My Mother's Day started with a slice of cake Napoleon, that I made, following my mother's recipe.
The day was promising a good weather for some outdoor activities. What kind? Well, have a piece of that cake, and get comfortable: we are going to Oklahoma Renaissance Festival.

Where am I?
Really? Do I need to dress up? Which one shell I choose?
 |
| Amm? May be not this time... |
 |
| That's better... |
 |
| That way! |
Transportation option:
 |
| That is one of the "high-tech" brooms, if you ask me... |
My head is spinning and I am hungry.
What do they serve in the Castle?
 |
| Turkey leg! |
 |
| A Turkey leg and a root beer "to go" XV century style... |
 |
| As good as it could be... |
See you,
Marina

ReplyDeleteThank you Joanna! I am not a baking person, but sometimes I do make this cake.

ReplyDeleteActually my love of cooking comes from both mother and grandmother...:) and dad too: he is a great cook, I just wish he would cook more...:) I went to the fair just to get out of town but ended up having a lot of fun! :)

DeleteThat Napoleon looks delicious! And the festival looks like so much fun, the turkey leg and root beer, awesome!
ReplyDeleteI would prefer a real beer with that turkey leg but I had to drive, and I have this strict rule: don't drink and drive! :)

Thank you CCU! It took me a few days to make that Napoleon! :)
DeleteHa ha....how cute knights!! It seems that you all had a good fun there. Marina is indeed very interesting... The "Turkey leg" picture at the end is such a WOWWWW!
ReplyDeleteThanks! yes,indeed I had a very good time.

ReplyDeleteI do love to go to different historical events, some of them really transform you to another era...
DeleteThe festival looks a good laugh. But that cake looks just marvellous - the layers look divine.
ReplyDeleteThis cake looks pretty pretty good!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThank you Kim!
DeleteI could start off the day with a huge slice of that Napoleon! What a fun day you had at the festival.
ReplyDeleteLol! Norma, you are amazing! personally, I can't start my day with a slice of the cake. I am not a big sweet eater, and even if I eat a small slice of the cake, I need something savory... :)
DeleteThis is my favourite festival! We go to it every year. I'm glad you went its loads of fun! I have the photos on my computer, maybe I'll post it sometime. That cake looks absolutely scrumptious. I've bookmarked it. I want to make it sometime. : )
ReplyDeleteThank you Vanessa! I did enjoy that festival.
DeleteThat cake looks ridiculous. I may be licking my screen...

ReplyDeleteThank you, this cake is a three days work..:) I guess it's worth it! :)
DeleteI love the flying brooms-)) I need one for sure-))
ReplyDeleteHaha! Where you are going to fly?! :)
DeleteI want to make that cake- like now. I want to get out of bed and make that cake! Love it!
ReplyDeleteThanks! I am not that motivated by desserts, I can get out of bed for a savory dish, but desserts I make just a few times per year (baked desserts) :)
DeleteLovely blog...and cake too!
