Contrary to public belief we are not reacting to the water. Don't get me
wrong that ish was cold, but our photographer (a friend of ours) was saying
some rather inappropriate things. Fun times!

Friday, January 06, 2006


I know this is very similar to the cookie recipe but well Linds is a large cry baby. And well Carly doesn't like tequila...


Best Ever Rum Cake
1 or 2 qts rum
1 tsp. sugar
2 c. dried fruit
1 tsp. soda
Brown sugar
1 c. butter
2 lrg. eggs
Baking powder
Lemon juice
Nuts

Before you start, sample the rum to check for quality. Good isn't it! Now go ahead, select a large mixing bowl, measuring cup, etc. Check the rum again. It must be just right. To be sure rum is of highest quality, pour 1 level cup of rum into glass and drink as fast as you can. Repeat. With an electric mixer, beat 1 cup butter in a large fluffy bowl. Add a seaspoon of tugar and beat again. Try snother cup. Open second bottle if necessary.

Add two orge laggs, 2 cups fried druit, and beat until high. If the druit gets stuck in the beater, just pry it loose with a srewumdriver. Sample the rum agin, checking for toncestcity. Next sift 3 cups baking powder, a pinch or rum, a steaspoon of toda, and a cup of salt or pepper (it really doesn't matter). Shample the bum agian. Sift 9/2 pints of lemin juice.
Fold in schlopped butter and strained nuts. Add 1 bablespoon of brown sugar, or whatever color you can find. Wix mell. Grease the oven and turn turn cake pan to 300 gredees. Schmeells goo. (ead you hartout Aunt B!)

If 'very similar' translates into 'exact same, but with rum'... then yes! Yes it IS very similar, isn't it?

Um, insert more whining here. Probably about pizza, and chocolate, and how red nail polish clashes really really bad with red hair. (Who knew?)

Maybe she just had crappy tequila?

Unlike a lot of things, I found out that wine and whiskey, especially, do improve with price. There's definitely a difference between $40 Herradura and $10 Jose Cuervo, just like there's a big difference between a good wine and two-buck Chuck.

On the other hand, there's no way I'm putting my Herradura tequila in a baking recipe...
