Mississippi – June 28, 2019

I love these artist-quality prints on watercolor paper created

by Mississippi artist Dominique Jordan. The beautiful artwork

was inspired by Medieval “Illuminated Manuscripts” found in

Bibles and other books of the time period, usually created by

monks who worked as scribes. The Uncial-style calligraphy is

done in ink, and the border artwork is watercolor. Three texts

are currently available: “Come Unto Me,” 8.5” x 11” for $45; “I

Was Glad,” 17” x 8” for $50; and “It is Well,” 11” x 14” for $50.

Jordan also takes commissions for custom originals. Contact

6 large eggs

3 cups cake flour

1 tablespoon pure vanilla

This is my sister-in-law Rita’s and my daughter Beth’s

favorite pound cake. There are several versions of this

cake, but this is the recipe that my mother always pre-

pared. It has a sweet, creamy, and smooth texture with

a perfect light crust. It is delicious with fresh berries

and sweetened whipped cream or lightly browned

with a little butter for breakfast with coffee or tea. I

hope you enjoy this cake as much as my family does.
