Aunite V's pineapple upside down cake was ,"Legendary." It was
so good you'd want to slap your mama! "I would give you the
recipe but then I'd have to kill ya," she'd always say.
Okay Tomas this one's for you my friend! he he he
Here is the quick fast way and it still taste good.
Fake it with store brought cake mix. Get the one with the pudding in it.
You want it to be nice an moist.
You will need 1 can of pineapple rings
1 1/2 c. of white sugar
1 tsp. of Real vanilla favoring
1 Can of carnation caned evaporated milk
1 stick of butter
1 cup of water
a couple of pinches of salt
A whole lot of prayer he he he.
Bake the cake according to the box instructions.
in a medium sauce pan
combine water, half of the juice from the pineapple rings and sugar to make a simple syrup.
You will know it's right when it becomes syrupy like.
be very careful cause this stuff it hot like that!!!!
add the whole stick of butter and a the vanilla favor.
stir until butter is melted then slowly add your
can of carnation evaporated milk stirring as you add it in.
Taste very carefully and add your salt. Salt to your taste. It may take a pinch or two.
Now, bring to a boil and stir again.
Remove from heat and set aside,
When cake is baked cool for 30 min.
Polk hole in cake with a tooth pick
drizzle the rest of the pineapple juice on the cake.
Now, don't soak it!!!! Just dampen it a bit or as you like
Take the pineapple rings and lay them on the cake either side
it's really up to you. Then take the warm caramel sauce you made and
lavishly pour over the cakes or cake.

Divalicious!!!
This is for all the ladies!!! I believe that there is a Diva inside each of us.
She might be pulling up to the school picking up the kids.
She maybe working in a nursing home feeding some hungry Senior.
Or maybe she is a crafter working from home putting it all together to sell in her Etsy store.
Diva's are not defined by what they do, but how they carry themselves.
It's the smile you are given and the head nob when walking through the supermarket.
It's the way she compliments other women when they are dressed to kill.
It's the way she takes something and makes it out of nothing. It's her ability to
laugh at herself. Diva's know who they are because they have taken time to know
themselves and are comfortable with it. They don't have to be anything more than
themselves! Ladies I celebrate each of you today! Go ahead and do your thang!!!!
he he he!!!

Read and Rise
I was asked to do this piece for Scholastic's Read and Rise Magazine.
This was a the cover for the parent guide. In this guide was information about
what books your child should be reading and what was good for what age group
and other very important information to help parents get their kids reading.
Read and Rise was a publication that was given out to innercity kids who
didn't get lots of books to take home. The magazine was a beautiful
one with lots of stories and fabulous illustrations. I loved that fact that
it was given away for free to families. Sadly Scholastic cut this magazine this year.
No more Read and Rise. I hope that one day they will bring it back. It's so sad that
a great program like this had to be cut.
