How to Pick a Fall Mum On the anniversary of 911 the club gathered in one of Greenery's greenhouses for a presentation on mums by Tricia Puckett. The atmosphere was ethereal as members gazed over the mums outside and listened to the rain drops ricochet off the greenhouse roof. Our hostess presented pointers to insure that mums over-winter in Indiana, suggesting that the earlier planted the better the chance for success. Tricia also enlightened us on how to winter geraniums and impatiens. Although strictly wholesale in the past, Tricia has secured her retail license for the Greenery so the general public will be able to purchase plants much to the delight of garden club members.

Pineapple Cake Recipe |
1 1/2 Cup Sugar
2 Cup Flour
2 Beaten Eggs
1 1/2 Tsp Baking Soda
1/2 Tsp Salt
20 oz Can Crushed Pineapple (Do not drain)
Dump all of these is a bowl and mix with a spoon. Pour into a
greased baking pan and bake at 350 Degrees. For a 9"x13" bake for
about 35 minutes or until top is slightly browned. For a sheet cake
pan bake for about 20 minutes or until lightly browned on top.
Frosting:
1 stick butter, softened
1 pkg cream cheese, 8 oz, softened
1 tsp vanilla
1 lb powdered sugar
Use mixer to combine and frost over cake while it is warm. I like to
sprinkle nutmeg and cinnamon on top to make it look pretty in the
fall.
