But not due to the earthquake
Yes, I was shaken out of bed at 3:15 a.m. by a 4.4 earthquake a little bit south of here.
Fearing aftershocks, I opted to stay up.
I had a cake to bake, anyway.

This was the first bakery baking I've done in this oven.
It should have had the consistency of a pound cake instead of a box cake.
I may have over-sifted the cake flour.
I may have over-beat the batter.
The oven may not have been hot enough.
I may have rushed to release it from the pan.
But it tasted good, so ...
I just cut off the part that fell apart, iced it, and took it to the party, anyway.
