REVIEW: German Chocolate Cake & Cinnamon Finger

Driving around Point Loma super late and seeing only fast foods open, imagine my thrill when I spotted a coffeehouse with the lights on! I’m sooooo not a coffee drinker, but surmised there was a good chance they’d have some kind of dessert. Being the dessertie that I am and having gawked at all the new real estate development in the area, I was ready and oh so willing for anything remotely sweet, even a candy bar would do!

The furnishings of this coffeehouse fit its name “Living Room” to a T. Artwork on the walls, a couch and a few round tables & chairs in the dining area. Yup, perfect name for this coffeehouse.

This German Chocolate Cake had beaucoup (oh wait, that’s French!) coconut. It could have easily been renamed “Coconut Chocolate Cake”. It was stereotypically grocery-store quality–not that grocery store desserts are poor quality–but I expect a coffeehouse affiliated with a local bakery to be above par. As far as the Cinnamon Finger, blame it on Sam’s Club. Their platter has ruined me for all other baklavas.

I'm trying to get back into posting more here. I guess you could say I've been distracted. Since late February, I've been reading everything I can about COVID-19 (from reputable news sites like CBS, ABC, NBC, CNN, and tweets from medical professionals). This virus is a monster. From what was initially a virus that was detrimental to the older population is now affecting children and young adults as well. It is no longer a respiratory illness, but one whose symptoms can vary and be just as deadly. The scary part is there is no standard treament or vaccine yet so the best thing hubs and I can do is be prepared. Early on (late Feb), we bought extra cleaning supplies, hand sanitizer, and toilet paper (LOL). In March, I bought everything I needed to make fabric masks (i.e. sewing machine & gadgets, cotton fabrics, non-woven interfacing for the middle layer, thread, rotary cutter, etc). The following month, I started sewing. The pattern I used called for 7" elastic loop for each mask but that wasn't gonna work universally 'cause hubby required a larger size and I needed smaller. So for everyone else who wanted a mask, I cut the elastic (shown here) so they can adjust the fit to their liking. #fabricmask #3layermask #noseandmouthcovering #pandemictimes #covid19 #thenewnormal #shelterinplace2020 #willwearmaskpubliclyuntiligetvaccinated #germany #igersgermany #germany_insta #ig_germany #rhinelandpfalz #rhinelandpalatinate #rheinlandpfalz
