I need some information.
May. 14th, 2014 07:01 pm1. Less than a year ago, somebody wrote up a few charts showing the effects of a flat tax rate on the living wage of people at various income thresholds. Does anybody know where I can find this?
2. I made a cake for Ana's birthday. Made it right off the box of Hershey's cocoa. I've made that recipe before, never had a problem. The only two changes I made were halving it in order not to have a layer cake, and mixing it by hand rather than washing the mixer twice (once for the batter and once for the frosting). I didn't put it in the oven until the oven was fully preheated, and I didn't keep opening the oven to check on it. The baking powder is brand new.
But the cake finished about 5 or 10 minutes faster than I would've expected and failed to rise properly. Came out like a big, circular brownie. Still tastes okay, but definitely not what I would call "cake".
What did I do wrong? Any ideas?
