Good Sunday morning!

Welcome to my Sunday morning kitchen-window view!

(click to enlarge gorgeous Doves, early sunlight and juicy Green scenery)

Before I get started baking I have a question for you...

How much do we love this Rolling pin?

It's a Big one! Just the Commercial-grade, cookie-making rolling pin I've been

looking for! And, get this... I found it last week at the Best kept secret for

cooking and baking Supplies in my area - Joyce Brothers! That amazing

rolling pin cost me just $8.50. So exciting... I almost bought eighty!

Glad I didn't buy This one since mine cost just a

pinch over $9.00, and I didn't have to pay shipping!

You already know how much I paid for this - Now,

go Here to see how much I almost paid for it! Paying so

much less will make my Bread baking so much happier!

Okay, enough of my Shopping secrets... Let's bake!

Today I'm going to try Pie Near Woman's Tres Leches cake

The fact that I get to separate eggs makes me Love this recipe already

Five beautiful Jumbo eggs separated

Yolks, meet Sugar!

Sloooop!

Mixing egg Yolks with sugar until pale yellow

Looks pale yellow to me! Now pouring it

over the flour, salt and Baking powder

Now for my Egg whites

I just read where the recipe says Stiff but not dry - Oh, dear!

Stiff...

and, they still appear Glossy-wet to me!

Whew! I hate touch-and-Go mixing scenarios!

Folded together Gently until combined

Leave it to Pioneer Woman to suggest a recipe requiring a serving piece I

do not own. I have round rimmed Platters and plenty of square and Oval rimmed

platters... But not one stinking Rectangular rimmed platter! You and I both know

that I'd be at Macy*s right now buying one; however, since it is Sunday

and my better-half is already out of bed, I won't be shopping today!

So I'm adding one rectangular rimmed Platter to my

list and for today, will just have to make this work!

It took a fair amount of Flash-dancing to get my

cake turned out into my square Rimmed platter. But I did it!

The sweet man cleaning my Pool just asked if his lunch was

ready yet... So excuse me while I prepare his lunch!

While I've been baking, he's been preparing the Outside so

that we can Lounge around in the pool this afternoon

So he's Earned a little lunch!

I'm off to play outside now... I'll be back to finish

our Tres Leches cake a bit later. See you then!
