If you’ve been passing the time during the quarantine by stress baking, but you’re quickly running out of dairy, don’t worry. You can make this simple-yet-delicious “depression cake” that doesn’t require milk, butter, or even eggs.

Also known as “wacky cake,” the recipe calls for flour, sugar, and cocoa powder, plus a few other pantry staples. You can stir it up in one bowl and when it’s done, finish with powdered sugar, whipped cream, or nothing at all. The result is a sinfully delicious cake that’s a crowd-pleaser (or in this case, quarantine-pleaser!).

The cake, which gets its name from the cakes baked during the Great Depression when rations were limited, is currently making a big comeback as many home bakers are searching for recipes that are tasty but also extremely adaptable.

This Depression-era recipe has become a trend among quarantine bakers.

Alicia Keys Moonlights as a Best-Selling Author

RISE UP After you’ve spent a month conversing almost exclusively with family members, it’s a treat to hear Alicia Keys’ voice over the phone. Even more refreshingly, the 15-time Grammy Award-winning singer, songwriter, actress, producer, entrepreneur, and activist doesn’t play down her excitement over the success of her memoir, “More Myself.” She says, “I made it to the best-seller list and I’m ecstatic!”

Keys describes her book, currently at No. 9 on the hardcover nonfiction list, as “the honest journey of how I found my way to becoming who I am as opposed to being what I’ve been told to be.” The book begins when she’s 7 and follows her path to stardom, potholes, and all — including reflections on her father’s absence and the shame she felt, at 19, when she was manipulated into posing provocatively at her first magazine cover shoot. After that, she writes, “I swear that I will never again let someone rob me of my power.”

Working on the book was cathartic for Keys — a process she describes as “getting down recollections, thinking, realizing, uncovering, starting, stopping, ebbing and flowing.” She didn’t know her co-writer, Michelle Burford, beforehand but now, she laughs, “I know her better than anyone on the planet. I never had a better therapist.” Of the difference between putting words on a page and setting them to music, Keys says, “With any creative endeavor, you’re on the line — with people’s judgment, with your own idiosyncrasies and neuroses. You’re going to have fear. You’re going to have to overcome the fear. You’re going to have doubts. You’re going to overcome the doubt. You’re going to have anxiety. You’re going to overcome the anxiety.”

Piers Morgan says his friend President Trump is ‘failing the American people’

The coronavirus pandemic is “the biggest news story that many of us have ever dealt with,” Piers Morgan says, and it requires “a different approach from the traditional news anchor approach.”

“Viewers want to see the passion, they want to see anger, they want to see the focus,” Morgan said.
.
That’s what the former CNN host has been bringing to his interviews on “Good Morning Britain” on the ITV network. Morgan, who has courted controversy his entire career, has earned applause for challenging British lawmakers and health officials about shortcomings when it comes to handling the coronavirus crisis.
.
Morgan applied the same “feet to the fire” approach while talking about his longtime friend President Trump on Sunday. He returned to CNN for an interview on “Reliable Sources” and said that Trump “is failing the American people” on almost every level.

Trump Boasts He Likely Saved ‘Billions’ Of Lives In A Nation With 330 Million People

Leave a comment

.

President Donald Trump busted his boastful exaggeration record Saturday when he claimed he likely saved “billions” of lives with his measures against COVID-19. The entire population of the U.S. is just 330 million.

Trump had claimed Monday that he saved “tens of thousands” or possibly “hundreds of thousands” of lives because in late January he restricted foreign nationals from entering the country if they’d been in China the previous two weeks. The restrictions did not apply to Americans, however, allowing a conduit for the disease to enter the U.S.

Trump made his outlandish “billions” claim at his press briefing Saturday. Based on some models, the COVID-19 death toll in the U.S. was predicted to reach 100,000 to 220,000, he noted. “I really believe it could have been billions of people [who died] had we not done what we did,” he added. “We made a lot of good decisions.”
