I know this topic has been discussed here at DC, but all the threads that I found were really old, so, if I may...
The holiday season is fast approaching and this is when I start to think about what I want to give folks. I prefer to make things myself, rather than buy 'things'; my Mother taught me that it means much more.
My husband and I are going visiting to my Mother's home in California, and then to our very dear friends on the trip back into Arizona. I can many things for my Mom through out the year, when certain produce are in season, ie Meyer Lemons, Rhubarb, Green Beans, etc.
Yesterday I made a recipe of Rum Cake and baked them off in 2 half-sized bundt pans. One for Mom and one for Mrs. DF.
I woke with a start this morning! DH had gotten up long before me and I was in a panic!
I had wrapped the cakes up in cellophane bags, all pretty like, and left them on the kitchen counter, there best on the 2nd or even 3rd day, and intended to put them in the deep freeze until we leave for our trek.
I just KNEW that my husband was going to break into one of them and have that for his breakfast, he had been begging for a piece last night, DENIED!
I'm so proud of him for his restraint
What's up your sleeve?
