Dear friends, About 5 years go, I posted the following Kentucky Derby post along with a few recipes. As I thought about a new tablescape to celebrate the Derby, I came up a little lazy, so I decided I would not create a new post, but would re-publish this one. Sigh!

Sheet cakes...who doesn't like an easy to prepare and delish cake? These cakes are usually easy to make and feed a lot of people. Some confuse them with a 9 x 13 cake ,which in my opinion is as different as a layer cake is to a cake baked in a 9 x 13 cake pan. Although a 9 x13 cake is usually the same cake batter, spreading the batter out in a larger sheet pan...allows it to stretch a bit further....if that is a consideration. Folks this Lemon Sour Cream Sheet Cake recipe has ... Read More about Lemon Sour Cream Sheet Cake
