Welcome

My grandmother always said that the kitchen is the heart of the home and I agree. So, please, come on in, get yourself a cup of coffee or tea and sit a spell...

Lemonade Layer Cake


Lemonade Layer Cake Recipe - Fruits - MyRecipes.com

My husband's birthday was this past weekend.  He loves lemon and requested a lemon cake.  So, I made him this one.  It was delicious and lemon is not even my favorite flavor for cake.  I am a diehard chocolate fan, what can I say?  My husband loved it, too.

I ran into a glitch.  I thought I had more powdered sugar (for the icing) than I in fact had.  It was the middle of the night and I live in a small town.  No all night supermarkets here.  So, I was forced to use granulated sugar.  I first put the granulated sugar in a bowl with the cream cheese, hoping it would dissolve some.  Then, I finished the recipe as written.  The icing was a bit grainy, but was nevertheless delicious. 

Note to self:  Make sure I have plenty of powdered sugar on hand.
