    Your mom is so missed, but she lives on with your faithfulness to her channel. I loved her so much and I think I've seen every video of hers many times. She had such a sweet spirit!! Bucky, too. I loved his Bible studies. She would be so proud of you.....for many reasons!!❤

    I met your mom last Friday 2-25-2022 while I was searching for old fashioned chocolate fudge recipe. I just loved her. So,I starting watching all weekend. When I saw she passed, and her video on Mr. Bucky and Mr Peppy, and all the puppies I feel like I’ve known her my whole life. I was so sad. I’m 73 and now will watch you remake her recipes! So happy you kept her channel going! She was very special👍♥️

    The cake looks great! You saying your mom started her channel because she had talk you through recipes made me smile. My son would call me for recipes and I would give them to him-if I had one. Lots of his favs were dishes I just cooked without a recipe. I would try to talk him through using a little of this and a pinch of that and I could always tell that frustrated him. His mechanical engineering brain needed things to be precise! Many times after those phone this and that recipes he would cook the dish and email me a recipe-with precise measurements!-that he had devised while making the dish from my ‘ directions. ☺️. Maybe I should make a video of making his favorite dishes for him. No-I actually already made him a cookbook for his college graduation gift. I just wanted him to always have a taste of home-no matter how far he found himself from home.

    Greetings from South Carolina Steve! I'll bet that batter you mixed up is good! My mom used to tell me I shouldn't lick the batter bowl. That's the best part to me lol! I like sweetened condensed milk too. This cake looks delicious! Your mom would be proud. I still watch some of her past videos. Her Gotta Have Something Sweet Cake looks really good! The people you work with probably look forward to you bringing desserts that you cook. Little House on the Prairie is one of my favorite shows also. I watch it when I can catch it on tv even now. Sometimes I can find it on Hallmark channel. It was family oriented. Unlike the filth on tv nowadays. Stay safe as always friend. Thanks for sharing this. Looking forward to the next video.

    One day back when I was in my early 20's I was walking by my old man with my breakfast consisting of Coffee and a piece of leftover Apple Pie from the night before and I hear "Hey why are you eating pie for breakfast and not something healthy?"
    Now at this time in my life "breakfast" sometimes consisted of cold pizza and a coke so I thought this was an upgrade. But my response was "What's the difference if I had an Apple Danish?"
    My old man thinks about it and then asked me to go him some pie and coffee.
    So I see nothing wrong with cake for breakfast hey it has flour and eggs in it.

    Ummmmm, that looked amazing!!! I was thinking the glaze was similar sounding to a German chocolate cake glaze, which is (as I see your yummy creation) thicker than Miss Phyllis'. I think it looked like a winner and I hope your colleagues all enjoyed it. I'm interested in the pie crust pizzas Phyllis used to make. She used the refrigerator crust that you unrolled....did you ever have a Zah made like that? What's your take on them. I honestly haven't tried one....so anyone else reading this if you have, I'd also be interested in your opinions..
