At the Cabin November 2018

Arnie Cake

1 cup of sugar
1 large egg
2 tablespoons shortening
3 cups of chopped apples
1 cup all purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt

Cream the sugar, egg and shortening together add the dry ingredients and mix well if the mix appears to be too dry you can add a little milk to lighten it up. Add the apples and mix well. Turn into a buttered 8X8 inch baking pan. Bake at 350 degrees F. Until a toothpick inserted in the cake comes out dry, around 30 to 40 minutes.

When the world around is cold gray and full of pain, you watch Dale Calder for comfort and hope. Cheers, Mr Calder. God bless.

Those little rose hips are a gift from God to the birds on a cold snowy, blustery day. Such as this day. Such a blessing. And that cake looks so good.

Angel is just the sweetest. I wish I could hug her.

I lost contact with all of my grandparents in my youth due to one intrafamilial conflict or another, now a man and I haven't had contact with any of them for over a decade. Listening to your memories reminds me of my grandad, and seems to fill in the years of stories I've missed out on. Thankyou

Isn’t it wonderful to have a connection to the past? I treasure my memories of family story’s and of course the wonderful recipes that have been passed down through the years. Your tale was wonderful Dale. I always enjoy your sweet cabin.

You should talk more of your history, reminds me of my Grandfather. Thank you for that...

I had to put my rescue dog down a few days ago. I had taken her in from my son when they moved years ago. I was just going to keep her a few months, but it turned into years, because I was too attached. She stayed with me and protected me, and was the best dog. She was happy to be where I was and whatever I was doing, much like your Angel. She had a tumor, cutting off her air. Didn’t really know anything was wrong until the day before we went to vet. My heart has broken because I didn’t know anything was wrong. I thought she had slowed down because she was getting older. She just seemed happy and contented. A blessing I am sure. Her name was “Little Bit” because she was a little bit of many breeds. You love on Angel for me, and I miss my dog! Apple cake looks wonderful!!! Thank you for doing these films, they seem to soothe me.

[dazio]

Dale, what a lovely nostalgic video. It's such a pleasure to watch you in the have such a warm, welcoming way about you that 50 minutes seemed like no time at all. Great stuff.

[laraoneal]

Angel looks like the greatest companion. So lovable and calm.

[maryellen]

It was refreshing to hear you say "dinner is served such as it is." That was a phrase my mother used. Always enjoy your cabin visits.

Great another cabin video. You have got to appreciate the previous generations. They were a lot tougher than I am. Have a great day. Stay warm. Best wishes Bob.

Thank you, Dale. You are a wonderful Canadian Icon. Cheers to you and yours.

Love your videos, Mr Calder. So comforting!

[connie]

Your cozy cabin videos make winter a little more bearable. I'm adding this to the list of Dale Calder recipes I will be making. Every time I see you sample one of your home-baked treats with a cup of tea, I feel compelled to duplicate the experience in my home (alas, no cabin for me).
I wish you were my neighbor!

[TimLeeLetsGo]

Dale! I'm gonna make some Beaver Tails, get my Tim Horton's Mug of tea, sit back, and enjoy your video. Thank you so much for sharing.... I can't wait to watch :-)

Had to stop what I was doing to fix myself a steeping hot cup of tea, finish some kitchen clean up so I could relax and watch a cabin in the snow video! Made for a very enjoyable time! Thank you Mr. Calder for sharing, loved every minute of it.

[mev-k]

Love, love, love this video. A little bit of everything. Nice and long. Excellent setting. Please do more videos like this Dale. Thank you so much for sharing and keeping your fans wonderfully entertained.

I love your videos and when you cook, bake I feel like I'm there with you!!
