baking a cake, baking and relaxing, bread machine, chocolate chip cake, trying and trying again

Work has been busy and stressful, so I got away from it for awhile by trying to make a cake in the bread machine, again.

Last time I tried, a few weeks ago,  it was inedible.  Well, I ate it anyway.  I can eat anything if it toasted with butter.

I realized I had put double the amount of flour last time, so this time I read the recipe carefully.

The result was better than last time, but still was not a success.
