food, books, and irony

[tempestsarekind]

I made a cake! Apparently my reaction to cool weather after really hot weather is to make up reasons to take advantage of the stove and/or oven while it's cool enough to do so. Which makes sense when it's roasting a bunch of vegetables for lunch, or making a pot of polenta to eat throughout the week, but...cake? I never bake things, but I wanted to

I find that if it is something I have to analyse and deconstruct I can, but if it is something I vaguely want to analyse and deconstruct my brain just goes "lol, no" at me.

Yes! Possibly if I'd had some specific goal in mind I might have had more success, but it was far too easy to forget about my vague plan to see how the book was constructed.

Wish I could be there to help you eat that cake!

It would be nice to have the help! Though a friend of mine pointed out that one can freeze cake, so I might give that a try with half of it. (And if it works, then I'll have cake some day in the future when I don't feel like baking!)
