ONE MORE THING

 I have tried to take a teeny bit of the load off of SWMBO when cooking for "a holiday".

Granted.

It sometimes puts more of a load on her.

As I have pointed out many times, I am a very amateur cook.

And she's been cooking for over 60 years.

So mistakes happen on my ventures into the kitchen.

Like . . .

. . .well, let's not linger on that.

But I try.

And sometimes I succeed.

As in these dinner rolls I made for the Eater Extravaganza.




They're not bad but they look a lot better when I crop the photo, 

don't they?




Regardless.

We tried a couple of the lesser ones with a tad of margarine and 

they're pretty damned good.

I think they'll do.

CAKE

 Easter Sunday.

Or as I have renamed it, Eater Sunday.

I know, I know, I'm a heretic.

Be that as it may.

This heretic spent hours in the Taylor Family Bakery Kitchen Friday.

Most cooks would have spent about half an hour.

But I'm not most cooks.

I'm a beginner.

So it takes me a lot longer.

But here's the result of my labors.




Looks kinda unimaginative, doesn't it?

Here's a bit of a better look.




But for the big reveal, one I did not trust myself to do, I called in the

Master Chef, SWMBO, aka Judy.

And she, masterfully, did the honors.




Yes!

It's my very own (first) Pineapple Upside Down Cake!

Voila!

Happy Eater!
