As normal, I lay in my bed last night going over everything in my head. Hmmm, what should I make the nurses?
I have only made one cake from my Viking cake class so I went through the list in my head. My favorite, the upside-down apple cake, may not be large enough for an entire crowd. And heck, I didn't feel like making the caramel sauce. Instead, I opted for the Five-Flavor Pound Cake.
I don't know why you would even have to cook it. The batter is just fine uncooked. Oh my.
But I thought the nurses may appreciate the cooked cake much better. Bundt pans drive me crazy. While I didn't have any major pieces missing, I still doused the top with some powdered sugar to try and hide the crust that came off in the unmolding process. It was still warm when I handed it over to the eagerly awaiting nurses. They're so cute.
And for you, the wonderful recipe.
Not anything to do with the cake, but I had to share these wild turkeys that decided to sit on a neighbor's porch. I think it was momma and two youngins. You can barely see the one next to momma sitting down. I forgot to tell the neighbor when I spoke with her today. Oh well.
The weekend is here! It's supposed to cool off. That, I can handle. Yaya!

The cake looks delicious and thanks for the recipe. I'm sure glad you took the cake class! ;D
Love the photos of the turkeys on the neighbors porch! Too funny!

XO
p.s. love that art deco looking header!
Yum! Thanks for the pound cake recipe. I will definitely try that as soon as the weather cools off. No way am I turning on the oven now!
This looks delicious! I have no talent for baking or cooking -- no imagination. So I stick to drawing and painting
Wild Turkeys....how wonderful. Be interested to see if they are still around after Thanksgiving!!!!
Omigosh that cake looks delicious! I've saved the recipe and will give it a try soon. I know what you mean about removing a cake from a bundt pan...I've heard a few swear words escape from my mouth while doing so! lol
Hey, we get stray cats at our door, not stray wild turkeys! hehe xoxo
There's something about a cake with powdered sugar sprinkled on it that just makes me smile. They look so lovely, like the slightest dust of snow (which actually, I don't like when it's really dusting. Much better on a cake.) Bet they love anything you bring them!
