My friend Suzi Hall posted this on FB and I thought some of you who don't have to watch your waistline might like it. It sounds very easy to make and looks delicious. :)

Granny Cake 1 1/2 c sugar 2 c flour 1/2 tsp salt (omit if using self-rising flour) 1 tsp baking soda (omit if using self-rising flour) 2 eggs 1 lg (20 oz.) can crushed pineapple in its own juice (including juice) 1 c brown sugar 1 c chopped pecans 1 c evaporated milk 1/2 c sugar 1 stick margarine 1 tsp vanilla Mix the sugar, flour, salt, soda, eggs and pineapple together and pour into a 9 x 13 pan. Sprinkle the top with one cup brown sugar and one cup chopped pecans. Bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes. Cook the milk, sugar, margarine and vanilla until mixture comes to a rolling boil. AFTER THE CAKE HAS BAKED AND RIGHT OUT OF THE OVEN, pour the cooked milk mixture over the entire cake. This is so moist and delicious!!! Should be kept refrigerated.

And interesting idea my FB friend Shelly posted this morning ...................
I was roaming around and I came across a recipe for homemade air freshener. This intrigued me! These gel air fresheners are the perfect.This project takes a total of five minutes to make, is highly economical, and each jar should last you about a month. This would also make great gifts! -Chera Into make these little beauties, you first need a heat-proof jars, food coloring colors of your choice, and essential oil. You can find inexpensive essential oils of various scents at craft stores and some grocery stores. I chose a raspberry scented oil...it smells delightful! Into each jar, drop a few drops (I repeat...a few...it doesn't take more than 2 or 3) of food coloring. Then, put in about 30 drops of essential oil, give or take. The more essential oil you put in, the stronger the smell. Now for the fun part. Gather up 4 envelopes of unflavored gelatin, a tablespoon of salt, and 2 cups of cold water. Why salt? Salt (or vodka) apparently help to keep the gel from molding. Interesting fact, isn't it?!? Get one cup of water boiling on the stove. When it begins to boil, whisk in the gelatin, stirring until it's all dissolved. Then, pour in the other cup of cold water and the salt, stirring until the salt is dissolved. Quickly pour the hot gelatin mixture in each of your jars, and then use a disposable stick or spoon to stir it into the oil and food coloring. Let these gel overnight, and then voila! Air freshener!
