As we sit here and speak I am awaiting the drying out of a banana cake I haphazardly made whilst in a painkiller haze of food cravings. I added an ingredient I should not have, banana cakes do not need more moisture, and I also left out the baking powder so... the cake has been cooking for a fair while now with foil on top after the allocated baking time ensured everything was baked but not free of excess moisture. At least it is a lighter topic than the last which I doubt shall be coming up again unless someone else were to bring it up. You may also have noticed the addition of a heading picture which I have decided to add as a 'thing' to each post because I am a very visual person so I would prefer a larger amount of pictures than I have had already which is a pitiful few at best. Plus, it brings a smile, to me anyway.
Moving on, my purse finally arrived and after realising I am living on borrowed money (overdraft) I went to poundland to buy myself some long term treats that would help keep the spirits up. I went for fizzy drink cans (I have cut down after being a junkie to the stuff), chocolate fingers for the freezer along with two notebooks and a ring I have already misplaced but will share with you once I find it as I continue the façade that someone both reads this blog and enjoys doing so. If you do, thumbs up to you from Lola Hq.
The purse & notebooks, cute yes? Yes.
The banana cake is a flop, I shall repeat the recipe tomorrow and share the results. Let experimenting with recipes we knew off by heart as a child and have now forgotten begin! Maybe I should use twitter more, share some of what people have referred to as 'funny things' I say. I'm wary, I understand if you are too. A failing twitter is a badge of honour no one wants but I've never really thought of it, what is a failing twitter? All I want to use it for is to entertain the friends I have by sharing my hopefully witty imaginings. Who knows where that will go. Hmmm, hmmm indeed.
The cake is a failure and the internet is being moody, maybe it has begun to learn from me.
The idea behind the notebooks is that they will be allocated to the small short stories I have begun to store in my head and although I have yet to use them they are working, things on my lists and the ever present pain tend to get in the way as nothing helps writer's block like crippling pain. Yes, it has been pretty bad recently and my need to pee has become likened to what I imagine pregnant women suffer from. And yes, like a lot of people, despite the guarantee I am not with child a small fear resides in my head, burrowed just behind the ear.
I guess this post is just a small update with the assurance that not all of my rambling will be miserable and serious, just in case you are actually there in which case Hi, nice to see you.
It has been an okay day, I finished watching Wolf of Wall Street early this morning and watched the second maze runner film today, both good and worth a peek and a worthy excuse for not completing more on my list like write, do art or keep cleaning instead of just the washing up and bins. The cake was a flop but the day doesn't have to be. Insert cliché saying here.
Peace and handshakes to all ✨✨✨
