A Souper Cake

well,its been quite the week. my son was cyber bullied and thank god the school took care of it. the kid is suspended and he will be going 2 juvi jail if he even says boo 2 anyone. this same kid pulled a knife on my son this past summer and the dickhead cop said"oh ur boy is lying" well id like 2 show that dickheaded cop the threat from the boy. he admits 2 the incedent in the summer! anyways,even in a small town some losers move in,thank god they moved 2 the next town over,but our town shares jr high/high school. parents should spend more time with their kids. that kid and his 2 brothers were always roaming around town. i think their mom was even @ home. my son is 15 and i feel i've done a great job of raising him 2 respect others & not 2 fight. he is really smart and very funny. anyways i just had 2 get that out. i promised one of my followers i would make my mom's tomato soup cake (it's a spice cake). so i made it last night and im frosting it with cream cheese frosting today. i will add pics of the cake and the cake with the frosting on it.  but first,here's the recipe...

TOMATO SOUP CAKE
2 cups flour
1 tsp baking soda
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp cloves
1 tsp nutmeg
1/2 cup shortening
1 cup sugar
1 cup tomato soup
1 cup any kind of nuts(i used walnuts)
1 cup raisins

preheat oven @ 350f    cream shortening and sugar. add tomato soup blend well. in seperate bowl  mix dry ingredients,including raisins and nuts. add the soup mixture,mix until well blended, u might have 2 add a little water(1 tbsp @ a time) so it is not too thick. pour/plop the thick batter  into a  13x9 inch baking pan. bake for 50 - 60 minutes.

  1. Hey! First off, sorry that it has taken me so long to respond!! What can I say, blogging is time consuming ;) Second, I am so glad that the situation with your son was resolved. I could go on about all this cyber bullying and parenting, but I won't... Thirdly, the tomato soup cake sounds really interesting. I mean, is it really good?? It just sounds so different!!
