I feel so dumb. I was trying to find that recipe I did ages ago for the apple crumbly stuff and was getting so frustrated.

And then I remembered I'd posted it here for someone.

Commence forehead slapping.

IT HAS BEEN AGES SINCE LAST I POSTED. I finished The Demon's Lexicon. Wasn't terribly impressed. I've been baking some recently. I don't have pictures this time, but I do have a recipe for those interested. They were some pretty good brownies, which were meant to be turned into a sort of brownie-cookie hybrid, but by the time the batter was mixed I was feeling sick to my stomach and unwilling to put the extra effort into the cookie-molding bit of the recipe.

( in here is a recipe )

My brother has been in town for a week, and decided that we're going to a convention. I may try to enter the fanfic contest, though I hold little hope of winning anything. But what do I have to lose, besides my self-esteem, right? WE SHALL SEE. We may not even be going, so I'll wait until that gets decided.

My uncle is also staying with us for a while. It's not so bad, except for the part where HE AND MY BROTHER DON'T PUT THE TOILET SEAT DOWN AFTER THEY PEE. I have -not- missed sharing a bathroom with dudes at all. AT ALL. *rages*

Uhhh, I had something else to say, but it's gone now.

Oh wait. I've been listening to a lot of silly pop songs about love. It makes one lonely.

Also there is going to be a garage sale here in six hours and I want to kill myself. HOPEFULLY THE RAIN KEEPS UP AND WE WON'T HAVE TO DO IT. Ugh my aunt is gonna be here. I'm a little tired of her, honestly. This wedding cruise thing is making everyone crazy, especially me. Since I'm the one trying to coordinate everyone and everything. SOMEONE PLEASE PUT ME OUT OF MY MISERY.

I've been wanting to rewatch the X-Files recently.

That is all.

degrees: I just failed harder than I've failed in a long time

shahni: What happened?

degrees: So I was making a cake for dad's birthday, right?

degrees: I didn't want to use a box mix, I wanted to do it from scratch

degrees: I get everything mixed together, pop it in the oven, and then make cookies and cream frosting (OMG GOOD)

shahni: Uh-huhhhh?

degrees: And in 30 minutes I check it. It was still sort of soupy so I figured it was because the cake pan was made of silicone or something

degrees: So I left it in there a while, came back and checked it again, same problem

degrees: And again, and agian

degrees: Cake stayed in the oven for more than an hour

degrees: and then I looked at the recipe, and I'd forgotten to put any flour in it

degrees: I FELT SO RETARDED. IT WAS THE SECOND INGREDIENT ON THE LIST AND I SKIPPED RIGHT BY IT

degrees: So I pulled it out of the oven and dumped it down the sink. It was chunky cakevomit ):

shahni: ...oh my god.

degrees: Are you laughing at me ):

shahni: I'M SORRY

shahni: IT'S JUST

degrees: It's okay my mum and my aunt did too

shahni: HOW DO YOU FORGET

degrees: I DON'T KNOWWWWWWWW

shahni: TO PUT THE MAIN INGREDIENT IN

shahni: sldkfhsldhglskdhg

degrees: I'm retarded ):

In the interest of science (and just showing myself that I didn't really do -all- that much baking) here's a list of what exactly I've created in the kitchen in the last week.

Banana bread
Spritz cookies
Snickerdoodles
M&M cookies
Sugar cookies
Cinnamon rolls
Rice Krispies treats
French toast cupcakes
Cake balls
Chocolate truffles
--I never got around to the fudge, will do that tomorrow or something
--I never got around to the raspberry butter braid, will do that next week

...okay maybe ten things is a lot. I DON'T EVEN KNOW

And then nobody ate a thing I baked tonight (except maybe a couple of the cake balls). WHAT DID I EVEN SLAVE OVER THAT FRICKIN' OVEN FOR ANYWAY *kills self*

And as soon as I can get my hands on some walnuts, I'm making Russian tea cakes.

AND WHY IS MY FAVOURITE GIFT THE TIN OF CRANBERRY LIP BALM??? It's like one of the cheapest things I got, but it SMELLS AND TASTES SO GOOD ZOMGGGGGG

Also, I'm sick of my family and they've only been here for the evening. I BLAME MY TWO-MONTHS-LATE CROTCHLEAKING ~~and my family that tends to be kind of annoying~~

~~brothers can stay though~~

Happy Generic Nondenominational Holiday Season, everyone!! ILU ALL

I MADE APPLE STUFF

WITH CRUMBLY JUNK ON TOP

AND IT'S GOT SPICES

AND LEMON JUICE

I hate apples, but I might eat this

LOL @ me for making stuff that I don't eat just for the hell of it

Also the first time in forever that I'm inspired by the AA kink meme and someone fills it before me. WTF is up with that.

Is LJ not sending notifications for anyone else? Mine is a special sort of retardation, where it'll send replies to my comments, but not to my posts. D:

Ughhhhhh why am I up still?? STUPID THREE A.M.

I applied for unemployment today, hopefully that'll get dealt with soon. Nothing promising on the job front as of yet. Woe.

I forgot how much of a Martha Stewart I turn into when I'm unemployed. The other day, potato rolls. This evening, banana-chocolate chip cupcakes. Tomorrow, ~~the world~~ peach cobbler.

I EVEN WRAPPED THE CUPCAKES JUST NOW INDIVIDUALLY IN PLASTIC WRAP AND TIED THEM WITH RIBBON. Oh god I need a job.

Random fangirl moment: oh god Suwabara from Yakitate!! Japan is so cute. He thinks he got a girl pregnant just by hugging her. WHY SO NAIVE, KAI?

I had something else to say, forgot what it was. D:
