Growing up my Sisters would watch Steel Magnolias, over and over. So you can imagine that I’ve managed to see this, modern, Southern classic once or twice. About midway through the film, there is this great scene where the “mean old” Ouiser is serving the, Armadillo shaped, red velvet groom’s cake, and she chops the tail off and serves it to Tom Skerritt. Seeing this scene makes me laugh every time, which brings us to this month’s Yankee Challenge. This month you’ll be baking Southern Red Velvet Cake.
