I baked my favorite lemon-ginger Bundt cake recipe for my birthday.  Instead of a Bundt pan, I baked it in a round pan.  I did an internet search for lemon curd frosting, and found this recipe.  I used lemon curd from a jar.  It was the perfect compliment to the cake!

Oklahoma Department of Environmental Quality issued a mandatory boil order for the area where I live. I'll be boiling water for dogs and humans through the weekend, as they expect to have the issue resolved by Sunday.
