Zana called me this morning wanting this recipe. She will be in her lovely kitchen all day long, sweating over the stove, with flour and sugar flying through the air like pixie dust. Christmas music will be playing in the back ground, while her 4 girls will be decorating gingerbread houses and saying sweet nothings such as..."Mother, you are so bootiful with flour on your face!" Baby Thomas will be in his swing, perfectly content with a full belly of extra sweet milk (mom needs to find her energy somewhere)! And to top it off, the maid will be cleaning the kitchen during Zana's mid-day nap! We all know cooking and baking can really wipe you out!That was my fun little day dream of Zana's life. You can call her if you want the REAL story! But I've gotta admit, it worked, I'm ready to get off my buns and get busy in the kitchen-Thanks Zana!
