[Sca-cooks] Cake mix, was Why not just water in Mac and cheese

[a5foil]

But of course now they do have "just add water" mixes, as well as the
regular ones. I guess -- no, I *KNOW* -- that "cooking" isn't very important
any more, for a lot of people. (Our local grocery does a land-office
business in pre-prepared meals for two -- main dish, 2 veg, carb dish and
dessert in a paper bag.)

Last night I was at said grocery, and my not-quite-14-year-old daughter (not
the French-class one) was looking at the cake mixes and asked if she could
bake a cake. I said, "Sure. You can do some research (on non-dairy cakes)
and make one from scratch!" She'll do it, too.

And for me, today's project is converting the coconut pie recipe to
non-dairy.
