not a very successful cake

Alma Mater has been ringing through our house for the last few days, and now that we have had the piano tuned it sounds beautiful. N is starting her piano lessons on Thursday.

We decided to make a cake this afternoon, well it is Sunday after all. I reached for the trusty Delia Smith's cookery book. All In One Sponge - sounded good. The recipe starts with the words...
'For me this is the best sponge of all and should work even if you've never made a cake before in your life'

That statement filled me with confidence - but this is how it turned out... even after N had made the special effort to hold the sieve up high as described in the recipe!!
I promise we used self raising flour!! never mind N enjoyed decorating it.
