My husband, John, tried to convince me he didn't really like sweets.... Really, Mr. Little Debbie's addict?
John also loves my home baking. He likes Makes It's Own Crust peach cake/pie... a great old "dump cake" recipe.
Crazy Crust Peach Cobbler
He also likes baked custard. I have written several posts about making custard before.... Check the links.

And cheese cake.

And Carrot cake. OK, I admit I use a mix for carrot cake.

But his favorite is old fashioned, home made fruit cake. I'm not talking that hard, dry, nasty stuff you can buy at this time of year. I'm talking wonderful, fruity goodness. Here's the recipe I use. Try it yourself. It's great!

I used to bake cookies, nut log, cheese danish. But we don't travel to Georgia anymore, so I don't do all that baking for the family gift exchange. John, Joshua and I can't eat all those sweets. So today, fruit cake is the mission.
Living life in rural Arkansas with my husband Johnnie and stepson Joshua. Johnnie and I both have Parkinson's disease. This makes life a challenge, but we're living a full life with each other as best we can. We really enjoy living in the woods. We spend our days making things, eating good food, watching a movie or two on TV. We enjoy learning new things and keeping our life focused on the positive.
