Drizzling icing and zest on top of the loaves.

Limoncello CakeI made these delicious lemon flavored cake loaves as a gift for Christmas. They would be a treat any time of the year and are made from a basic box of cake mix with some additions.

Questions

A porcelain doll in a green dress.

Identifying A Porcelain Doll?I got this doll in 2015 or 2014. I do not quite remember. But it was without a box or anything. Always finding her pretty but never knowing what she was from. A collection? Something a person made etc. I found a picture of someone selling a doll that looked similar and my search lead me to Franklin Mint/ Franklin Heirloom Dolls.

 

An unusual stuffed toy.

Identifying A Stuffed Toy?We recently came into possession of this incredible 1998 vintage plush from Manhattan Toy Company! Fantastic we thought, we wish to know his name. Any thoughts? He's incredibly hard to find!

What Goes On Sale When?Years ago, my mom had an article she cut out from somewhere showing what items go on sale during certain months. This is in the U.S. For example, in January, bedding usually goes on sale. In February, kitchen items go on sale. In March, garden items go on sale. Anyone know about this?

Semi Hard Cooked Fudge?I used 1 stick salted butter, 2 tablespoons cocoa, 2 cups sugar and a can of evaporated milk. I accidentally poured 12 oz evaporated milk in instead of 5 oz as called for. It was cooked long enough according to candy thermometer but not setting up properly. Can I fix it?

 

Shelf Life of Avocado Hair MaskI make hair mask with fresh avocado, olive oil, castor oil, rosemary oil, coconut oil, vitamin E oil, and other essential oils. I keep them frozen and the one currently using refrigerated. It defrosts well but how long will they last without doing so? Leaving out refrigerator. I ordered avocado, lecithin, and grapeseed powders to help preserve future avocado masks.

 

A vintage cedar chest.

Value of Lane Chest?I am wondering what the worth of this Lane Chest? I inherited it from my in-laws, and have never used it. It still has the original receipt and warranty card. It was bought in December of 1968. Still smells like cedar!

Sofa Joints Not Locking?When I pull out my sofa bed frame, the end leg joint is not locking and the bed sags. Nothing appears to be broken. How can I fix this?

Name Of Movie Where Farmer Is Given a Metal Head?There is an old sci fi or horror movie where a farmer who has been in an accident was given a new metal skull to replace his damaged one. I remember it from my childhood, so it could be anywhere from the late 60's (I'm a '74 vintage model!) all the way into the early 80's.

How to Harden Chocolate Fudge?I had made fudge using chocolate and condensed milk and refrigerated it overnight but the next day, after keeping it out for more than three hours when I was cutting it, it was gooey and was not hard at all. How to harden fudge? And if I have to melt it again, how do I check the temperature without a candy thermometer?
