one cake, many reasons
#1 Daughter made the yellow butter cake, and I contributed the warm rhubarb sauce. To gild the lily, (and for Hubby's taste-buds) we will also throw together a bowl of cream cheese frosting.
Happy Birthday, Grandma Janet! We will have to save you a piece, since we live 100 miles away fro you .
Happy Birthday, Grandma Jean! (2 days early)
Happy Anniversary, Bill & Nancy! (also 2 days early, but I'm only baking one cake this week)
We have other blessings to celebrate as well.
I think one cake can do the job. Pass the ice cream, please.
Nancy's Rhubarb Sauce
2 cups diced rhubarb (red is prettier)
2/3 cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon water
dash cinnamon
In a medium saucepan, combine & simmer all ingredients. Stew until thickened and rhubarb is soft, maybe 20 minutes. Stir often. Serve warm over any kind of cake. (As a rule, vanilla ice cream helps any dessert.) Refrigerate leftovers for spreading on your breakfast toast.

holy cow -- i suddenly want rhubarb SO badly.
i'm sure, if you give me a minute, i can find a reason why you should save a piece for me, too.
I have a-plenty rhubarb in the yard.

I so enjoyed dinner, cake, and ice cream with you folks last night. Thank you so much!
