My Mother Myself

My mother, Jo, and I have this really bad habit of tearing recipes and cooking tips from magazines and neatly organizing them in notebooks. We have actually made some of those recipes. That would probably account for about 1%. All the others we would really, really like to make. Yesterday she gave me one of her notebooks. To say the least - I was thrilled. As I ran thru the notebook I decided I would post some of them here for the next year (or so . . . ) and a few of mine. Some of them are oldies from family. Some will have no reference. Let's see how this goes . . . . .

Coconut Cake with White Frosting

Happy Birthday Jo 

If you ask anyone in our family 'what's your favorite cake?' we all say 'coconut!'.
Mamo was the coconut cake queen. we all got a coconut cake on our birthday and even a wedding cake (see March). somehow, I do not have her recipe. But, Jo got a coconut cake and white frosting recipe from her good friend Luzy that comes the closest to how Mamo made hers . . . . .





 *** NOTE TO JO: remember this ?
