Glazed Grapefruit Yogurt Cake
There was a knock on the door Saturday afternoon. A man was standing there with a half a case of grapefruit and a half a case of oranges. He said our mutual friend Shannon, who lives in New York, bought them from his daughter's nursery school fundraiser and she thought I would be the perfect person to have them. He was told I was a food blogger. Yes I am and now what am I going to do with all this fruit?! Thanks Shannon for the amazing box of citrus. They are actually perfect. This is what I did to use some of it up...

Hershey’s Chocolate Pound Cake
Hershey’s Chocolate Pound Cake is so moist and delicious, perfect to serve with tea. I was discussing family Christmas traditions with my friend Pam. She said her mother makes this Hershey's Chocolate Pound Cake and that they eat it on Christmas morning. Of course, I made it immediately. This made one bundt cake and 4 mini loaves. Next time, I will line the loaf pans with parchment paper. This cake is so moist and delicious, perfect to serve with tea. Thanks Pam!

Shortcake
Shortcake with Strawberries and whipped cream is a wonderful easy dessert. This is my great grandmother Stanley’s shortcake recipe. I love the old fashioned simplicity of the recipe. It’s quick and easy to make. I use a fluted French tart pan, which makes the shortcake thin. It is very dense. Top with berries and whipped cream. Even I can’t mess this recipe up!
