It's a German cake called Dobas Torte. The recipe has been passed down from my Grandmother on my Mother's side. It's a multi layer cake usually 10-12 layers, sandwiched between thin layers of butter-cream icing. The outside is the same icing but w/ more chocolate/cocao in the mix to make it darker. Then pour melted sugar on top which hardens to a caramelized topping.

It has zero calories because it's a special holiday cake.

If you put sweets on top of the fridge overnight, all the calories will jump out cuz they're afraid of heights. True story!

... without which it would be as unnoticed and ignored as my attempts to say two words in succession in the hangout without being interrupted.

I say "BFS"! That NEVER occurred while we both were in da HO at da same time, along wid others!!

Actually, it was there that I convinced myself to re-evaluate my evaluation of your persona (as if dat would matter to ya). Nonetheless, you continue to justify your attitude due the next quote.

No, it's not something new that happens only there... I have a lifetime of experience being overrun in that manner but when I need to I can make myself heard. Speaking softly works well for me when I'm talking to myself, but with others it never has worked.

History can be a biatch... especially with witnesses!

BTW, do I 'feel' better? No, just a lil' disappointed.


not too very long after i joined ECF, i got called out for name-calling in a PM by ECF member "racehorse"

she was absolutely correct, and to this day, i regret the idiotic thing i said. and i admire her for many reasons.

it's an easy thing for many of us to fall into. perhaps i've become more immune/tolerant because i know for sure that i have definitely crossed the line.

i don't see that anyone here has crossed the line that i crossed, but, of course, ymmv

So help me Dennis, I sure wish ya could make da Odyssey!

In this case, I'll gladly sacrifice my scale capacity to 'sample' a bunch o' dat!!!

I hope my sisters home made hard fudge with black walnuts gets here soon.
And a from scratch fruitcake!
Heck with vape mail I want sweet mail!

I have a couple of tanks, some batteries and a Subox mini in the mail but am only excited about the sweets on the way!
How's Wifey doing?

So Iffy, will you address your comment where you said that you and everybody else on the Porch knows some family issue that I haven't dealt with? Or should I just write it off as you wanting to say something hurtful without stopping to see if it made any sense?

Frankly, the way I'm looking at it now, nothing I've said even approaches the ugliness of that comment on your part.
