Lunch out in fashion & a recipe

I wasn't surprised when a request for the Cinnamon Loaf Cake recipe was included in a comment yesterday. Trish from http://katniplounge.blogspot.ca/
is in the mood to bake.
As requested, Trish...
You will need
1/4 cup butter
1 cup white sugar
2 eggs
2 cups flour
1 cup sour milk  (add 1/2 tsp of vinegar to milk and let stand 2 minutes)
1/4 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking powder
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. vanilla

Mix 1 tsp. cinnamon and 3 Tbsp. brown sugar (set aside)

Mix the dry in one bowl
Mix the wet in another
Add dry to wet and mix

Put 1/2 of cake ingredients in pan then a layer of cinnamon and brown sugar.
Add the other half of ingredients and another layer of cinnamon and sugar on top.
Bake 1 hr. at 350 degrees.

I'll bet she has a lot of feline helpers in her kitchen. Trish is owned by 13 fabulous felines and if you have not popped over to meet them and see their amazing digs then you should get on over there right now.

I had lunch out today with a gal that can really sport a hat.


Not everyone can wear a hat but Gwyn's suggestion is to go light on jewellery and flash a beautiful smile. It helps if you have bambi eyes, too.
Works every time.

and now a Bird Tip for the day...

If you're wondering what to do with those old boots hanging around the closet this might be a suggestion.
I know if there is a Chickadee in your area, she would love these digs.

I'm now off to meet two new kitty-clients. You know I'll show them off soon.
Have a great day!

hugs, Deb =^..^=

  8. My husband has made about 30 of your loaf cakes since you posted the recipe sometime last year. That might be where my extra 30 pounds have come from. Delicious!

  10. Gwyn is totally adorable! Love the boot nest box, too. I saw a chickadee gathering fur I'd brushed from Tristan the other day. That will make a nice soft nest. :)
