New Goodie - Lemon Jello Cake








Well, things have been wild and crazy, just like normal! Amy had her baby, Adam, blessed the first Sunday in June. He is such a doll! Amy looked like Barbie. She had on a cute dress that looked like one that Barbie would wear, and she has lost so much weight since she had Adam, that she looks terrific!


I made Lemon Jello Cake to take to for after the blessing. . . so I am including the recipe:


Lemon Jello Cake
1 Box of yellow Cake Mix
2 Lemons
1 3oz. Box of Dry Lemon Jello
2 cups Powdered Sugar

Pour the dry Lemon Jello into the dry cake mix, then mix as directed on box. Pour mixture in a 9x13 pan that has been greased and floured. Bake as directed. When the cake comes out of the oven, poke holes with a meat fork at 1 inch intervals. Have ready a mixture of two cups of powdered sugar and the juice of two lemons (about 6 tablespoons of lemon juice). Immediately pour over cake. Use a rubber spatula to direct it to seep into poked holes. When cake has cooled, cover it. It is delicious!


Matthew (Larry's son) and his wife, Ruth, also had their wedding reception/barbecue. They had
lots of good food and there were lots of relatives and friends there. It was a lot of fun. It was nice to be able to see Matt and Ruth for a while as well. They seem to be doing really well.

We didn't have to bring anything for their reception, except a gift of money. That was nice. We didn't have to even help set up or clean up which was even nicer! They picked a wonderful day to have it. The weather was warm and there was a breeze blowing. It was wonderful!
