ok, here I go.. ready to go sew and this is what is crossing my mind..
I love you trueellly, trueeeeelllleeee. yup I am singing as I write. I am off to play with fabric. I think that rust stuff that looks like bricks would be a great start and oh yes the huge yellow dots that have squares in them.. that would be perfect. blue trim and I am golden! or dead when my partner gets it and sees that! |
Yellow dots with squares and blue trim? Don't forget the orange & brown plaid for accent! :thumbup: :D
|
Let's get started Quiltwoman!

It is fantastic. We halved the recipe, using 4 eggs and everything else in 1/2. It was so good!!! |

I'm the only one in my house who has sense enough to love coconut... Kif |
The recipe sounds yummy. When I was a kid the little school I went to made a breakfast bake dish that was similar, but it was called bread pudding, and they used cocoa for a chocolate taste. Everyone loved it.
I have been looking at different ideas, and looking through my fabrics. I keep going back and forth with my thoughts. I am starting to feel like I am on a sea saw. lol... |
I heard from my special partner today (Laquita). Yay!!!!!
Kiffie I love love coconut. |
MMMMMMM Coconut!!! My favorite addiction!!
|
My grandmother use to make the best coconut cake. She always used a lot of eggs, and beat up that type of frosting from egg whites and sugar. Then coated it all in coconut. Yummy!! She usually made her cakes with 3 layers. Those were the days. (not so good health wise I'm sure)

wait now... if we cant get coconut cake or French toast in the mail.. how about a mounds bar? I LOVE those but darned the are hard to get to before the man will snag them. He LOVES them too.. and is much faster than I am. darn it!
I pulled fabric yesterday but didn't get much farther. darn it! I remember I did not have Monday off but indeed have clinic this morning and well got all messed up with what must be done. so I turned off my machine (sigh) and got busy doing things that well didn't want to wait. (darned that microwave who keeps making a mess in there? oh wait its only me using the microwave.. how did that stuff get there? it wasn't there when I last used it? oh sure). |
Mmm...
Coconut cake the way Nanny made it. Oh. I. Am. In. Hog Heaven..as we say around here.. My Nanny (grandma) did the 3 layer deal, too. Frosted with 7 minute frosting. Man, I'm salivating just reminiscing about it.. And her pineapple cakes...yum.. Not just the pineapple upside down, those were awesome as well. But she made one that was pineapple flavor, again 3 layers, and had the prettiest yellow frosting that had fresh pineapple tidbits in it. Perfect peaks in that frosting, too. Mom and I were just talking about that cake the other day, and we cannot find Nanny's recipe :(. We've looked all through Nanny's recipe books, and I've done some online searches, but nothing so far seems like it's it. Sigh... And her homemade cinnamon rolls.. homemade breads with fresh apricot, peach, or pear preserves.. Man I'm in sweet remembering heaven!! Kif |
I'm feeling my blood sugar spiking just reading your post, Kiffie!! I would absolutely LOVE your grandmother's coconut cake!!!
|
Unfortunately both of my grandmothers died when I was just a baby. I don't remember either of them. My mom was the baker but cookies where her specialty. In fact, the neighbor kids called her "cookie". She passed her love of baking down to me. I love baking anything especially if it is from scratch. I don't do too much of that because I'm the only one who eats it.
|
We had a latecomer...so now I playing too!!!!!
