It was good. The cake is on the lighter side, I thought
it would be more dense. I love the crunch of the walnuts
and I'll have cream cheese frosting anytime.

I saw that recipe the other day and liked the looks of it. Cake just
doesn't seem right on Thanksgiving to this Yankee though. I guess
it's another Southern tradition that migrated North.

I wouldn't call it a tradition, we don't usually have cake
at Thanksgiving. It was just a whim, how about I bake a nice
cake. No Southerners involved.

I would consider lowering the amount of sugar in the frosting,
but I still really like this cake.

Sometimes a question is a way to make a point, not actually
asking or looking for an answer.

Oh hesh, nb! It was a rhetorical question. I was pointing out it's
just another silly attribution to something "Southern" that really
isn't. Emeril might like southern (more specifically Louisana) food but
he's not from the South.

We love ya', O, but you have a minutely annoying habit of always
asking what everything means. I'm half the problem fer always
replying to yer simple queries, like I'm the all-knowing smart guy
coming to the fair maiden's rescue. I mean, you do have a computer,
don't you? If you can ask, here, you should be able to ask google. I
can see maybe something totally obscure like an ol' geezer like myself
using an ancient colloquialism like "bitchin".

I don't know why I'm 'splaining all this. I would think most of it is
self-evident. I have no trouble finding "weedy clot" (OK, that one
did take some effort). But then, sometimes I'm jes a dick, so
disregard all I've said.

You didn't **** him off. He was replying to me. I'm not sure why he's

O is not the one who posed that rhetorical question, nb. I did.
Directed towards sf saying, "Cake just doesn't seem right on
Thanksgiving to this Yankee though. I guess it's another Southern
tradition that migrated North."

My point was Emeril is not *southern*. All you have to do is listen to
him talk to figure that out. Sure, he cooks a lot of southern foods.
He may well have gotten that recipe from someone in the South. That
doesn't make it a "Southern tradition" at Thanksgiving.

I attended a new year's eve party in Fall River, Ma. when it turned
from 1970 to 1971. That means that little 11 year old Emeril was
living there then...who would have known he would go on to be a great
chef? heheh

Also, I've got a best friend now that attended Brown University at the
same time. We met up 25 years later.

Dunno. Don't care. You were born in California, but you don't
consider yourself a Californian unless it supports whatever your

Bullshit. You seem to have something against the South which has come
through in your posts on more than one occasion. I merely pointed out
Emeril is a Yankee. Saying you guess (GUESS being the operative word)
it was a "Southern tradition that migrated North" shows you don't know.

No, I don't consider myself a Californian. I don't consider myself a
Southerner, either. I've just lived in the south longer than than
anywhere else in my adult life. So I do have more experience with some
things Southern. Cakes... right about now, Red Velvet. Christmas is
coming.

Thanksgiving and cakes? That isn't any Southern tradition I've ever run
into. Other than pie, the dessert would likely be banana pudding with
vanilla wafers.

The cake thing sounds like something Emeril thought up. It doesn't
really matter. I'm just glad Nancy's family enjoyed the cake. That's
what counts.

Saying "I guess" means the only time I've read about it was via
Southern food blogs. You and Gary are the ones who seem to take great
offense in having regional difference pointed out, so I consider both
of you quite thin skinned. The South is also known for sweet tea.
Gonna get mad about that too?

I barely live in the South but yeah...I do take offense at your
constant belittling of the south. You come across as some snooty
California liberal who thinks she is is "all that" and the rest of the
world lives in trailer parks.

Your rant a few months ago about just why the South is so bad had me
LMAO. You blamed every thing wrong in this country on da south. It was
funny and you embarrassed yourself and didn't even realize it.

As far as tea, I drink a few cups of hot green tea each week, just
plain. If I drink ice tea, I like sugar and lemon in it. But I rarely
drink that...it's been several years.

IMO, you need to accept that people are different and different from
you does not mean inferior.

Just my opinion of how you come across with your postings.
