I have no idea what long-dormant holiday-baking gene flipped on yesterday, but I now provide actual photographic evidence that I am not completely incompetant in the baked-goods department:



Granted it was supposed to be a sponge cake and one may discern even from this picture that "light" and "fluffy" do not appear to be appropriate adjectives to apply to it, but it is a cake, and it did not come out of a box, either. The kitchen is, um, well, we won't get into what the kitchen looks like, but still, cake! From scratch!! And reasonably edible!!! which is a nice bonus but really it's the sense of accomplishment that's most satisfying here. It's got jam in it, people! { <-- insufferably pleased with Self for remembering the jam}
