I invited each one of me to the tea party and they picked their seats and then the fifth me took the picture. If I had told each me where to sit, it might have been better. Cowboy Me should have been sitting where Fedora Me is sitting. *sigh* They don't like to be told what to do!<br /><br />Maybe you can make this cake along with the butter cookies that you will make for me?</i> :-D<br /><br /><b>BM</b><i>, Dumb Me was taking the picture. I love being with Me the most!</i> ;-D<br /><br /><b>TC</b><i>, aw c'mon! Give it a shot! Find references to the real MTP!</i><br /><br /><b>Anita</b><i>, you shine the light on the madness; I'm just following your lead! Hiding in the cup?! She's the dormouse, of course! (I gave away all of Medha's stuffed toys and this was the littlest anything we have left.) There's more! ;-D</i><br /><br /><b>Pelicano</b><i>,so...I WIN! <br /><br />Why does every cake I make reminds you of a pound cake?!</i><br /><br /><b>Et</b><i>, cut-paste?! Ouch. That sounds painful. I'm completely intact. All four of me!</i><br /><br /><b>Nupur</b><i>, what you came bearing was far, far more delicious! There is no comparison! The cornflakes chivda was gone in less than 24 hours. <br /><br />D brought 3 boxes on his last trip. I am considering freezing the third box just because it will slow the transfer to my hips! Pel had sent me a recipe. I need to tweak that. But first I must make good chewy candied ginger and I believe he sent me a recipe for that, too! I see a project in my near future!</i>Indian Food Rockshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13397829480472038159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5156654.post-30730251605601844542012-10-03T18:59:42.379-06:002012-10-03T18:59:42.379-06:00Shoot- I wish I knew about the triple ginger cooki...Shoot- I wish I knew about the triple ginger cookies a few weeks ago.

...<i>What?!
