wow. I always wondered what that was. I like the way that site looks. Very pretty. Of course, I am a big fan of pretty teacups, so a site about tea is something I would like anyway! lol

Ma also made vanity cakes. "I'm told that the recipe below is from the "Little House Cookbook". Phaed Title: Vanity Cakes .. Yield: 1 servings 2 lb Lard 1 lg Egg 1 pn Salt 1/2 c Flour Powdered sugar Use large fryer to produce depth of 3", heat lard to 350. In bowl beat egg & salt for a full minute. Beat in 1/4 cup flour, a Tbls. at a time, until batter is too stiff for beating but too soft to roll out. Cover a dinner plate with flour. With a teaspoon, spoon batter onto plate in 6 separate portions. with knife turn each over to flour, then drop into hot fat. Aim for limp but compact dough mass that will not string out when it leaves the knife. Cook each cake for at least 3 1/2 minutes, during which time it may need help in turning. If it darkens too quickly, fat is too hot. Drain cakes on paper & dust with sugar." From: www.hungrybrowser.com/phaedrus/m112602.htm#3Finder of Lost Recipes.

That is a lovely site tearoselane. Book marked it for later. I love having tea parties with my granddaughters and this site will certainly come in handy. Thanks. And of course the Little House books and all the wealth of information therein. WOW.
