sites; tom; cake in a jar!

Worked on some website stuff today. Commission-y things as well as tiny updates to my own. Somewhat accomplished? There's still that one that I don't really want to start on. Ugh. Don't care at all.

Tom McRae's site is still down. What is up with that? Have sent an e-mail to inquire. In other news, he will be back in NYC at the Living Room October 29 & November 5. Both are Wednesdays. Hopefully I'll be able to make one of those and go see Tom again with ozw. In other Tom news, have finally heard the song, "Lipstick" that he did with Wills & the Willing. Like it a lot. Forked over $3 at mbop megastore for a copy as I refuse to touch iTunes.

Made cakes in a jar! Was a bit tragic. I think I filled the jars too much. And the batter I used (Pillsbury Funfetti mix) is a bit sweet. I think it would have gone better if I used smaller jars, so I might go find some and give it another go.



All my ingredients laid out.


Batter mixed, jars are greased and floured.


I'm pretty sure I put too much batter in the jars. I think the estimate I saw online said 3/4 and... there's more than that in these.


Too much batter = esplodey!


With the lids on. I did end up cutting off the excess from the top to get the lids on.


Four hours later, I cracked one open. Tasty and definitely a moister cake, but the jar is way too big. Unless you plan on sharing with a couple people.



Well. That was enough productivity for the day. I think I'll go lay about for a while.
