AdamSmith Posted December 10, 2017 Posted December 10, 2017 This afternoon's order of business (this very rugged old-style 19th- or maybe even 18th-century recipe after being baked needs to age a couple weeks for the flavors to fully develop and come through)... English Pound Cake 3 sticks butter 2-1/2 cups sugar 6 beaten eggs 1 tsp grated orange rind 1 tsp grated lemon rind 1 tsp lemon juice 4 cups plain flour 1-1/2 tsp baking powder 10 ounces currants 1-1/2 tsp mace 1 tsp vanilla Batter will be very stiff. Pour/spoon batter into large tube pan greased with Crisco and lined with greased parchment paper. Bake at 325 degrees 1 hr 30 min (may take closer to 1 hr 45 min depending on your oven) until tester comes out clean. Let age 1-2 weeks for flavor of citrus rind/zest and mace to merge & come out. So to speak. Quote
Members OneFinger Posted December 11, 2017 Members Posted December 11, 2017 I'm flying out of San Diego (where I work) and going to my Utah home for Christmas with the family. Leaving Utah on the 28th for my other home in Portland. Then on New Years Eve I returning to San Diego for work. Not looking forward to the snow and cold in Utah. It was terrible last year and we had to snow blow twice on Christmas day just to get out of the driveway. The snow blow pile up was over 5 feet high. Quote
Members Popular Post tassojunior Posted December 11, 2017 Members Popular Post Posted December 11, 2017 This week in Ft Lauderdale with my newish blond Argentine boyfriend. Next three weeks in DC with my 1.5 year muscle boy power bottom boyfriend who was under the illusion he was a born-again heterosexual for a few months. Then early January chasing David and Dominik in Prague/Vienna/Zurich to get them to come visit. My guys are far-flung but winners and I love them. msclelovr, Tartegogo, boiworship and 2 others 5 Quote

BiBottomBoy Posted December 17, 2017 Author Posted December 17, 2017 Kjun - what's Vietnam like? Quote
Members kjun12 Posted December 18, 2017 Members Posted December 18, 2017 I enjoy Vietnam very much. Very nice people and the climate is much cooler in Hanoi and North of there. Today is actually cool here in Bangkok. 71 degrees today. A very rare thing. Wish you some fine Holidays. AdamSmith 1 Quote
BiBottomBoy Posted December 18, 2017 Author Posted December 18, 2017 71 degrees sounds amazing. Quote

Members flguy Posted December 22, 2017 Members Posted December 22, 2017 I've been in the hospital for almost 3 weeks and get discharged today. Christmas will have a different meaning for me this year and will be more than happy just to be home with a good friend. Tartegogo 1 Quote
BiBottomBoy Posted December 22, 2017 Author Posted December 22, 2017 Jesus. What happened to you? Quote
Members flguy Posted December 23, 2017 Members Posted December 23, 2017 Over the period of a weekend my lymph glands swelled up and I became extremely septic. Went to ER and surgery preformed the next day to clean out area. Then 3 weeks of heavy duty IV antibiotics and a wound vacuum. Home now with a portable Vac and three trips a week to wound care for dressing change. It was rough just to sit in a room for 3 weeks and I also didn't know how serious it was till I had been in for a week. Puts a whole different view on Home for the Holidays. Very very thankful here.

Members BigK Posted December 24, 2017 Members Posted December 24, 2017 Best wishes to everyone this Holiday Season. Hang in there flyguy! Glad to hear you're home. Quote
Members flguy Posted December 24, 2017 Members Posted December 24, 2017 Should be fine but it will just take time. MRSA is a very difficult infection to get rid of and has a habit of coming back, however we are watching things very closely. Just so thankful to be home and one of my best friends, my regular guy when I lived in NC, has come over to help and celebrate Christmas for a few days. Getting the hang of having tubes and IV lines hanging out of me and maneuvering around the house and doing normal chores. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. numerito and AdamSmith 2 Quote
