I made that cake a second time for my mother while she was recovering from surgery and it turned out awful. Inedible. I don't know what I did between the first time and the second, but man, the first one was so yummy and the second one we threw away after we tasted it. Oh well :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-77654718137208482522008-10-16T09:31:00.000-07:002008-10-16T09:31:00.000-07:00I recently discovered Ina.

My "usual" cooking style is tasty with a healthy twist. <BR/>Although I am known to throw caution into the wind at times and make something completely fattening and sinful. <BR/><BR/>As a matter of fact, I just made the most delicious and comforting Neopolitan Macaroni and Cheese. There was no real way to healthy it up without sacrificing the dish, so I went for it. It was fabulous!Anniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11259640913845569431noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-43830924625547966172007-11-06T18:09:00.000-08:002007-11-06T18:09:00.000-08:00I've never tried her recipes, but I do like to wat...I've never tried her recipes, but I do like to watch her show.

I have watched her show a few times, though. It's always disappointing when you have high hopes for a recipe and it just comes out so-so. I do love the look of the icing running down the sides, though!Deborahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11741861711308777389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310300.post-34150035942850239452007-11-06T04:59:00.000-08:002007-11-06T04:59:00.000-08:00I love Ina but I've not sure how I feel about her ...I love Ina but I've not sure how I feel about her recipes.
