Cinderella and Glass Slippers and recipes for the Ball

Well, okay, maybe not too much on the glass slipper side, but I did want to share some fun Cinderella paintings, graphics and vintage pictures.
Let's get started! 

 

"I'm having a wicked shoe craving."

- Buffy, The Vampire Slayer

To serve at the ball:

Orange Kiss-Me Cake

1 orange

1 Cup seedless raisins

1/2 Cup walnuts

1 Yellow Cake boxed mix

2 Cups powdered sugar                    Preheat oven to 350'

> Grease two 9" round cake pans. Line with waxed paper on the bottom. Grease waxed paper.

> Squeeze juice from orange, reserving 1/4 Cup juice, orange rind and pulp.

>Using food chopper with fine blade, grind reserved orange rind and pulp, raisins, walnuts. Set aside.

> Prepare cake mix as directed on box label.

> Fold raisin/walnut mixture into cake batter. Pour batter into cake pans.

> Bake 30 - 35 minutes until cake tester comes out clean.

> Cool on racks 10 minutes; remove from pans onto racks and peel off the waxed paper. Cool.

> In small bowl, with fork, stir powdered sugar and reserved orange juice until smooth. Spread on top layers of cake, then stack layers.

"If you are not willing to risk the unusual,

you will have to settle for the ordinary."

- Jim Rohn

a fun coloring page with a puzzle for little ones:

"Love is not written on paper, for paper can be erased.

Nor is it etched on stone, for stone can be broken.

But it is inscribed on a heart

and there it shall remain forever."

Here's a recipe for my favorite appetizer:

Hot Olive Cheese Puffs

3 Tablespoons soft butter

1 Cup grated sharp cheese (I prefer CoJack)

1/2 Cup flour

1/2 tsp paprika

1/4 tsp salt (I usually don't add this)

2 1/2 dozen stuffed, medium green olives (helps if these have been patted dry)

> Blend butter and cheese. Mix in flour, paprika and salt (if desired).

> Shape into balls, about 1 teaspoon dough around each olive.

> Wrap in foil, freeze.

> When ready to serve, unwrap amount desired. Put on ungreased baking sheet.

> Bake at 400' for 10 - 15 minutes, or until golden brown.

> Serve warm. Makes about 30.

Keep these frozen and on hand for unexpected company.

About 1/3 of this recipe, when baked, never makes it to the guests.

I LOVE these cheese olive balls!

Well, here is a last vintage Cinderella picture for you, and finally a glass slipper!

"Some say you will be old enough

to start reading fairy tales again."

- C.S.Lewis
