Ok so I've decided today to share with you a awesome recipe.
WACKY CAKE!
Ingredients
1. 1 and 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2. 3/4 cup sugar
3. 1/4 cup natural cocoa powder
4. 3/4 teaspoon baking soda
5. 1/2 teaspoon table salt
6. 5 tablespoons vegetable oil
7. 1 tablespoon distilled white vinegar
8. 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
9. 1 cup water
Directions
1. Adjust oven rack to middle position and heat oven to 350 degrees. Coat 8-inch-square baking pan with nonstick cooking spray.
2. Whisk flour, sugar, cocoa, baking soda, and salt together in 8-inch-pan. Make 1 large and 2 small craters ( or holes ) in the dry ingredients in the pan. Add oil to large crater and vinegar to a small crater and vanilla to the last small crater. Pour water into pan, and mix until just a few streaks of flour remain. IMMEDIATELY put pan into oven. If you are confused about the the crater thing don't be :) It's just three holes, 1 large hole with oil in it and 2 small holes, one with the distilled white vinegar in it, and the other with the vanilla in it. The Holes are made in the whisked dry ingredients that you put into the 8-inch pan. This keeps these 3 ingredients from mixing to early. If they do the chemical reaction they make when together could mess up the constancy of the cake if done to early. You mix it only after adding the water, and right before putting it into the oven. Don't worry that's the next step. The craters ( or holes can be made with the back of a spoon). Thought i should explain that, Cris had to explain it to me, my home EC. teacher that taught me this recipe :)
3. Bake until toothpick inserted in center of cake comes out with a few moist crumbs attached, about 30 minuets. Cool in pan. ( If tightly wrapped, cake will keep for 3 days at room temperature.
If a frosting is not desired a simple dusting of confectioner sugar will compliment nicely.
Icing Ingredients
1. 1 cup peanut butter
2. 1 stick butter, softened
3. 2 cups confectioner sugar
4. 1 tablespoon milk
Icing Directions
1. Beat peanut butter and butter until fluffy, add sugar one cup at a time, beat until fluffy.
2. Add in tablespoon of milk and beat until fluffy and smooth. Frosting may require additional milk.
( WARNING: frosting tastes like Reese's peanut butter YO COULD BECOME ADDICTED! )
My Home EC cooking teacher Cris taught me this recipe and I am so gratful he did because it's awesome and I learned alot when we made it!

Hi! everybody!
Sorry it has been awhile since I last posted. Let me tell you what the Lord has done recently! He has aloud me to start a job at a day care, which, praise the Lord is in a church. Our family will soon be finishing school, and i am so excited for my senior year! Though the most recent event was last Saturday when the ladies from our church, Lighthouse baptist in NC and the ladies from Calvary baptist in NC had a very refreshing Mother/ Daughter Spring Luncheon. Mrs. Webb, the Pastor's wife at their church and our church right now, did the message and spoke some on dress tips that that I would like to share with you. There are three points first ( Wear your colors) Wear the colors that look good on you, if you look good in warm colors wear them ,and if you look better in neutral colors you might want to have more of them in your wardrobe and we could go on ,but you get the idea.. The next tip is very important (Wear your size!) Mrs. Webb put it like this , if you are a size 14 and you say I'm going to wear a size 12, then you are going to look like a size 14 squeezed into a size 12. That is not modest or flattering! It is similar with clothing that is to big, don't wear a 16 when you are a 14. You usually look like a bum when you do. The last point is (Beautify)! Some people are flashy some people are simple ,and some have a classic look to their style. Everybody is different, it all depends on your personality. NOW this is the most important part of all. Every one of us need to ask ourselves the question "Why am I wearing this?" ,or, "What message am I sending when I wear this?" Is it to dress for the Lord? Or is it to bring attention to myself? We are daughters of the KING , and we need to dress like it! It is for Him ladies not for us. We should dress appropriately. We should not come into church looking like we just rolled out of bed! Although we should not show up for visitation looking like we are going to the prom either. We are daughters of the KING, and our bodies are not ours. They are Gods! The temple of the Holy Ghost. I know that was lengthy, but it was something that was helpful to me, and so the Lord laid it on my heart to say ;) Hope it will be helpful to you! Pass it on......
