I learned an easy way to check a cake when you have no toothpicks to check for doneness,, use a piece of spaghetti. It works just as well. LOL Dry spaghetti that is.


Since posting this. UPMC, Pittsburgh, Oct 2011 until Jan. I averaged about 2 to 3 surgeries a week there. w Can't have jaw made as bone is deteroriating steaily that is left in jaw. Mersa is to blame. Feeding tube . Had trach for 4mos. Got it out April.
