COUNTRY BAKE SALE


Old and Everlasting, just outside Cazenovia, NY is having an autumn country show this weekend, Saturday, September 17th 10am to 5pm and Sunday noon to 4pm and they've asked me to do a bake sale! So I've been busy baking like crazy. I'm making strawberry cupcakes, key lime cupcakes, blueberry cupcakes, lemon cupcakes, vanilla and chocolate chip cupcakes. I'm making 3 different pies, my Mom's recipe for Southern Fried pies, several different kinds of cookies, chocolate crunch bars, raspberry jam and Scottish shortbreads. Busy, busy, busy but oh so much fun! It's tough not to taste everything, but happily, I don't have time for that!! See you there........if you're local!

I LOVE AUTUMN!!


I really do love autumn! In fact, I think it is my favorite season! One of the many many things I look forward to are the raspberries! They are so huge and so luscious! They make great jam, and it doesn't take many of them to make up a jar. So, that's what I'm up to today. Makes my kitchen smell so great! You just want to pop some toast in and sit down with a cup of tea, toast, raspberry jam and ME!
