SInce the show has been over I have found myself baking every night, making good dinners once again and catching up on house work. It is true, my house was a disaster, fabric everywhere, 4 glue guns in various rooms, hammers, paint, sanding blocks, burlap and junk everywhere. No joke. If only I was brave enough to show photos.
Last night I made one of our family favorites, Lemon Olive Chicken and a Paula Deen, Apple Cake. See below for the recipe and photos.
My two friends, Bev and CB {also vendors at RR} had a fabulous booth. I picked up this vintage coffee urn. I took a close up of the inscription. I still need to look it up to see what August Suffion is.
Loved this saying. Might just have to make this.
Monday night is a mini date night for Jay and I.
Which in turn is actually spending a half hour together at the Goodwill. He found this really large apothecary jar. I had seen this at John Bob Cool Junk's space at RR and knew exactly what I was going to put in it.
Ta da!! Don't you just love?!
Paula Deen's Fresh Apple Cake from Georgia
I still had some apples leftover from work and felt like baking so I searched online and stumbled across this recipe. The reviews were all good, so I decided to give it a go. I brought it in to work to celebrate a birthday and it was a huge hit. I highly recommend trying out this cake. I will probably make it again this weekend to share with friends.
The recipe calls for the icing {mainly butter and sugar} to be poured over the cake immediately after removing from oven. I was a little apprehensive at first pouring this over the top, but Jay convinced me to follow the recipe as it was written. And I was not the least bit disappointed when it was all said and done.
This cake was so very moist and flavorful.
