RiversideLen that basket weave is beautiful!

Today I baked a Apfelkuchen:German Apple Cake from One Acre Vintage-Pumpkin Patch Mtn. By Jennifer.
It was baked in a spring form pan with a batter base and apples on top.Mine didn't look like the picture,my apples seemed to be dry when it came out of the oven but as it sat it became very good it was sprinkled lightly with powder sugar.The base around the edges cooked almost like the crunchy part of a pound cake,which is my favorite part the crunchy top.It's OK,I used 4 apples that needed to be ate.So we have coffee cake.

Chocomouse I had a wonderful childhood growing up with lots of cousins.We had to hunt in the woods and around the place for stuff to play with,cans,we had sifted that sand with a torn up screen but I wanted that sifter.We use to play with tree moss for a shawl and long hair (I can't remember getting red bugs but I bet we did from the moss),making tobacco stick play houses,wonderful times.Yes I can laugh and have a big smile.

Good luck Mike,I can remember my Grandmother had a big white tin can that held about 25 or 50 # of lard and she used it for all frying and making biscuits etc.I use to sit and watch her make biscuits by hand,no spoons except to dip the lard out of the can and she made at least 3 - 9x12 pans of biscuits at a time.I always liked watching her sift the flour,it looked like it'd be fun.One day I got that sifter and slipped it outside to sift the sand we played in,mostly dirt yards then.Well I got my ass tore up when she found me and my cousins playing with it.No I never did it again.Great memories.

When I was a kid my Grandfather would butcher hogs and all the excess fat was put in a big outdoor iron pot with a fire under it they would cook the fat that had been cubed up into cracklings,then the fat was poured up and the lard was used for cooking.I've never did it but I have heard of people putting it in a crock pot and like overnight it would cook the fat out,if I were to do this, this would be the way I'd go.

[Joan Simpson]
