Any Home Bakers Here?

YES. They want $100 to install Windows 10 and I am thinking about doing that.
and they want another $100 to install what I had on the computer. I am not too savy on this...but once they install Windows 10 ...all that was on my computer should be there?

Sounds like that should work.

I'm not sure about the files, but I would think they are hiding somewhere.

BTW, how are your grandparents doing now that they have been with you a while?

It’s hard to say. Some days are better than others.

Grandpas memory is deteriorating, and he had a low blood pressure issue a few days ago, we went to the doctor and they adjusted his meds.

Grandma now has kidney issues, and she is not that mobile without help.

Not to be morbid, but I don’t think either will make it to 2024.

It’s depressing seeing them deteriorate.

I do lots of things that I don't say anything about.

Yeah I know you're afraid we will all be pestering you for information.

Not really, you're to nice.

I am going to make the birthday cake for my dad's birthday party on Saturday. He wants his moms Spice Cake - he only gets it for his birthday as it is quite putzy. My turn to make it this year.

I read the recipe tonight to make sure I had all the ingredients. Thanks to my addiction to The Great British Bakeoff, I can identify it as a 2 layer spice cake with a pastry cream layer between and frosted with an Italian Meringue.

I have never made a pastry cream or an Italian Meringue. Wish me luck.

Question - can I make the cake a day before, or should I assemble it on Saturday morning? Will Italian meringue hold (be stable) for over 24 hours?

Anyone have experience with Italian Meringue Frosting?
My question is if I can make a cake today to share with family tomorrow? Will the meringue frosting hold shape for 24 hours?
