No, not you dear friends and/or family that by chance might read this?
Nope referring to this girl.. yup pointing at me. Question for ya'll what do I do for a living? If you maybe answered bake cakes, give yourself a nice pat on the back cause I do. This means that obviously when people have birthdays I step up and usually offer/are expected to make a cake. Well since the parental ones are coming to Massachusetts this weekend and since my big sis's birthday is next weekend I decided I would make her cake this week. No worries this story does have a twist just setting the scene. Well I have this chocolate buttermilk cake that is pretty much to die for so I figure I'll make that today. Well somewhere between me making it and taking it out of the oven something when terribly wrong. Like hot mess wrong. As in super flat, super dense nastiness. Well not complete nastiness I tasted it, eh it was okay, or at least edible but not exactly "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" ish if you know what I mean. So this would just not do, googled a recipe for Baker's Unsweetened Chocolate Cakes and found a super one bowl recipe... well it's going in the oven so hopefully for Katie's sake it comes out. If not totally going to go and by a mix cake. Oh yea and I made some d-e-lightful Almond Poundcake. Yup googled that shit too. Seriously off topic, what did we do before google? Other off topic anyone remember Encarta? What ever happened to that? Hmmmm something to ponder while watching the cake bake.. Anyway back on topic, the recipe for poundcake called for Lemon Extract, well I didn't have any and instead had some Almond, probably left over from Christmas soooo I got it done. Wow that was a boring little side story and I apologize for that few seconds of your life you will not get back. Alrighty then.. here's to baking! Oh and not being a complete S.A.L
get it?
no?
Okay .... S.A.L = Suck at Life :)
