Greetings to all our amazing listeners! We've been away for a while and would like to update you on recent events. Lisa underwent hip replacement surgery in May, followed by two dislocations and a subsequent hip revision surgery at the end of July. Meanwhile, Amy experienced a biking mishap in Germany, resulting in a hospital stay and leg surgery. Fortunately, she's now back in Santa Barbara. We're both recovering and will release a new episode for you soon. We sincerely appreciate your patience and understanding. You are truly the best!

Hip teplacement surgery #2 has been conquered. Hopefully, discharging from the hospital today and looking forward to sleeping in my own bed!

Here is my interpretation of the lake on the Wheeler Estate as described in "The Secret of the Unseen Treasure." This is based on the map that is used in "The Black Jacket Mystery." Most of the books don't follow this map, but I posted it because it shows the lake off Glen Road rather than behind Manor House.

#21 of Lisa's Trixie Belden Food Project: The only recipe I made from "Black Jacket Mystery" was the sugar-and-cinnamon-covered doughnuts with milk! I had to add a few frosted with sprinkles because they're my favorite!

#19 of Lisa's Trixie Belden Food Project: Mysterious Code's Belden Family Dinner Party. The Beldon's host a dinner party for the BWG's. On the menu: Waldorf Salad, Hamburgers, scalloped potatoes, baked beans, homemade ketchup, homemade corn relish, homemade beet pickles, various vegetables and pumpkin pie. Whew! That's a was a lot to make for one dinner, but I managed to pull it off! (Pumpkin pie not pictured. It was already included in the Belden Thanksgiving dinner)!

#18 of Lisa's Trixie Belden Food Project: I've moved on to the "Mysterious Code!" I used Moms' Hamburger Recipe (hamburgers with crumpled bread soaked in milk) to cover the Valentine's party and a classic meal at Whimpy's Diner! I wasn't a fan of the burger (a bit soggy), but the fries and chocolate malt were amazing!

#17 of Lisa's Trixie Belden's Food Project

I'm finishing the "Mystery in Arizona" with three items:

(1) Blueberry pancakes with bacon eaten both at home and in Arizona,
(2) Di's "rice dish" which I interpreted as red rice. I added some black beans, frijoles and rolled it all up into a burrito just like Mart's "Mexican Sandwich"
(3) Pan de Los Mu***os. This is an orange flavored bread shaped with bones on top. I highly recommend making it if you love the taste of oranges. Tedious to make, but worth it!

On to the "Mysterious Code!"

#16 of Lisa's Trixie Belden Food Project: Mexican Feast. In The Mystery in Arizona, there was a lot of cooking and eating going on! I put some things together to make this "feast." It included Mart's "Mexican Sandwich" and what I presumed was a mole sauce of some sort. Also, guacamole was mentioned, so I threw that in as well! And the tortilla chips are homemade!
