Well, they measure ingredients by weight, not by volume so my first attempt went "THUNK" as it landed in the garbage can. Fluffy it was not!!! But I had the correct amounts for the sauces (white and chocolate) that made the cake so delicious so I improvised the cake part with batter recipes I already had. Thankfully my second attempt was successful. But looking at your pics of pie makes me want to succumb and get out the Tenderflake lard and my pastry cutter. Thanks for the inspiration! Glad to hear that G. is recuperating in time to enjoy his birthday.<br />EllabieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-496613789732162242014-10-17T18:07:32.487-07:002014-10-17T18:07:32.487-07:00Yum!

We enjoy all the calories we want, knowing it won't happen often. :) I used to bake pies and bread a lot when I was a stay-at-home mom. Now the energy and time just aren't there. You did well! :)Lisa Richardshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00567160304529796810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7580372117701042127.post-28011278915123107512014-10-17T18:01:59.098-07:002014-10-17T18:01:59.098-07:00Yum!

I must practice and try harder.<br />I'm glad your son is supplied with pie as he recoups! Pom Pomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01524994024698986829noreply@blogger.com
