Fabulous Rum Cake

 This recipe has become a family favorite.  I first found it in a magazine ad for Bacardi rum.  It became REALLY popular the year I ran out of regular rum and made it with 151 proof.  The clan loved it.  Recently, I’ve been using… Continue Reading “Fabulous Rum Cake”

Never Enough Cookies*

 Oatmeal Cookies With Dark Chocolate, Pecans and Dried Cranberries Since the school year is beginning for my younger deerslayer, I find myself thinking of packed lunches, things to pack into an awesome lunch box (which is important), and of course, cookies.  Nothing says love like… Continue Reading “Never Enough Cookies*”
