Notes
Yesterday when I was dropping my 3-year-old off at preschool, the teacher and another parent (grandparent, actually) were having a conversation. Since the conversation was about cake, I couldn’t help but listen. I memorized what they said, and ran home to make it. Seriously. The man (I don’t even know his name, honestly) said that his wife got the recipe from the Phillies, that it originated as Charlie Manuel’s wife’s recipe. I haven’t googled to verify that.
