Cake was what I thought would be a nice present for a friend's birthday last Saturday, and indeed it was a nice idea. I mixed flour, water, sugar, fruit and spice for a cake that would provide plenty of cheer. I baked it to perfection, considered adding icing, and let it cool. A Depression cake it was, from the skill of some past mother, and when I presented it to the birthday-boy all he could do was drool.
Actually that's a lie, but I think I've written something that rhymes there? Even if the meter is off. No matter. In other news, my brother has gone. YAY! and oh!:(. But I think all those curries he was feeding us were rather bad for one's system. Nevertheless I've begun to start using the word "nevertheless" cause I think its a fun substitute for "however", however "however" has its merits. Oh and guess what, it hailed the other day so that it looked like snow on the ground, in Sydney!, in Spring! WOW! and it was so cold yesterday, yet so warm today. Weather make up your mind. Now what does this have to do with cake, well not much but I guess you could say its rather like yesterday was when the cake was being cooled and today was like it being cooked, so that the weather is in fact crazy, not me, and it's working in reverse. Are we in El Niño, or La Niña?
