BAKING FRENZIE

I don't know whether its because its what I do when i'm
stressed.. but I love baking at the moment!
Here are the latest:

Traditional Christmas Cake. A quick recipe where the cake doesn't have to stand for days, and the alcohol can simply be poured on the top!




And here it is finsished:




Next up is gingerbread cookies!
However I wanted them chewy so used Golden Syrup instead of brown sugar. Delicious!


The gingerbread MAN was the best one!


Mmmm Chocolate Cake....

Me me me, I I I , Self Self Self

An EXAGERATION about me:

1)  England bores me. Especially the winter. I can't stay in one place for too long. I would like to see some form of differen't culture. 

Soon.

2) I have a proper job now which pays real money. And its regular. And i'm on a salary. I can't do what I want when I want. Maybe this will put order in parts of my life and then I'll be able to organise the rest of it. 

3) I have spent so much time trying to make things how they should be, I think I forgot how to be happy and to do things I enjoy. So now I have started learning KOL on guitar, reading lots more and painting lots more.

4) I love to eat breakfast outside. Especially toast. Oh and drink tea. 


5) I love love LOVE to drink tea outside any time of day. Especially the evenings. Around 9pm.




6) Sitting on a wooden floor, eating chinese food and drinking red wine, is one ofmy favourite things to do.


7) I like to paint people all abstract and still make it look like them.


8) I have a recent new found love for the pretty reckless. 'Does What I'm Wearing Seem to Shock You, Well Thats Ok. Cause What I'm Thinking About You Is Not Ok'


9) Eating and driving has to be one of the best things ever! Especially on long boring drives by yourself. Custard creams seem to speed things up.
