I saw that Semi-Homemade show, she made cakes out of store bought
angel food cakes and decorated them for 3 different holidays. The
one she made for Kwaanza (sp), she decorated with ... ACORNS.
Hello, I never heard of people eating acorns. They looked as if
they were prepared as chestnuts might be, and peeled, of course.

The way she presented it, it was like, just put some acorns on it!
as if we could just drive to the acorn store and pick some up. I
don't think so. Then she put apple pie filling in the middle of the
cake, that didn't exactly turn me on, either, but that's another
story.

I don't want anyone running around looking up a source of acorns for
me, but do you all find acorns to be a common ingredient that I have
been missing?
