Then there was Toad-in-the-Hole, and Bangers and Mash, and Bubble and Squeak…and on and on.<br/><br/>My paternal grandmother was from Ireland (half Irish and half English) and so I was familiar with some of those foods, but my husband felt clueless. I must tell you that he drew the line at ordering the spotted dick.

Of course, it probably comes more from being raised by a woman who didn't bake than having been born in Cuba. Kake… now just how did you get that name again?

Even better than my grandmum who's been baking for 70+ years. <br/><br/>Me? Cook? I'd rather do laundry. Picky family has chased the joy of trying new things right out of me. Now I let my Boy cook. He's still adventurous even if most of us are running in fear. <br/><br/>Is your oven temp off? Recently I found out mine is running much hotter. Brick brownies anyone? Oh, it popped the wire from your braces. On a brownie? ;)<br/><br/>Good luck with your historical, Kate. I'll be cheering you on while I try to do the para team. <br/><br/>Thanks for the words the other night. They helped as much as your cheery voice. <br/><br/>K. Kate,
