Using Club Soda in Baking?

Cooking with Coconut Oil?
I use coconut oil for everything Id use regular oil for. I also use it on my lips when theyre dry & sometimes my skin. A jar costs about 10 dollars but it lasts forever. I dont use it in baking cakes anymore, because I stopped using oil & eggs in them as Club...

Leaving an Abusive Boyfriend?
You dont tell him anything. You wait till hes gone from the house, get your stuff together, slowly if necessary, pick a day to pack and go to a battered womens shelter. The phone book, Churches, social services, policemen, whoever, can tell you where the nearest...

Leaving an Abusive Boyfriend?
Also, tell your family and the police about the threats AFTER youve left. They can protect themselves as best they can, but you take care of YOU first. Youre worth it.

Verbally Abusive Husband?
Leave now. Life is too short to put with crap like that. You are a good person who deserves love and respect and right now you are getting neither. Pack up & leave, go to the courthouse & start divorce proceedings (you can do the paperwork yourself), change...

Carrot Cranberry Prune Cake
I also had some leftover flaked coconut, so I toasted that & sprinkled that in the middle & on top. Also forgot to add that with all box cake mixes; if it asks for 2 eggs always add 4 & if it asks for 3 eggs always add 5. Its so much more moist that way!

Pound Cake Came Out Dry?
Use 2-3 more eggs and use mayonnaise instead of oil. Also only cook it in the time alloted and remove it from the oven (as it will still continue to cook) or turn the oven off 10 minutes before the cooking time is finished.
