My mom makes a Watergate cake that I LOVE. It's a pistachio cake with "cover up" frosting (cool Whip + pistachio pudding). We used to have it for St. Patrick's day, and I'd request it on my birthday.
To NYCGirl-- The first decade of our marriage, I was amused and a little frustrated that my in-laws always turned up their noses at my salads. MIL explained that to their family a salad was either coleslaw or something made with macaroni or jello or Cool Whip. Hmmm, at my house jello and cool whip were dessert.
Sorry to veer off topic. Was just hoping you'd enjoy a laugh at my goofy in-laws.
Hehehehehe....salad is normally green and leafy for me sooo I'll just try Watergate salad in place of a piece of cake. On the subject of in-laws, mine were French and figured I was either a barbarian of some sort (I ate corn which they only fed to barnyard animals)or crazy. After waiting 11 years before divorcing their son I realised they were right: I WAS crazy but errrr maybe for different reasons than they imagined;)...
