Sea Monsters

Yep, that's what I think of when I have to drain my kitchen sink. Every time I have to roll up that right sleeve and dive in all the way up to the elbow, I wow I will never pour tea leaves in the sink, I will always scrape the plates and by golly I'll always toss dry rice from the pot straight into the trash. But that's a lie, I never remember to do it until the sink looks like a dark scary , COLD ocean.
And then it begins, the dreaded immersion in to the unknown, the creatures crawl up my skin, they tangle between my fingertips, they are slimy, sticky stinky! Oh how I hate my Sink Ocean!

I just irrigated it though, now I need to lift all the dying creatures and put them to rest... They don't like it, I can't stand it, but it has to be done. I like my sink clean, don't get me wrong, but I like dumping the contents of my mug straight in the sink, I like not scraping my plates into the trash bin, I like it! it's easy! leave me alone!


oh btw the main culprit of my Sink Ocean this time was this beauty ;) I tossed the cake pan in the sink and flooded it with water, Sink Ocean was very dark, rich chocolate color:)
here it is:
Crazy Chocolate Cake --triple C ;)


I am not going to share the recipe for now, I have no time at the moment, but I will , promise :)

Truly Madly Deeply yours ;)

'bloggy' frustration

I've been fighting with my blog recently, it's been causing unnecessary grief in my life,
so I played the 'ignore it and it will go away" game for a while now. It didn't go away,
I missed it instead ;)

Somebody's got to be smarter I guess...

I have tried posting a few times and It kept telling me there's some error preventing it to post my stuff, so we had a fight and i haven't spoke to it since Christmas...I made yummies,but i guess nobody will ever know how good they were, I hate going back to things, the moment is gone, so is Christmas tree (lie, i just lied! :) i still have it up, too lazy to move it, but it doesn't excite me anymore,so it's good as gone )

I made an awesome pund cake yesterday, stuffed my face with it and worked it all of doing bodyflex this morning, so here's the shot of it, drool all you want,it won't go to your hips ;)

the recipe is generic I used one from about.com website.
I made my glaze with 1cup of powdered sugar. fresh lemon juice and a drop of yellow food color.

p.s I watched  "it's complicated' yesterday... Merryl Streep is on the roll, good on you girl! ;)
