Rain all day calls for baking -- or more specifically in my case, Rum Cake! I have been looking for any excuse to make Rum Cake, and today's downpour finally seemed like the perfect excuse for some cooking.
Cooking on a boat is always a but different than cooking in the comfort of your 'land homes.' While our oven is perfectly capable, everything is just a bit smaller, and in general you just never quite know what your going to get. A ferry wake could come by, and your whole cake could suddenly have a 45 degree slope (If you follow my Instagram, you'll see I know this from experience...) It is also difficult to gauge the temperature of the oven, calling forth the 'Franny method' of cooking -- which is pretty much the stress free, recipe free mentality of 'it'll be fine!'
Dreaming of the Abacos throughout all this rain!
