Four Layer Sheet Cake – Recipe

I prepared this cake several times in the past but was not ready to share it until I figured out an easier way of handling this delicate dough.

How To Waste Money – Helpful Tips

The economy is always part of the news, during good times, or bad times, and financial planning is a tool for managing our money and planning our financial future.

We all have our own ways of saving money, but we all are equally guilty of wasting money, due to poor planning, or worse yet, lack of it.

I came across this very interesting article about several ways of wasting money, and decided to post it in full, rather than providing a link, since after a while these links are discontinued and the “late bloomers” would miss this very useful information.

If you feel you do not fit in this category of spenders, please pass the link to this post to your family and friends, for a real eye opener, and you might get a big THANK YOU!!!!

Potato Balls (Knedle) – Vegetarian Recipe

These are very quick to prepare, require few basic ingredients, and are very versatile for serving plain with butter and sauteed onions, with tomato sauce, or even filled with fruit and served as a sweet dish or dessert.
