Buttermilk Lemon Cake Attacks Once Again!

Hey guys! Hope you all are enjoying your break. I have absolutely no classes today. Just homework. English homework. I absolutely ADORE my English homework. It's very easy and fun, though a bit challenging at some times. Everyone gets writer's block at some point.

I nearly forgot why I made this post. Today I'm making Buttermilk Lemon Cake, again! It's for a bunch of people tonight. We're going to a Thanksgiving dinner thing. I don't really know why they're having it because Muslims don't celebrate Thanksgiving. I guess they feel like they need the break. But if someone brings turkey I'm going to scream because we should have nothing to do at all with the actual Thanksgiving customs. That is, of course, unless people like turkey.

It's almost December. After some calculations, I discovered that I'm supposed to finish Algebra II on February 18, 2015. Somehow I missed four weeks of it and I'm twenty lessons behind. So that's all I'll be torturing myself with over the weekend. :P Honestly though, if my future job is to be an author, I don't need algebra at all! Maybe minor if I make money, but why would I need to insert quadratic equations and radical signs in my life? I saw this awesome thing somewhere on Google+ (I think). It was like, "Who needs algebra? We're only going to need to find the x if we become pirates." At that, I pointed both my pointer fingers at the picture and said, "UH-HUH! TRUEDAT!"

Kidding. I did that in my head.

My mom is making spring rolls at the moment, and when she's done, I'm gonna bring the cake to action. This cake calls for a glaze, consisting of 1 tablespoon of lemon juice and 3/4 cups of confectioners' sugar. I wanted to try making the cake with oranges instead of lemons this time, but my sister suggested I make the glaze with oranges. So that's what I'll be doing! Oh, here's the downside of it all. We got rid of our Bundt pan because it's messed up, and our tube pan leaks (I don't know why we kept it). As a result I must use a pound cake pan. I don't really fancy those, but it's okay, if there's no other option.

Another idea is whirring up in my mind. Ignore it. *ignores idea*

Well, while we wait for Mother to finish the spring rolls, I will tell you a little about my life since I last posted. I got sick two Fridays ago, and I'm partly okay now, but my sister refuses to be near me in case I breathe on her. Which, unfortunately, is going to have to happen. Sorry, sis. Maybe another time. ;D Also, I finished reading Rick Riordan's The Sea of Monsters. Very good. Now I have to read the first book of the new Warriors series, although I'm not very excited about it. I don't care at all about the dawn of the Clans. I want to know how ThunderClan lives on under the eye of Bramble. (SPOILER ALERT!!) Yesterday. I watched Goosebumps: The Ghost Next Door. That movie still scares me, even though I know what will happen. I watched Dumbo too. And, um... that's probably all I should give you guys. Oh wait! There's no archery or calligraphy club this week. That's the only downside of this darned Thanksgiving break.

OMG. I just forgot a really important thing I wanted to say. Oh yeah! I wanted to talk about pumpkin pie!

Wait my mom is done! I'll catch you later!

I am back after 2 hours, possibly. The cake made me feel so horrible about myself that I had to eat a spring roll to make myself feel better. I have no idea what to do, what to think. I have just insulted cake nation.

Errr...... I'll update with  pics later maybe.
