OK-time for bed (us working people, dontcha know) - but a nice spot o'tawny port & a little hurricane cake - I'll be fine! G'night y'all!

How come that's called Hurricane Cake? Any idea? Doesn't seem like something you could make if the power was out, or featuring much in "tropical" ingredients ...

Good question-all??

Now, really, g'night!

Sorry, Let me get you a late Port and Cake.
DONE!

I just have had a funk for the last few days. Life interrupted.

Well, then, barkeep - let me get YOU a hurry-cane! Anything serious?

What do you have for stupid family members?

Oh, no, not that!! You'll need something stronger! Have a shot of whiskey with the hurry-cane!

Karen, in my search I found that cake was originally called Earthquake Cake, but I can't find a reason for either name! I don't think I'd be making it in either situation!

RICHARD, could I have a DOUBLE hurricane, please? I'm beginning to gather together the things I want to take with me. The big move should happen about next monday or tuesday.

Sure you can! Glad you are in good spirits about your move and hope you aren't out of touch for very long!

Done!
