Thanks Deni. I have a wonderful lady to thank for giving me her recipe. It`s great when a good tasting recipe reminds us of someone special.I think of her eveytime I make it.
thanks for stopping by.
thanks for stopping by.
Thanks bvicki. It sound delicious. I have already printed it off so i won`t lose it.
Wish i had the sweet potatoes so i could make it right now.
I love sweet potatoes. Sweet potatoes, apple salad, lots of dressing, mashed potatoes with either butter or chicken gravy, and don`t forget the fingerrolls. Now thats all it takes to make me happy at Thanksgiving. Gee, not too smart to be tempting myself this way.

Vicki, sorry for the b in front of your name. Just my crocked fingers hitting both the v and b keys at once.
Thanks again. I do appreciate your leaving me your recipe. real nice of you. Have a nice day.

Sue, oleo is just another name for Margarine. It used to be called oleo margarine and just got shortened to oleo. In other words it is a substitution for real butter. Hope this helps. I used the country crock Shredd`s spread which is 53 percent vegetable oil. I have to watch my cholesteral and there is no cholesterol in this one. I never thought to ask my cousin what type of margarine she used, but I think most any kind should be ok.
As for using stewed fresh pineapple, if the consistency is about the same I would think it would work, but I must say that I haven`t tried it to be sure. 20 ounces should be about 2 1/2 cups full. If you try the fresh stewed pineapple, let me know how it turned out. This cake batter doesn`t resemble most batters as it looks mushier. Not sure exactly how to describe the batter, it just looks a bit different.
I just noticed I have the word sugar spelled wrong in the recipe. I have 2 cups of sugatr and it should have been 2 cups sugar. I am sorry about that. Hope everyone knew what I meant.
Well, I better get off the comp soon as i am leaving today around 1pm and will be gone for the week-end.' Have a nice week-end.
