make
my first. An orange bundt cake.

Sounds great! An orange cake sounds delicious. What is the history of
bundt cakes? I seem to remember a time when they didn't exist (up
through the late 60s?), and then all of a sudden they became popular
and
stayed that way. One of the things I like about bundts is when they
are
baked until they have a sort of crust to them, which is just out of
this
world wonderful.

I had to run up to Indianapolis on business today, but tomorrow I plan
on
picking up a springform pan and trying one of the great cheesecake
recipes
that people have suggested, and on Sunday I'm going to have a go at the
German chocolate cake that Wayne suggested.
