I am vowing to do better when it comes to keeping up with my blog. Over the past few months I have started 3 different blogs and it's very difficult to manage them. I am planning to make cupcakes tonight - so they'll be up here!<div>Tootles!</div>SweetToothhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13727871047487479340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561900540376300178.post-65247657036111290202007-12-29T10:49:00.000-05:002007-12-29T10:51:54.132-05:00Apple Pie...My oh my!Last night I made an apple pie using... (enter suspenseful music) apple pie filling. And what a bad idea that was. It was way too runny. So today, I am planning on making another one from scratch.<br /><br />In about an hour or so, I'll start on my <a href="http://thepioneerwomancooks.com/2007/12/p-p-p-pie_crust_and_its_p-p-p-perfect.html">pie crust</a>. This should be exciting as I just bought a pastry cutter two days ago. I promise pictures of this one. I have to find a cool apple pie recipe though.

I came across the recipe on <a href="http://thefablifeofi2daj.blogspot.com/">The Fabulous Life of I Dot's</a> blog.<br /><br />Recipe:Yellow Cake -<br />3/4 cup butter (1 1/2 sticks)<br />1 cup milk<br />2 cups sifted all-purpose flour<br />2 3/4 tsp baking powder<br />1/2 tsp salt<br />2 cups sugar<br />1 tsp vanilla<br /><br />Caramel Icing -<br />1 lb (2 3/4 cups) light brown sugar<br />1/2 cup butter (1 stick)<br />7 tbsp evaporated milk<br />1 tsp vanilla<br /><br /><br /><br />It looks like a real headcaver (extra sweet)! So I think I may try to do something different with the icing. I'll put up photos later!SweetToothhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13727871047487479340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7561900540376300178.post-15489113785341954812007-12-26T21:31:00.000-05:002007-12-27T14:06:45.722-05:00My New Gadget!So over the holidays I got a new surprise!<br />A KitchenAid KSM150!<br />See the pictures below...<br /><br />My first sin of sweet sugary goodness will be a Sour Cream Pound Cake. This is a recipe I found at my grandma's house.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp1.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3PTlpUmL4I/AAAAAAAAAAM/WDfm_-poIg0/s1600-h/102_2032.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5148691442715471746" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp1.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3PTlpUmL4I/AAAAAAAAAAM/WDfm_-poIg0/s320/102_2032.JPG" border="0" /></a> <strong>Sour Cream Pound Cake</strong><br />2 sticks margarine<br />1/2 cup shortening<br />3 cups sugar<br />3 cups flour (plain)<br />6 eggs<br />1/2 cup milk<br />1 cup sour cream<br />1 tsp baking powder<br />1 tsp vanilla<br /><br />Cook at 325 degrees Farenheit for 2 hours<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp3.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3P3CJUmL6I/AAAAAAAAAAc/z-RYKfYk3cc/s1600-h/102_2039.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5148730415248715682" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp3.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3P3CJUmL6I/AAAAAAAAAAc/z-RYKfYk3cc/s320/102_2039.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />So I just recently tasted the cake... When I sliced it there was a big ripple going throughout. What is that all about? Any ideas? Plus it was a little dry. I think I will try making something different tonight.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3P3V5UmL7I/AAAAAAAAAAk/UZjV_F6Yuw0/s1600-h/102_2041.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5148730754551132082" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_FOjVzzZMsJM/R3P3V5UmL7I/AAAAAAAAAAk/UZjV_F6Yuw0/s320/102_2041.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><p>Here is the sad streak in my cake ---></p>SweetToothhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13727871047487479340noreply@blogger.com
