The reason that I said that the Matiz cake is not for Kelly (previous blog) is that it is chuck full of Walnuts and Kelly has a real problem with her mouth swelling when she eats pistachios or especially walnuts.
One Christmas party I came into a real deal. A member of our church was selling walnuts from her grove for 50 cents a pound.. already shelled in perfect shape. I got a a bunch of these for the Christmas party. Along with the handy dandy Blue Diamond walnut recipe guide, I made mountains of three different kinds. One of them was chocolate, another, caramel and the third white chocolate. I put them on a tray and we headed to the party in San Francisco. Kelly drew the walnuts. No one traded her away. She ended up with walnuts that she could not use. I saw the publication as a warning that this cake was full of walnuts and dates. The walnut part was the worrisome part. Sorry Kelly for not clarifying the caveat that this cake would not be for you.

Oh yes, I really have to avoid walnuts, that's for sure! From Thanksgiving to Christmas people sneak walnuts into _everything_ and I have to be vigilant!
