Computers and Cake.

My computer has been acting up for the past couple months and I'm finally going to take it in to a repairman today. Not sure if this is going to be a hard break or a welcome one. I'm quite attached to my mac, but it may be time for a replacement. I've had this baby for 4.5 years. Isn't that about the lifespan of a computer? I'm hoping the computer expert can fix it. I'm rather fond to this white imac.

My postings may be sparse while my computer is out of commission, so I thought I'd leave you with one of my favorite recipes ever. This may look like an ordinary chocolate cake, but it is so much more! Seriously Delish. (Check it out...no eggs! Vinegar in a cake? Don't be scared. It's really, really yummy.)
