@AZtortMom Welcome back!
Although I don't know if you'd remember me or not.
Not yet.
And any attempts to deliberately try to win the Wooden Spork will result in it being awarded to someone else.
You make us happy as well.
Which part of “MINE” are you all struggling with? No I could cheat and do dumb to guess and get a whole bunch of negative points but I’m gonna be more subtle about that when I’m winning my next spork.
Hey cold dark/pastel lord. It takes a true master to be able to win a Spork. As per my other post and I am much more subtle.
There is nothing brave about the wrong guesses. There is much bravery about stealing my spork.
The grand daughter that I was the day care giver for from her birth to about 8 or 10 had her first baby on Aug. 31st. So now I have three great grandsons.
Would you believe that he was a wild Kitten that I had my Dad trap for me to have as a mouser ?? It took 3 weeks at my house in a cage for me to tame him enough (and train my dogs not to eat) to be able to turn him loose.. He was awesome the first year feasting on Rats, mice, squirrels, and even killing snakes.. But then he figured out that I would feed him and his hunting skills became substandard... and then I got Cinder and put in the doggy door... Now he’s never outside... INCONCEIVABLE!!!!
ME TOO
I have no idea what Welsh rarebit is.... one could say my lack in education is superfluous these days!
ME TOO!
Me thinks you may have a problem with little minx’s!!! ?
While it may seems implausible, I have complete faith in you!
Ditto!
CONGRATULATIONS!!! This is a magnimonious occasion for which can only bring exponential amounts of joy!
Mmm, you are right I did. But then maybe I didn't. I might have just been leaving the best for last.
Here’s my unequivocally handsome Ready To Go.. I got his lab results back yesterday and they were all pretty good. His globulin was a teensy bit high indicative of some sort of inflammation but nothing serious.. I hope the cooler weather brings on easier times for him.

Argh.. So for good or bad my nutty butt decided years ago to always make my kids' birthday cakes. And whereas I have for the most part enjoyed it and used it as a relaxation; this year the girl threw me a curve ball. Tomorrow is my daughter's 17th. I asked her what kind she wanted. Marzipan cake?? What?? I see marzipan and think candy or maybe rolled into a sheet and used as a fondant alternative. It's almond paste and capable of being homemade sooo.... But the little nutcase says she is -sure- she saw the marzipan being put into the cake batter for flavoring. I can't see how something thick and gooey would work into the batter correctly unless it's in a "broken down" state like maybe just the ingredients?
I can even see using a nut flour to make the batter. Although our friend google tells me there is more than the almond and pecan flour I was aware of. Any and all nuts can be used apparently so that makes me have some ideas. Walnuts-with maple. Hazelnuts with chocolate for a nutella type cake. Chestnuts with apple and cinnamon. Cashews and carmel. But then are they truly flour and not considered a meal? And am I going to end up with a crumbly cake versus a sponge? Or an overly oily cake because of the natural oils? Or do you roast the flours to get some of the oil out?
Never made marzipan from scratch. Never made a nut flour from scratch. But apparently both are possible with my lovely Kitchen Aid gadgets.
I have been searching pinterest(where she says she saw it) and allrecipes.com and google. And see nothing. Wondering if it's a cultural type cake from a region where marzipan is a celebratory item used frequently? Global friends are encouraged to help -PLEASE-. ANYONE got an ideas? Otherwise I guess I am going to make an alternative(MEG version-- Mommy MacGyver) and use almond flour and make marzipan into my fondant with chocolate because chocolate makes everything better?????
Thanks for letting me ramble.

Is it to use the words exponential or inconceivable as many times as you can?
