Mom told me on the phone today that you made her Mandarin Orange cake recipe. First time watching your channel, enjoyed seeing my Mother’s recipe get made. Happy Mother’s Day from Germany!

[@patriciadunfee1594]

Looks so easy! I realy like watching you . I baked the fruit cake that you liked so well. It was delightful. I will make this for our next family get together, by the way, our families are from Mt Sterling area. Pat , Middletown, OH

Tell your mom to use Zero Sugar cake mix, vanilla and cool whip. Should help for this with diabetes

Wow, you popped up early I’m awake. I’m in the hospital recovering from knee surgery can’t sleep and was so happy to see there’s a new video! My guess is it was set to go for 2 PM but it got scheduled for 2 AM by mistake ha ha ha happy to see it early! Happy Mother’s Day, Melissa!

I've heard of the Sunshine Cake but not pig pickin cake. That's a new one on me. It's great to have you at the table with us.

Hi Tom and Melissa. Just can't get enough of your program. Happy Mothers Day Melissa.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

Thanks so much! I hope you are having a special day as well. It's nice having you at the table with us.

[@suepurviance3393]

I’ve made this cake for years as well. I got it from a sweet lady that I worked with. She always baked it on my birthday.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

What a nice present. You really know someone cares about you when they take the time and make the effort to prepare something homemade for you.

[@grammysal]

When you talked about your trusty old hand mixer I had to chuckle. I have a gold colored hand mixer that I received as a wedding gift and it still works wonderful. It is now 56 years old!

[@barbarakrall1184]

Happy Mother's Day Melissa and to all of us Mothers! Thank you for this traditional cake recipe. I did not have it and know I will like it! I am grateful to have found it.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

You are so welcome! Happy Mother's Day! Thank you so much for watching our channel.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

God, I’m praying right now for Yvonne. Today is a special day when we honor our mothers, but it’s also a painful day for people who have lost their mothers and are feeling a huge hole in their hearts. I pray that you will touch her with your strength and kindness and goodness and mercy so that she will feel your presence with her this very moment. I pray for her right now to experience sweet memories of the precious loved ones she has lost recently. Thank you so much, Lord, for being with her right now and for having her feel your presence all around her. Amen.

[@ljke]

I have made this cake so many times I have the recipe memorized, but we call it Sunshine cake. My grandma used to ask me to make it for her when she would go to potluck dinners at friend's houses because she loved it so much. I even let her take credit for making it. lol

[@comesitatmytable9044]

What a sweet story! I love it. You were a wonderful granddaughter to let her take credit for making it.

[@ljke]

@@comesitatmytable9044 Thank you! I miss her a lot.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

I know you do. Our grandmothers have a special place in our hearts that can't be filled by anyone else. I'm so grateful for pictures and memories. I think it's why I enjoy scrapbooking so much. I get to enjoy those sweet moments all over again when I'm creating a scrapbook page. Thank you for watching our channel.

Your recipe popped up at 12:01 a.m.! That's either dedication or you have big plans for Mother's Day. This cake sounds perfect for spring and summer. Happy Mother's Day, Melissa ❤

[@comesitatmytable9044]

Thank you so much! And it could also be that I just forgot to change the default setting from AM to PM! It could be that. 🤷‍♀️

​@@comesitatmytable9044 I love watching your channel!!! On my saved list... I put all of the recipe videos that I watch into a folder called Recipes, but your recipes have their own folder... COME SIT AT MY TABLE!! 😊. My dad died last year and right after he passed away I found your channel. I really wished that he could've enjoyed your channel like I do. He is from and was living in KY. He was a big Wildcat fan, as well as my mother is. I am taking care of her and every night I have to put her KY Wildcat blanket on her. So just hearing you talk about KY is so awesome and your recipes are a lot like the ones that my KY relatives make or made, so you two are such a blessing for me!! Thank you so much and may God continue to richly bless you both and your family too!! 💐💕 ❤❤❤

When I i was 75 I had both knees replaced at once. My Dr said he didn't recommend rhat very often, but they were both so bad. I did the therapy before surgery and after surgery. I got along great! It was very successful, and the secret is a good orthopedic Dr and do the exercises. I have no pain at all and it has been 5 yesrs.

[@suestephan3255]

Wow I had the double knee at 68 and did fine including 6 weeks of therapy. First three were tough but it got easier and glad I did that. Some doctors won’t do two at once. Also key is what you said a good Ortho Doc. Get recommendations!

[@beth4059]

I saw Paula Dean make this cake and she called it a Pig Pickin Cake. I’ve made it several times and it really is delicious.

[@janiceslifco146]

When a hand mixer still works well, no sense in replacing it. I've had mine since 1969 and I still use it as it still works just fine. I will make this cake as it sounds wonderful.

[@comesitatmytable9044]

We agree. Those older products were made to last and we love that! We hope you enjoy this cake like we do. Thank you so much for watching our channel.

This was my mom's signature cake but always baked as a three layer cake and plenty of icing between layers and top and sides. And included coconut in the icing and Mandarin Oranges decorating the top. Always a Hit with everyone and the one recipe she never messed up even as she aged. Thanks I enjoy your thorough ness and patience and encouragement when going through recipes. Thank you.

I am so glad that you specified the measurements of the packaged food. This is important in these days of downsizing. If you have an old recipe that does not say the size of the package, please rewrite it now for your future family.

Not having tried this cake yet, I can’t comment on its taste or tweaking any aspect of your recipe. But I will offer viewers a tip to remember, if they find they desire a bit more orange flavour. An easy enhancement is adding about 1-2 teaspoons of Orange Marmalade to the mix. Thanks for a simple and easy recipe

[@comesitatmytable9044]

What a delightful suggestion. Thanks so much for sharing it with us all. We have the nicest viewers, and they are great cooks!
