Lemon-Lime Luscious Cake
Lemon-Lime Luscious Cake A different kind of poke cake! This one is flavored with refreshing lemon and lime and doesn’t use instant pudding! I have to admit that I don’t much care for the idea of the standard “poke cakes” that are making the rounds now. Mostly they appear to be too “wet” for my…

Most everyone loves potato salad, but this one raised the bar. My approximate ratio of “white” to “sweet” potatoes was about 2 to 1. But…

This is one of the easiest “specialty” breads I make. The original recipe came in the booklet that came with my very first Breadman bread…
Italian Flag Cake
Italian Flag Cake All it takes is a box of white cake mix, some food coloring and a few pantry ingredients for this spectacular and easy dessert. This was the biggest hit at my Night in Italy party last week! Who can imagine that a simple cake mix could be made into something that looked…
