The Most Delicious Cake You Have Ever Seen...

Many of you who know me know I love to bake. I am pretty good at it too! I love the fact that baking involves recipes and everything is measured exactly there is no guess work involved. I find it relaxing to bake, I love the anticipation of waiting for that ooey, gooey, sweet, delicious, dessert to come out of the oven, and then waiting even a little longer for it to cool until you can't take it anymore and you have to eat it while it is hot. I just love everything about baking! I also love the fact that everything I bake turns out great! It always has, now cooking is another story but baking I can do. Until last night......

I have been sick for the last 4-5 days with some kind of cold/flu thing that will not go away! To make myself semi-conscious I have been drugged up on a continuous flow of cold medicine so I don't choke on the massive amounts of snot running out my nose and down my throat. To top it all off I started coughing and my head is killing me. Yes I know I should go to the Doctor, but I am starting to feel better now, and the streams of snot are slowing down. Anyways, last night Jeremy came home craving my homemade chocolate cake, he wanted it so bad he was even willing to go to the store and buy eggs so I could make it for him. Well, what do you say to that, he has taken such great care of me these last few days and he has worked so hard lately so I could not resist his plea for cake. So I agree to make the cake and we head to the store to buy eggs. When we get back I begin making the cake. I check all the ingredients and measurements 3-4 times because I know I am drugged up on cold medicine and sometimes it can cloud your thinking. I make it through the recipe without any problems, poor the cake into the cake pans and bake. The cakes bake, I remember to take them out on time, let the cool a little and then go to take them out of the pans.....the cakes are stuck! They will not move! I beat gently on the pans and still no moving of cake is going on! I must have forgotten to spray the cake pans before I put the cake in the pans, so here sits my beautiful chocolate cakes that we are now going to have to scrap out of the cake pans into a "cake heap" on a plate. Jeremy proceeds to laugh at the pile of of cake that lays before him, I have to admit it was quit comical, I never made something quit like it. It tasted great! But the looks not so up to par.
