Look what our friend and blog follower Tookie baked and brought up the the house. Her delicious almond cake. Wonderful with coffee, tea or a little scoop of vanilla ice cream. Perfect timing with houseguests ready to share. I knew how good it would taste as I’ve been fortunate to receive her almond cake previous Christmases.
Recently my friend Vincie sent a NY Times article about the comfort of taking a Signature Dish everytime when going to a party. Her family and friends are always counting on her making Black Bean Salsa and also her signature Broccoli Casserole for holiday meals. When I then sent the article on to my friend Joanne, she was preparing her signature dish of deviled eggs to take to a party.
Are you known for a certain dish that you share?

What a thoughtful and delicious gift.
Looks delicious
The almond flavor was so great. Thanks for your visit today.
You’re welcome Ruth
Tookie’s cake is beautiful! I’m sure it was a perfect ending to your own delicious meal.
It was so wonderful to have for guests.
Save me a sliver😉
I will!
That cake looks so good. I have a few signature dishes, one is a middle eastern rice dish I often bring to a potluck, another is cornmeal pineapple muffins, and yet another is an Australian Chocolate Apple cake, gluten free, which is always a hit.
They all sound good. Thanks for sharing your special dishes
What a beautiful cake …. and such a good friend to bring it around just when you needed it! JB
