My neighbor invited me to a baking party she was hosting for some friends who all hail from Transylvania or as they call it “the old country”. The women are going to make their favorite family-recipe desserts. I am trying to get out of this. First, I know nothing about Transylvania except that it is the home of Dracula, and so my imagination is running wild about the type of desserts on the menu. I am envisioning Lily Munster’s spider cookies or blood-flavored scones. Secondly, I don’t bake well. In a kitchen with these very accomplished bakers, I think I might stand out like the proverbial square peg in a round hole or at the very least a lesbian at Chick-Fil-A.

Whoa, baking with folks from Transylvania? You’d better be baking Hot “Cross” Buns, just to be on the safe side! LOL.
Devil’s food cake Deb! But of course!
I think you should go and take some pictures of this momentous event and then post the pics on the site. C’mon, there’s gotta be some serious material in it!
Running out of material for your posts, Bill?
These photos could only hurt the site Bill, not help it. Trust me!!!
Well, to us the “old country” is Italy. Tiramisu, anyone?
I’m still not baking it no matter what the language!
