Sally's Baking Addiction also has a good recipe for German Chocolate Cake: https://sallysbakingaddiction.com/german-chocolate-cake/ I skipped the buttercream frosting.

A friend brought me Chicken & Rice from Chicken Nature, located at 1791 Marlowe Road in Santa Rosa. She knows I love Nong Khao Man Gai's in Portland and this was a good substitute. The chicken was very tender but the sauce from Nong Khao still is the best. The rice was very flavorful because it had been boiled in chicken stock. 2020 07 23 ..read more

I'm having problems uploading to blogger, so I'm in search of a new host. Route 66 is insterrupted until I can get a new site. In the meantime, I'm uploading what I had previously written. We visited Armstrong Woods in mid August, about a week before the wildfire went through. The Armstrong Woods State Natural Reserve is located in Guerneville. There is a free parking lot before you enter the gates. The parking lot opens at 8 am but when we arrived at 7:45 am, there were already a few cars there. If you want shade in the morning, park closest to the trailhead. If you get there late and st ..read more
