This cake is spectacularly yummy! It is fruity, sweet, tart and just mmm moreish! :) The crust is very airy and spongy with great flavour and the crumbs are sooo great, very flakey and crisp. Everybody loved this and I will surely make it again and again and again.<br/>For the fruit I used rhubarb, banana and apple, which was a yummy combination and worked out well. Due to my bananas being very ripe, I reduced the sugar in the topping to 1/2 cup. That was plenty for us. I also added about 1/2 tbs of vanilla extract to the topping mix.<br/>To make this a bit nuttier I used half whole spelt flour.<br/>THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this amazing recipe with us, foodtvfan, I cant believe noone ever made this since 2009! <br/>Made and reviewed for PRMR Tag Game May 2011.

<p>My favorite thing to do is to spend time with family and friends, especially my two grandsons. Cooking, collecting recipe books and tried and true recipes from family and friends, and all the wonderful cooks here at food.com, is what I enjoy too.</p>
<p>My favorite sayings are: Yesterday is history, Tomorrow is a mystery, and Today is a gift; that is why it is called the 'present'. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile /> and Remember yesterday, dream about tomorrow, but live for today. <img title=Smile src=/tiny_mce/plugins/emotions/img/smiley-smile.gif border=0 alt=Smile /> </p>
<p>My favorite poem is: <br /><span>Common Things <br /></span>The things I prize of greatest worth, <br />Are just the common things of earth; <br />the rain, the sun, the grass, the trees; <br />The flowers, the birds, the glorious breeze; <br />Clouds that pass, and stars that shine, <br />Mountains, valleys, all are mine; <br />Rivers broad, and open sea <br />Are riches none can take from me. <br />Our God is here on every hand, <br />Upon the sea, upon the land! <br />And day by day my thanks I give <br />That with these common things I live. <br />....Praying Hands</p>
<p>My pet peeve is people who spit gum on the sidewalk even if there is a trash bin a few feet away!! I have stepped in 'fresh' gum a couple of times!! </p>
