Rough Times Cake

This is a simple and not-too sweet cake, sometimes called "Depression Cake". It is free of eggs or milk, so it's vegan friendly, easy on the budget and delicious.

2 Cups Water
1/3 Cup Margarine
1 tsp Cinnamon
About 1/8 tsp Nutmeg
About 1/8 tsp Allspice

You should have your own TV show. You are so much more "real" than the glitsy magpies they have now in their perfect kitchens. Love your videos. ThankYou for taking time to do them.
