  1. Made this cake this afternoon, its very sweet and has a crusty crumb (must be because of all the sugar in recipe) . I cut the cake into two levels, and warmed the topping. Spread each level lightly with topping and put fresh berries combined with whipped cream on each portion. Then the outside I just garnished the top with fresh sliced berries and used warm strawberry jelly to glaze berries. Knowingly that it had to be eaten as soon as possible making it this way, I invited a few neighbours in and we all had tea and a lovely dessert. Each guest went home with another porion for their nite snack. It was a nice afternoon I must say.

Ashton will be 8 in January, he's the smartest kid I know! Wrylie will be 6 in February and he's got more passion and caring in his little pinkie than most adults I know!!! And my very personal pride and joy Hennessey. She was born on the 27th of September 2007 and she's my little dollbaby. I love being at home with my children..love paying for ALL the stuff my 2nd grader brings home...soccer fees, and basketball fees, and book orders...I love cartin' my kindergartner around, and then coming home and cuddlin' with my little girl, and shopping for her favorite thing...shoes. My husband and I are as tight as 2 people can be, and I hate it when he leaves for work and can't wait until the clock strikes 4:30 because I know that means he's on his way home. Life is good. I couldn't ask for more.</p>
