WOW! This was outstanding!!!! made for PAC Fall O7, I was trying to get it made before the cut-off deadline. I had a very heavy birthday week, and didn't have time to 'practice' it, so ended up making for the Sunday birthday party, 40 guest 'guinea-pigs'! I still can't tell you how it tastes, because it was polished off before I got to try it! I am handing the recipe out to several of the guests, who raved about it, so I think we can be sure it was a great success! It was very straightforward and easy to make, in fact my daughter did most of the preparation, and it came out of the oven golden-bubbly brown and smelling divine! Thanks Meredith, you brought me a lot of compliments, and now I can't wait to make it again so that I can actually have some myself :-)

I am a stay at home (or in the car:)) mom to two cute kids-ages 7 & 4-and one husband! He's pretty cute too....We live in Fullerton,California, which is also where I grew up. I love, love, love to cook, drink wine with friends, shop, travel, read magazines and collect cookbooks. I have zillions of them and love to sit on the couch with a good cookbook! I belong to a guild of Children's Hospital of Orange County(CHOC) and we recently just finished our own cookbook to raise funds for the hospital. I also enjoy shopping and selling on ebay-so many fun things to find out there! Thanks Liza at recipezaar (my college roomate) for leading me here.
