Ruthie's tomato soup cake
Cakes

This is from my grandmother Ruthie, who I never met but whose name I carry. She was a thrifty Irish Catholic single mother of 7, who always managed to put a homemade dinner on the table while twin boys bullied small girls, and so on. She was a saint. <br /> <br />She also made this one-bowl cake with tomato soup, which is pretty brilliant, and adorably retro. Don't be thrown off, though -- it really just tastes like a moist spice cake, and it has an intriguing pink color. Serve it when you're feeling Irish, or Warhol-esque.
