Italian Hamburger and Sausage Pie/Poke Cake/Garden/ Flea market!

Wow the first time I ate this cake I was in 4th grade (I’m 61 yo now) while I was staying with my grandparents, my grandpa made this cake it was called the $5.00 cake❤!!!! my grandparents were the custodians at the elementary school where I went for a time. He got the recipe from one of the teachers there and he made it from then on. Every holiday we thought we had to have this cake. The only difference is the recipe he had called for frozen unsweetened coconut that was shredded Very fine. The cake is so sweet that you could not tell the coconut wasn’t sweetened. You thawed the coconut out then you crumbled it all over the top of the cool whip. It was always best made the day before we ate it. I have made this cake for over 30 years for at least one of the holiday meals. My family would think something was very wrong if it wasn’t on the dessert table. What precious memories you brought back for me tonight my grandpa passed away several years ago. But he and my grandmother would come home after working all day at the school and help each other make supper at night. My grandpa was almost as good of a cook is what my grandmother was. Thank you for the precious memories. 😍

Everything looks delicious! I have a tip on the acidity from tomatoes….if you have a tomato based sauce, warm it on the stove and add 1/2 tsp of baking soda. It will bubble up and neutralize the acidity. My husband struggles with reflux and this has helped tremendously.

A virtual visit to miss loris and Mr browns house is always what the doctor ordered! That pie looks outrageously good! I will have to try that one. Happy weekend, everyone ❤

A clean and organized store like that is much more enjoyable to shop in then going somewhere that has a bunch of stuff here and there. Compliments to that owner.

The poke cakes and the Italian pie looks delicious. Your flowers and plant are pretty. Hope everyone has a bless weekend.

Italian pie has to be one of your best recipes and you have many great one! This is definitely on my to do list! Blessings!

Beautiful flower garden well done 🥰🥰 good place for iced tea and stories with friends and family 🥰🥰🥰

If u add 8 oz of sour cream to 16 oz cool whip or whipping cream n vanilla it makes the best coconut cake ever. Try it plz. It’s my family’s favorite cake.

Miss Lori, Duncan Hines has a Dolly Parton Coconut cake mix. It’s DELICIOUS! I’m going to make this cake using that cake mix. We LOVE, LOVE, LOVE coconut. That Italian hamburger sausage pie looks so good! My family would gobble this up! Your homestead is absolutely beautiful. I’ll be so glad when you both can retire and enjoy this wonderful place all the time. A lot of love and hard work has gone into this to make it this spectacular. I love that store with the vintage pieces. Thank you for taking us with you. This is a great video. God bless you and Mr. Brown.

My Mom had a red handle biscuit cutter just like the one she showed in the Antique shop, which brought back great memories of her biscuits. Thank you for showing us the shop.

Oh Miss Lori, you've got my wheels turning on that pie! Looks absolutely delicious and love that there is no pasta! I will definitely be making this! Thank you for all of your inspiration and wonderful tips!!!! Love your channel.....from west Michigan, where gardening is just underway!!!

Wonderful video and recipes Miss Lori. Love Italian anything and that poke cake, yum. Your garden is looking beautiful and the store at the end had so many nice things. I love browsing in stores like that. You can always find something.

I collected all my life lost it all in fire in 2000 , then collected just for my home antiques and glassware , pictures etc. have my glassware to my sister lately, and some furniture. I still have enough to fill my home. Just wanted to give her what she wanted before I'm gone. ❤

If there was a double thumbs up I would give it to today. Loved the recipes, garden, and flee market.

For the beef & sausage pie, thank you ma'am! That's a good one!
