Well, it happened again. For some reason I thought that maybe, just maybe, baking the Southern Living magazine Christmas cake in July would not be as frantic as it is when trying to make it in December. And once again, I was wrong. But, when your nieces ask if you can have a Christmas in July cake baking party you don’t stop to think about the details, you just say it’s a plan! And, so now, I just make myself crazy twice a year. Because, let’s face it, with or without the SLCC, December is the craziest time of the year. And now, July is, too! The best way I thought to sum it up for you was in this little poem. So, here’s the latest scoop on our Second Annual Christmas in July Southern Living magazine cake baking party (sung roughly to the tune of “Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.”)
Oh the weather outside is frightful
But the air inside is so delightful
Now that it’s five below
Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow.
This heat doesn’t show signs of breaking
And I’ve got a cake that’s baking
So I’ve turned the air down real low
Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow.
I don’t know what I was thinking
I guess I must have been drinking
I should have just said “No”
Let it blow, let it blow, let it blow
It sounded like fun at the time
To celebrate Christmas in July
So when your nieces ask you to make
A Southern Living Christmas Cake…
Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.
Just because it’s summer
Doesn’t mean it will be “funner”
Your nerves will still be shot
And the kitchen too damn hot
Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.
The whole of summer break
Is not long enough to make this cake
Too soon they will go back to school
I hope by then that it will be cool.
We won’t have time to make the garnish
On all 27 steps we moved too slow
But it should still taste delish
Just say no. Just say no. Just say no.
I think I’ve learned my lesson
That we should have started sooner
And so next time I will remember
Unless we start it in December
I. will. Just. Say. “No”.
Oh, boy—I sure hope so, I hope so,
I hope so!
You can see all the fun on my website at www.itsreallysunny.com
Until next time…Cheers! ~ Sunny

I am happy to say that our 2nd Annual Xmas in July Southern Living Magazine Christmas Cake Baking Party was a success!
with Sam, Esar (my niece’s lovely French foreign exchange student-who was the stand-in for my daughter) and Lauren
Last year I got the bright idea (?!) of getting the girls in the family together with my daughter and my nieces, along with my mom, to bake a Southern Living Magazine Christmas Cake. Despite the heat, outside and in the kitchen inside, we had so much fun that a tradition was born. However, just like the recipe for the cake itself, it takes a lot more planning than you would think trying to coordinate everyone’s schedules and get everyone together at the same time.
