Drinks in the Morning

Today I woke up, brushed my teeth, went to the kitchen, cut open an English Muffin to toast and opened a jar of FOREST BERRIES jam. 

The next thing I knew it had opened with this unusually loud POP and gas started streaming out of the jar for about a minute. So I had a sniff and the jam now smelt like alcohol..

Conclusion: our jam had fermented. Wth?? I assume the gas was CO2 then. But really? Reaaally? 

I may start my own jam brewery haha. 

Other news: I am still over the word count for this stupid placenta assignment by 161 words. URGGHHHH ...

Also: I kind of want jam now :(

Cake of Doom

So I tried to make a cake for Mother's Day...

How to make the Cake of Doom

 1. Find a promising cake recipe online with positive reviews. 
 2. Combine eggs, flour, vanilla essence, milk etc into a bowl. Mix until you have a promising cake batter that smells pretty promising. 

 3. Place cake into preheated oven at the temperature specified by the recipe. 

 4. After 3 minutes, realise that a burning smell is coming from the oven. Open oven to find that the cake has somehow been burnt all over on top but remains quite raw underneath. 
5. Be alarmed by smoke issuing from the oven. 
6. Decide to counteract this by flipping cake over and baking the raw base. 
7. Take cake out from oven after 2.5 hrs of attempted 'fixing' and initiate an emergency operation using a knife and pink icing. 
8. Realise, halfway through the operation, that said cake has already gone to a better place. Humanely dispose of cake.


Sadly reflect on what could have been: 




9. Wash up the huge mess created by emergency operation.




If you complete all these steps, you have succeeded in making the Cake of Doom!

Smiling Leaf and Broken Plate

Decided to be a wannabe photographer for the morning. This is my fav pic cos the leaf looks like it's smiling haha.Took me so long to format these pics in a normal looking arrangement but yeah. Hopefully I can improve in the near future (Y) 




The last pic is my backyard overall. Couldn't fit everything in but you get the general picture (pun intended) hehe. LAST DAY OF HOLS! I am struck by pangs of great sadness. Man I don't want to return to uni just yet... :(
