We had disaster piled upon disaster last night in the kitchen. We were supposed to make dessert for T'Day dinner at my aunt's. So Rachel and I planned on:
- brownies
- tiny lemon pound cake bundt cakes
- chocolate buttermilk cake
What we ended up with at the end of a long hot evening:
- lovely brownies (thanks to Rachel)
- some blobby little things that, if you squint closely, look somewhat like little bundt cakes
- a semi-cooked (although a toothpick came out clean and the top was getting burny) chocolate cake that, when turned out onto a cooling rack actually ran out and left a puddle of half cooked cake batter on the stove-top
Here's a link to the cute little mini-bundt pan we were using. Notice that they do not actually show cakes made in this pan, only candy.
Okay, off to see if the dishwasher has stopped.

Last night I picked up Matt Ruff's Bad Monkeys. I'm almost done and I'm liking it a lot.

If it makes you feel better ... our oven temp is off by about 75 degrees (which explains why I have no had much luck baking in this house) and this year, despite the thermometer, I overdid the turkey and underdid the apple-pear-ginger pie ...I hope everything else worked out okay.
