What a busy week! I started a new job and by the design on Ina's cake, you may guess that it is teaching 5th Grade. In the midst of all the craziness, my lovely mother offered to make the cake since this is only the third day of school. What on earth would we do without our mothers, even when we are old enough to fend for ourselves?! The only issue she had in the process was that the pan she had on hand was smaller than the one Ina called for in the recipe. You can find the recipe at the Food Network website, or on page 216 in Family Style. I apologize for not going into further detail or providing more links, but this dial-up business is for the birds!
