Which is a book of recipes for women who hate to cook.

And it has a very short dessert section, which regrettably is subtitled Because You're Fat Enough Anyway.

Oh, God.

Jesus Christ.

Yeah.

oh peg oh no and you know i choose to let that one go by but you don't have to i know it's that's a tough one but it's a different time yeah but it has a recipe for what peg bracken calls cockeyed cake and so this is this chocolate cake

But it's deceptively simple.

I made it.

I was amazed at how it turned out.

Like so when you made it, you liked how it tasted and all that.

No, I loved it because it doesn't have any dairy or any eggs.

Whoa.

And it's this sort of novelty recipe where you mix together dry ingredients and then you poke three holes, you know, in your like flour mixture.

And then I think into one, you put five tablespoons of oil.

Some recipes say six.

Into one, you put a little bit of vanilla.

And into the third, you put some vinegar.

And it has baking soda.

And so the vinegar and the soda combine and leaven it while it's cooking.

And also you can make it right in the pan that you bake it in.
