Oooh oohh...cornbread casserole is the bomb!

Recipe here, but there are hundreds of variations it seems. I can't remember the recipe I used last time I made one.

Wow, Ali. that is amazing! Great job!

Aliantha · 12-17-2008, 05:22 PM

Thanks Bri. There's a lot of stick on stuff there of course, but doing that lattice work and then getting it on the cake was a challenge to say the least. lol

I'm glad it's done. I'd built up quite a sweat by the time I finished.

Ali. A great looking cake. I've got all the junk together for date nut bread, to be baked in the small Bunt pans. 6 per pan= 12. Maybe. If this goes bad, I'll be unhappy. The cost of 2 cups of nuts + 4 cups of dates.

Think I'll check the fruitcake seasoning, again.

Ali, that cake is beautiful. How will you bear to cut it?

We've managed to cut every one before. I don't think this one will be any different.

Besides, the funnest part for me is watching people enjoy eating it.

Your fruitcakes are gorgeous!!!

Yeah, those balls are 'heavy', but sooooooo yummy. You eat one. Then you walk away. Then you come back and eat another the next time you pass through the kitchen. Then you put them in the fridge. Then later you need to get the milk, and see them, and take out 2, one for now one for later. After you eat them both back to back, you force yourself to go to the basement to fold laundry to get out of the kitchen...

I should rename them PB Debbil Balls

LR...I think if my digestion was normal I'd be having the same troubles with those things. As it is I'm having a hard time keeping them away from the kids. lol

Oh wow, I made a batch of these today and they are awesome! The plan was to give little containers of them to all my relatives on Christmas, and I had to force myself to package them up before I accidentally ate them all. Tell Mrs. Glatt that our house is stealing her Christmas tradition from here on out.

I love anything pickled. Saying that, I've never had pickled walnuts. Not being big on nuts anyway, they might be a step too far.

The pickles are out in force in the fridge right now. Onions, beetroot, red cabbage, and gerkins. In the cupboard are Branston pickle and piccalilli. Oh and my jalapenos I suppose (never really thought of them as pickles but of course you're right).

busterb · 12-23-2008, 06:30 PM

I won't go so far as saying New Orleans pickle meat (for cajun red beans and rice).. But pickeled meat is the bee's knee for red beans and rice.
What I'm trying to say is, a coonass thing. Not just NO. And great for cooking any dried beans.

Aliantha · 12-23-2008, 08:46 PM

Mmmmmm...pickled pork...
