Washington is abuzz with excitement as the hours count down to President-elect Barack Obama's inauguration. Well wishers hoping to witness history traveled in and out of Washington today planning their routes for Tuesday (The thousands of port-a-potties set up near the National Mall are already being put to good use).
This is a delicious, festive, fun punch to serve at any gathering, party, or special event. My Mom Beverley has served this punch for over 30 years now! It's often requested! And watch out, it disappears fast! You can also add a variety of themed items to this punch, float plastic Christmas poinsettias, rubber ducks for a baby shower, having a wedding? Add ice rings that have been frozen with water or juice, orange, lime and lemon slices or edible flowers! The possibilities are endless!
This is one of the best cakes I have ever eaten. If you like lemon, you will love this cake and get rave reviews when severing it. I promise.
This is a recipe that my Aunt Bernice Hutchison always brought to holiday family gatherings. It's an old- fashioned treat, and it's fun to see the look on people's faces when you tell them it's made from a potato!
The first time my daddy made them for us, and was the best christmas i had as a child!
Family and friends would always request that I make my Holiday Ambrosia, my fudge, and Dump Cake recipes at christmas time.
This recipe everyone wants and sure to like because it is simple, quick ,and inezpensive. Mst of all delicious and the ham and green onion bring out the red and green so it looks festive. I would take it to our Sunday School party and work, and it was always a big hit.

Dads have gotten a bad rep in our culture labeling them as lazy, uninterested in parenting couch potatoes. That's just not the case in our family. My husband is a wonderful step-father to my kids. This blog is in honor of him.
We're still just days away from the inauguration, and DC is already a changed place.
