"Honey Cakes" for church's vacation bible school. We are doing Biblical-time rendition (yes - we'll be in sandals/togas) and food is to be authentic to the times.

Alabama49 - Sure, but I have to find it. It'll probably be over the weekend. On Fri/Sat we do farmers markets and I usually don't get back here for a couple days.

SunnyDawn - would you share your recipe?

Wow, that zucchini breakfast bread looks great. I made plain ol' zucchini bread yesterday to take to a zen monastery today for a 24 hour chant for peace. Something I've never done before. Hope they like the bread

Boy that is a good looking pie - no wonder it only lasted a few minutes. We have never been able to get rhubarb to grow in our neck of the woods - too hot I think

Sandee

Sandee, I froze lots of rhubarb this year. I could send you some when the weather gets cooler. Too hot to send now ;o)

Jen

That would be great - would love to try it - my husband thinks he doesn't like it but may be I change that. We'll talk later when its cooler still over 100 degrees here.

Sure! 'll try to get to that this weekend. I'd love to see your family recipe too. Hopefully they are different and I can try two different kinds of pineapple cookies!

Here we go. This recipe originally came from a Betty Crocker cookbook Mom got in the early 60's.

Pineapple Cookies

1 cup soft shortening
1 1/2 cups sugar
1 egg
1 can (9 ounces) crushed pineapple with juice
3 1/2 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1 tsp soda
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)

Mix shortening, sugar and egg well. Stir in pineapple. Blend flour, soda, salt and nutmeg; stir in. Mix in nuts. Chill one hour. Drop rounded teaspoonfuls 2 inches apart onto a lightly grreased baking sheet. Bake 8 to 10 minutes at 400 degrees or until no imprint remains when touched lightly. Yield: 5 dozen.


We usually ice some of them with vanilla frosting, and leave some plain.
