And, now, for the "silly goose" part. MeLissa's mom called today and mentioned that she saw Erin's promise of an eggless chocolate cake recipe and told MeLissa it sounded like her Grandmother Naomi's Wacky Cake recipe. So, erhem, yeah, MeLissa has had an egg free recipe all this time...and simply didn't remember it! The Wacky Cake recipe in MeLissa's stash is essentially a mirror image of Erin's cut in half. *sigh* At least we've finally been enlightened!
