1. ***The Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities|http://www.spnea.org*** called to offer me a job today. I will soon be working at the Harrison Gray Otis House museum in Boston. Things are moving in the right direction.
2. Aunt Christine’s Strawberry Cake recipe. ***Amy|http://waltondammerunprwdot.org/g/*** asked for the recipe, and here it is…
qqq|Mix {1 White Cake Mix, 3 Tbs. flour, 1 package Strawberry Jello}
Add {3/4 cup oil, 1/2 cup water, 4 beaten eggs}
Stir in 3/4 cup strawberries (I used a 10 oz bag of frozen strawberries due to the season) Reserve the rest of the strawberries.
Bake at 375 degrees for 30-35 minutes.
ICING- Combine remaining strawberries with 2 cups of confectionary sugar and 1/4 cup melted butter. (I used a hand mixer) (my icing was chunky and strange looking, but was absolutely delicious, don’t fret!)|qqq
Congrats Rebecca! 🙂
Yeah! Congrats, Becky. Will you be giving tours at the house? If so, let us know when and me and the boys will head to Cambridge!

Thank goodness someone finally realized how fantastic you are! I was starting to get discouraged about the blindness of the New England museum community! 🙂
Huzzah, and congratulations! (I almost wrote “congraduations”. It is that ridiculous time of year again.) Thanks for posting the recipe. I just bought some strawberries today, so I will have to try it out tomorrow or Tuesday. Mmmmm… Strawberry Cake… 🙂
Hooray! They couldn’t have picked a better person to help Preserve their Antiquities! 🙂
