ZUCCHINI CAKE

Life Rule: Politics have no place in the kitchen. Scratch that. When you’re dealing with a devil red commie, politics are everywhere. Typically it’s the commie who infuses every conversation with a dash of political scientology, like a tainted compass pulling the needle to a most untrue north. But when it comes to this dish it was all commie karma. See, my wife wasn’t quite my wife or even my fiancé when she whipped up this dandy of a dish, and from what she tells me I liked it. Wish I could say I remember. But what I do remember is that her commie roommate, Becky, (and she’s an avowed commie so I’m not insulting her even though her entire political philosophy is based off the same premise that says it’s okay to use a guillotine for circumcisions) made the same dish and I DO remember hers. The commie crashed, Sputnik spiraling to earth. You see, my wife, who stands at 5'9", placed the baking soda too high on the shelf for commie roommate to reach. In a pinch, Becky decided to substitute baking soda with baking powder, which equals brick! ...That's ok; the quiche restored her reputation in the kitchen.
