I have had many bloopers and like Andrea says more now that I m older then before. but the one my hubby will not let me forget. was when we first married 43 yrs ago and I tried Fried chicken.

I spent the whole day making homemade tomato sauce for the spaghetti. I was so proud. When he walks in and lifts the pot lid he gets a funny look on his face, by the time he asks what it is I know something was wrong. My spaghetti was great but where he came from theirs was more of a fettucini not tomato Michelle Prince Morganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16156615709810736856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1347718916639511061.post-51792347687576873702013-06-15T02:19:17.193-07:002013-06-15T02:19:17.193-07:00Would love to read this book - thanks for the give...Would love to read this book - thanks for the giveaway opportunity!<br /><br />Believe it or not - I think I made the orange slice cake years ago for a family Christmas gathering (instead of fruit cake). Can't remember how it turned out - so - like you, I probably wasn't impressed with it -although my father loves orange slices!<br /><br />bonnieroof60@yahoo.com bontonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02852536941656729576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1347718916639511061.post-5418447695301155102013-06-14T18:05:10.546-07:002013-06-14T18:05:10.546-07:00Fun story!

And I got the answer in a very unexpected way--by reading the morning paper. The article is covered in detail at the back of the book. <br />So glad this awful cake disaster has finally served some use.
