Last night, I went to make banana cake. I had taken the bananas out of the freezer before I left for work in the morning and put them in the fridge to thaw out so they'd be ready when I went to use them. With bananas thawed and butter in the bowl, I then remembered that I had no eggs. Plus, having just finished my laundry, I was in no fit state to be seen by the public.

And, out of the corner of my eye, salvation. I have the internets! Finding stuff on the internets is easy if your Google-Fu is strong. A quick search later (egg substitute baking), I found what I was looking for and continued on. The batter came together the way it should have and even tasted right (yes, I like eating batter. When I was a kid, my sister and I used to fight over who got the spoon/beaters and who got the bowl).

Instead of cake, I made two dozen cupcakes. I just finished eating one and you'd never know there was no egg in it. :)

Egg Substitute
2 tbsp water
1 tbsp oil
1/2 tsp baking powder

-makes the equivalent of 1 egg
-not recommended for recipes calling for more than 1 egg

I had intended to bring a dozen of them into work today, but I had one of the_daily_rant's cookies last night (which were made with almond butter and quite tasty) and I can't remember if I washed my hands right after or not. Instead of stressing over potential nut allergens among my co-workers, I put the container in the freezer with will bring them to game on Sunday instead. :D

Um. Game Sunday? *blink*

Yeah...Omikron. Or did I miss that memo?

Hmm. Unless I'm misremembering (which I admit is entirely possible), I thought we'd left last game by saying "we'll have to wait and see what people's schedules are like and we'll email later on." And I haven't gotten any emails since.

But as I said, it's entirely possible that my brain is made of spam.

That's what I have written down...

I've asked our great and glorious GM for confirmation and email a reminder if this is so.
