemon Bliss Cake – A Little Sunshine On A Gray Day
Old man winter showed up this weekend in the form of 10″ of snow accompanied by intensely cold temps. Gray skies plus snow make for a bleak weekend. I made it all better by baking a Lemon Bliss Cake , bringing some sunshine to an otherwise sunless couple of days. Lemon anything is my favorite. It ranks higher […]

Peach Upside-Down Cake
Do you remember the first time you made an “upside-down” cake? I recall being apprehensive about flipping the cake onto a platter, worried about a first class kitchen calamity. I mean, really, holding onto a hot cast iron skillet with one hand and a serving plate with the other, timing the flip while not shattering […]
Once A Winner Always A Winner
About 12 years ago, when LuLu was in high school and Miss T was just a little thing I was given this cake as a thank you by the mother of another high schooler, who was tagging along with my family on a ski vacation to Taos, New Mexico. It was “spring break” week and […]
I Have A Sweet Tooth
Only one day until my CM gig. I’ve been thinking about it often. Who will be there? How many questions will I be asked, and about what? Will I be given favorable reviews at the end of class? There are only 6 seats available. I feel good about that! I enjoy speaking before a crowd. […]
The Cake That Was Not Meant To Be Photographed
Today I’m taking the vintage quest to New Mexico. I have a copy of a cook book named New Mexico Cookin’, published in 1976. Notice the cost was $1.29. I challenge you to find a new cookbook for so little money. This book came from the collection of my hubby’s great-aunt Esther. She was a very […]
