The new kitchen isn’t done yet, but the oven’s working, and I got to test drive it today. H recently made some wistful remarks about pineapple-upside-down cake, so that’s what I made. I think it tasted nearly as good as it looks – 1 can of pineapple slices + 1 yellow cake mix = 2 cakes, so in addition to the one we mostly destroyed today, I’ve got one for after church tomorrow.
Test run.
The phlox is simply beautiful this spring – I’ve been careful not to mow that area until it’s had plenty of time to go to seed and the patch is expanding nicely.
The phield of phlox again.

I am so wanting a piece of cake! Yum! And the nature photos are yummy too. I have always loved mayapples. As I child I could come up with all kinds of tales regarding elves and fairies in the mayapples.

Mmm, cake. I do believe I have the ingredients in the pantry. But first we need to finish the lemon meringue pie.
Good looking oven, what make is it?
