I'm a teacher who loves to cook, plan and decorate for parties when I'm not too tired! Just my son and I at home now and he loves spicy food so I've just begun to try these types of recipes. appetizers... My grandmother made the most fantastic soups and home-made bread. Not everyone in my family likes to cook so unfortunately, the recipes have been lost..if she even cooked with any. Once, while talking friends, I accidentally grabbed the removable center portion of my tube pan to remove the coffee cake from the oven. The whole thing went on the floor. According to my guests, I didn't miss a beat and had another one in the oven 10 minutes later. Too many to center out one.
