Wacky cake fills this niche for me. As a kid we had it at least once a week for dessert, and I still love making it.

Isn't this just like the sandwich loafs that were all the rage in the 50s? There was one at my 50s-themed bridal shower and it was quite tasty. You have to use a very dense bread so taht it doesn't get soggy.

My favorites in Chicago are Continental Sales and Salvage, near Midway, and the Jehovah Jireh Food Warehouse in Little Village, on 21st and Rockwell. Sounds like a food pantry. Looks like a food pantry since it's attached to a church. But it's not. It's AMAZING (I bought 5 gallons of organic red wine vinegar for 2 bucks once)

Just to clarify ... that a product is USDA Certified Organic is not a guarantee that it's "healthy". Organic ice cream is still ice cream. Ditto organic pop. They may contain fewer scary ingredients, taste better and be better for the environment (in some cases), but they're still junk food.

Real trees were nonexistant when I was growing up in South America, and the fake trees available were expensive and tiny. Another family had brought an artificial tree over from the States and used it for probably about 10 years. When they went back to the U.S., they passed it on to us. That was 1986. We used it every year until my family came back to the States in 99. At which time we passed it on to someone else. I wouldn't be surprised if its up in someone's living room right this moment. How's that for green :)
