I am going to another wine tasting dinner tomorrow, and this time I signed up to make the dessert. I said I'd bring German apple cake, and then this afternoon I got all nostalgic for German plum cake, so I made one of those too. It will be interesting to lug these to the East Bay on BART tomorrow night at rush hour, along with an overnight bag and a bottle of wine.
Did I mention that a couple of months ago we were tasting Portuguese reds, and I ended up volunteering to cook a dish called
açorda de camarão for 10 people? In someone else's kitchen, and not having cooked said dish in well over a decade? Luckily it didn't suck.
There is no real point to this post other than maybe to make y'all jealous and/or hungry.

Mission accomplished. Off to find a recipe for plum cake...

I used this one:

I haven't tasted it yet, so I can't vouch for it...but it sure looks and smells good, and came together in a snap. Also, I'd recommend using 1/4 cup sugar for the topping instead of 1/2 c.
Jealous. Hungry... :(
