More Baskets and Baking


I am loving this Longaberger medium entertaining basket! With the liner you can do so many thing with it.  We served cookies in it one day and cake in it the next!  


I have baked in my woven tradition baking dish several times since it came.  The cover made it nice for delivering it to the fire station and keeping the cake fresh.  Longaberger baking dishes are great for baking and can be placed in the microwave, dishwasher, and even in the fridge with all those yummy left overs.  I can tell this is going to be a classic favorite at our home.


I wanted to share my yummy cake secret!  To make the best homemade cake ever is so easy!  All you need is your favorite boxed cake, and a box of your favorite instant pudding.  Spruce up your box cake recipe by replacing the water called for in the directions with milk instead.  Continue with all the other ingredients called for.  Throw your box of pudding in and follow the directions on the box and you will have a cake better than from the bakery!  Be sure not to over bake your cake.  Try different combinations of cake boxes and pudding boxes and come up with your own special creation!  
Enjoy!

Morning Waffles

 This is another one of my inspirations....my baby girl.  Ok, she is almost 6 but she is my baby!  I can not call her my main inspiration because she does not like everything I bake....kids!  One of her favorites is waffles-YUM!  This morning she was up early saying in her sweet voice.. Mommy, I am hungry!  I suggested waffles and got a beautiful little girl smile.  How could I not jump right out of bed and whip up some waffles.  She is my official helper in the kitchen and did most of the work this morning, even mixing with the hand mixer, that was a big thrill for her!  



The final product served up on a Longaberger woven tradition dinner plate in paprika and a little whip cream.  You can't have waffles without some coffee.  It was a great morning!
Don't forget to freeze your leftover waffles for easy morning breakfasts.  Just pop in the toaster and you have a warm homemade breakfast any time!
