Smells like HOME!!i think i have very few smells that trigger memories or feelings.. Lucky Charms breakfast cereal totally makes me think of my Nanny (great Grandma Lane) we never had sugared cereal when we were younger, and Nanny would always just ask us what we wanted when we spent the night and lucky charms was totally it (not the store brand the REAL stuff).. and this Cowboy Coffee Cake..

I don't think Mom made it super often but when she did it was a special day... and the smell feels like home.. it's columbus day holiday from school today and we woke up to a cold rainy day so i made it for the kids this morning.. KayLea became VERY impatient and said she'd eat it soupy she didn't care she just wanted coffee cake "NOW!" all the kids get excited when they smell it (KayLea was very confused at why it smells done when it isn't yet).. i guess i don't make it too too often either!!.. i thought about posting the recipe but if you want it just google "cowboy coffee cake recipe" thats how i found it.. it's also in the Big betty crocker cook book (or at least an edition a while back and in a current edition listed as Buttermilk Breakfast cake or something like that).. the one i got for a wedding presant didn't have it in it so i found it on google (isn't google great.. how did we ever survive with out it??)
anyway this is my attempt at a foodie blog...
i was going to post some pic's of the boy's camping adventure but Ben still has the little digital camera in his car.. so when he gets home today but the boys said "he only took pic's of the fire".. so we'll see...
ta ta for now!
