Crazy Frosting
The reason I call this crazy frosting is that it has no icing sugar in it so it slightly defies the laws of frosting/icing! (If there are any…)
I Googled “frosting for ice cream cake” and someone had posted a link on a forum to this recipe that was on http://www.tastykitchen.com … on there it was called “The best frosting I’ve ever tasted”… and yep, it’s pretty good…

Strawberry Rhubarb Pie

My mother is a pie expert. I’ve probably told you this before, but she made pie a LOT … seemed like every day.. after all, Dad needed his breakfast pie.. not to mention lunch and dinner pie… but then he got the high cholesterol and all that pie eating came to an end. Good thing as I think my mother was getting awfully tired ….but I digress. Continue reading
