Meryl, you just gotta stop this! There aren't enough hours in my life to make all these desserts!

I am heading to the kitchen, preheating the oven RIGHT NOW! I looked at the site
and I stopped reading after about three posts, just drooling all over my keyboard.

Meryl, I am determined that this need to bake is a genetic (dis) order of some sort. It just is not
possible to take the baking out of the girl!

"Hello, my name is Steve2 and I love desserts . . . "
I really love to bake too, not only a stress reliever but such a real outlet for creativity.
As I gain experience, I realize I'm channeling my maternal grandmother who was "the baker" of the family before she passed. She was a small but feisty old-world broad who took chit from no one. We loved her so.
Fortunately, I work with a large cast and crew so whatever I make can be tasted at home, then pawned off as treats to "those-who-woill-eat-anything-not-nailed-down". Phew!

When I make Cranberry-Orange Nut Bread, I top it with a cardamom & sugar blend. Great flavor combo.

Then there's the Cardamom-Plum preserves I make every spring. Really like that flavoring.

Not yet -- it is printed and on a magnet on my refrigerator. Had to get book club out of the way.
I did make the almond plum cake last week and it was tasty! Great flavor, and the plums softened up into a liquidy gel that was really nice in there. I'm making applesauce tomorrow, and maybe I'll get to the cardamom cake for the weekend.
When is the wedding?

We leave tomorrow! Wedding is Saturday with a 'costume party reception' at her house smileys/smile.gif
Actually, the wedding will be in Fredericksburg, with the reception the next night back in Austin. Hope y'all are getting some nice weather all set for us - can't wait!
