Just the right amount of red and bumpiness on that layer cake my wife is making for us to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Strawberry cake with butter creme frosting. Yummy!
What are you having? My sister will be going out to eat with her husband, if it don't snow too hard later on in the night.
Here in Dallas, it just rained a lot over night and the temperature is just in the 50's.
We will probably stay at the crib tonight. We have some movies to watch and will likely have sausage and Au Gratin Potatoes with pinto beans and hot rolls.
If you like Au Gratin you might like this recipe from Allrecipes dot com.
Thinly sliced potatoes and onion are layered in a creamy cheese sauce creating the perfect au gratin potato recipe.

This classic French potato gratin dish is world famous, and rightly so! I am quite happy to have this as a main meal, with just some crusty bread and a large mixed salad on the side. I have heard that this famous dish was created as a way of encouraging th

@lookatdesktop Thanks for sharing. Mine came from Pinterest, which is similar to the one at Recipes that Crock's version by a few recipes.

Moist, sweet and a bit tart and creamy, smooth and filling with a hint of strawberry.
