Morning guys! It's been a busy week. Watching the Depp/Heard trial... Mother's Day cake, that I made myself...for myself, but only took a slice... and Larry bought me a Cricut Maker 3...don't ask...He thinks I'm floundering. Burned out, so to speak. So, he got me a toy to play with. What a learning curve!!! Omg... it'll do a lot of crafts, maybe even fly (not really) ...but I'll be learning new things from now to doomsday! I suppose that was his original intention...but don't call me an ingrate quiet yet! We drove over to Consignment Furniture and I bought a desk in which I can house the machine...craft do-dads...odds and ends and bobbles. Goodness knows where all this will take me...I'll keep you updated.
Here's the Oreo Lemon Cookie Pound Cake I made...Dang GOOD! Very lemony!
People are always asking me how I get my cakes to literally, fall out of their pans with absolutely no breakage or crumbling...Just make the recipe below...store in the refrigerator, use it liberally on All your baked goods! Slather it on your pan! I love the stuff and No More expensive Baker's Joy! I know, I know...Crisco and dust with flour ...sure it works to but, too many steps when all you need is a brush and this recipe.
I used the food processor to crumble about 20 cookies...half in the batter and half on top of the lemon glaze.
Use your favorite basic vanilla pound cake recipe...I also added a small box of Instant Lemon Pudding...NO vanilla extract! Instead, use Lemon extract, 2 teaspoons.
There's SO many variations you can use... Can you think of one?
Larry also gave me flowers for Mother's Day...so pretty!
Love Italian Sesame bread! I can't make it for this price of $1 !!
Are any of you Cricutters??
My first project...Lolol...a vinyl bear...and only because the machine made me do it!
Well, Hope you all are well, safe and happy. I hope you Mother's out there enjoyed our special day! Father's Day is coming up...June 19th (America) I'd better get busy to find a revenge... I mean, a sweet gift for the Hubby.
Be kind to each other and make good choices!
See you at the trial!
