Mom's Applesauce Cake

1 c sugar
1 tsp soda

1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp nutmeg
1 tsp vinegar
4 Tbsp oil
1 c applesauce

Sift dry ingredients into a greased 8 inch pan.  (This is important.  I didn't grease last time and it really stuck!  Still tasted ok, though.)  Make 3 depressions.  Put oil in one, vinegar in one and vanilla in one.  Pour applesauce over mixture; mix well.  Bake 30 minutes at 350 degrees.  Serve from same pan.
