Milly Grenot

My friend Milly, passed away in the early morning of January 29, 2010, after a short illness. She was a multi-talented artist who worked in oil, watercolor, pastels and made three dimensional collages. She also painted rocks just for fun. She was a pint size lady with a giant talent.

She was 91 when she left us..

Gingerbread Bundt Cake

A gingerbread cake baked in the cottage shaped bundt cake pan my brother and sister-in-law gave me for Christmas. It's big enough for 12 nice sized slices. I'm not the world's best cake decorator but the good part is, if the decoration is a disaster, one just eats the evidence.
