My roots are two-fold...
My dad hails from Michigan and my Mom hails from a teeny tiny town in Kentucky right smack dab in the middle of The Judd's hometown and George Clooney's hometown...And a right smart drive from Billy Ray Cyrus' hometown...or Hannah Montana for you younger folk.
Anyhoo..I said all that to say that I have some wonderfully fattening southern recipes to pass along to my children should they ever feel the need to eat. :-)
One of the rich...way too rich...way too good desserts is my
Aunt Alvia's Chess Cake

Topping

Please keep in mind that this blog is written for my children. When I've gone the way of the dodo bird they will have this to read. Hopefully it serves as our family scrapbook...because I'm not buying any more stinking wavy scissors and stickers! Just print this blog on photo paper and stick it in a photo album kids. Momma loves you!

4 WHAT'S YOUR TWO CENTS?:
Hey- we are in Michigan:) cool. As for this recipe. It sounds SO good...I can't have milk or wheat:( I'll have to live vicariously through your blog.
Dad's family is from the Port Huron area. I and my family live south of there now.
I think I saw your original post on one of the many homeschooling sights I am a member of... your tagline had your blog link, I think. Of course, I had to check out a fellow homeschooling mom's blog.

I founded the Macomb Co. Chistian Homeschoolers group.
The photo of this on your front page looked so good, I just had to click over for the recipe. yum!!!
In the St. Louis area, this is also known as Gooey Butter Coffee Cake. It's my FAVORITE...especially with LOTS of powdered sugar!
