Cake with no eggs

I saw another recipe on In Iowa Today but this one I actually wanted to try! It's a cake made with no eggs! How many times have you been ready to make some cake (probably store bought) only to realize you don't have any eggs? It's so hard to remember to get those little things, and then when you do remember, sometimes they sit in the bottom of the fridge, or the door forever.

I swear, when you have plenty of eggs, you forget about them or don't use them, and when you need some there aren't any to be found! Once again she took a picture of the ones she made. I think I have everything I need to make this one...except cocoa powder....*grumbles*

Wacky Cake
1 1/2 cups unbleached all-purpose flour
1 cup sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt1 teaspoon vanilla
1 teaspoon vinegar
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 cup water, cold
Mix flour, sugar, cocoa, soda and salt.Make three wells in the flour mixture.In one put vanilla; in another the vinegar, and in the third the oil.Pour 1 c cold water over all and stir.No need to beat.Pour into 8 x 8-inch pan.Bake at 350 degrees F oven until it springs back, about 30 minutes

Peanut Butter Frosting
1/2 cup peanut butter, smooth
