Certainly the first in my married life - I did not have the right pan before, but my Aunt Sib set it aside for me out of my Nanny's things and my parents brought it to me when they came to visit. This picture is of the cake's "good side". You are supposed to let them cool upside down, so the egg foam can "set", but it was really hot and I dropped it, so half of the cake kind of fell, but this one side is pretty.
I used Alton Brown's recipe.
The cake was served with strawberry sauce (pureed strawberries and sugar) and met with much approval :)

Let's face it I'm cute... I just read her shirt. Those cakes are tricky. the last one I made was REALLY spongy.
Yeah, mine came out kind of spongy too, not light and airy. I forgot to add the warm water. It wasn't that involved - except for separating a dozen eggs!
