Let Them Eat Cake
I am finally getting around to posting the photo above. We had some friends over to watch the SuperBowl game on Sunday night and I have been promising to bake something so long that most had decided I had forgotten how.
I will have to admit, I almost have. The Pecan Prailine Cheesecake above, didn’t come out as pretty as I had wanted, but the flavor was not bad. In Texas, we would have had a huge spread for Super Bowl Sunday, but whether anyone believes it or not, I eat a lot less now.
Instead we had some Pizza from Popeye’s Pizza (I still think this is the best Pizza in Chiriquí), a small bowl of chips during the game and topped it off with cheesecake.
Great game, good friends to enjoy it with and full tummies. It just doesn’t get any better than this.

Hi Tom. I removed the calories.
Hi Lilia. I ate my share.
You didn´t save me a piece????
Shame on me.
Hello Don Ray;
The cake looks great, but too many calories. You are right about Popey’s Pizza, I have eaten there 3 times and not been disappointed. Thanks for the tip, next will be the Mexican restaraunt in Bugaba. Thanks for sharing your dining experiances, it saves us that do not dine out often a lot of guess work.

Hi Glen. Glad you enjoyed Popeye’s. If you go again, tell Pino I said hola.
The cheesecake looks tasty and we actually do believe that it was your cooking but then we got to this statement,
“but whether anyone believes it or not, I eat a lot less now.”
Nena was laughing and told me she has gained 2 pounds just looking at your dining photos! haha
All I could think about was how good that cheesecake would be chased by a cup of Duran!

Hi J&N. I am kind of an engineer cook. I have to put all of the ingredients in individual containers and mix them at the time specified by the recipe. If the recipe is good, then the food has a chance.
It is the cleanup I hate. I never eat much of the stuff I cook since I usually stick with breads, cakes, and the sweet stuff.For coffee I have been buying 1820 in the Fronteria.
Donde puedo comprar ese pay…En popeyes pizza?
No. Yo hago eso.
Otra dulces yo hago.
