Granny's gone and done it again

[Granny Hatchet]

Before I left for work yesterday afternoon I posted a recipe I found on FB to my DD's timeline for an almond amaretto pound cake. I was being a smart donkey and asked her to make it.
After a full shift of Murphy's Law combined with the effects from the full moon, I come home to a clean kitchen and...wait for it...a fresh almond amaretto pound cake with an amaretto glaze.
She usually makes box cakes, and this is her first from scratch cake. She knocked it out of the ball park.
I'm a proud momma.

How awesome is that !!

I almost cried happy tears.

She thought she used too much amaretto in the glaze, but I'm not sure that is possible. Lol

Is she still at home ? I cant get anyone to even make a box cake here except for maybe GS

She's 16, and finally experimenting in the kitchen.

Both of my kids are still home. DS turns 18 this month and DD just turned 16 at the first of the year.
