Chocolate Cake

Did I ever post how I got really mad at my wok a few weeks back and I just threw it away. Yep, I just tossed it in the garbage, it was making me so angry because I think I had disturbed the integrity in the pan when I accidentally left the stove on for like 30 minutes after KT and I made popcorn. Anyway, now I don't have large frying pan. Sorry, I digress, back to the chocolate cake I made yesterday.

Here is a picture of how the batter looked when I put it in the cake pan...obviously...something was wrong


As you can see, the batter is like REALLY lumpy and doesn't really fit in the pan. I was like, WTF dude? WELL did you know that you have to add WATER to the batter?? YES it is true :) No wonder it was so hard to stir. After looking at the picture directions on the box for the like 4th time, I saw 1 1/3 cup water. Ridiculous. Here is how the batter looked eventually, yes I know, still a little lumpy, I still don't have a mixer. Now worries though, it turned out great!



Big wedding this weekend, Cousin Q's best friend is marrying her elementary sweetheart. They both have blonde hair. AWWW.

Love is in the air,
Ms. Non-Sequitur

One time i skipped the part on the mac and cheese directions that says "Drain". It was really gross.

Surprise! What did Talie and Ms. Sequitur find? HA I meant Ms. NON-Sequitur of course.... How exciting, a teeny tiny (or tee-niny as my Grandma B says) little critter. A baby gecko is gracing her presence on my keyboard. Check out this amazing video footage taken immediately upon noticing the gecko/lizard/cold blooded animal: PS: I made it to work today. I continue to do a Christian Cross each time I arrive somewhere. If anyone knows another religious type sayings I can do or say when I am safe, I would appreciate it. I'm not sure if Jesus and I are vibing.  BIG HUGS Non-Sequitur!

SATURday

In the Park...I think it was the 4th of July. (Think that song by Chicago) Well, it's the 7th today- So how was everyone's 4th? How do you feel about your independence? I was thinking about that-- how come we always say, "Happy 4th!" and not "Happy Independence!" Wouldn't it seriously be an adventure if we were still part of England? Maybe we'd all have British accents and Canada and the US would all be like one big country. Maybe we'd all have health care? And calling my Canadian friends wouldn't be long distance! Yesss! Pets are so much work. Man, I'm babysitting these fish and they are exhausting. I mean, I have to feed them TWICE a day. Come on! Hee Hee. :) I suppose that's why I murdered my fish in college...I mean I didn't murder him/her I just forgot to feed him/her for like a week or so and then he/she died. Do fish REALLY have a gender? No. They are all just fish. Fish sex (sex like making love) would b...

Whoa! What a cool place this Mutinondo  was!  It is is a woodland, wilderness area NORTH EAST of Lusaka about 10 hours by bus. (Sorry about the yelling, that is a little shout out to my friend, you know who you are) (Also,  let me know if the link doesn't work) There were these gorgeous look-out points and mountains....well, large granite hills, but they were steep enough and we climbed up 2 of them. It took about 30 minutes to get to the top of each.  In the top video I'm reaching the top of the mountain!  You can hear our cool driver Mr. K cheering? :) me on!  These photos are in no order exactly, but I'll talk a little about each one! I think this one is on top of the first mountain, called Charlie's Rock This is horse poop (I know you are supposed to say scat in the wilderness, but I think horse poop is funnier. The place has some horses that we didn't ride) The view. Whoa. A little creature roaming around. He was furry and I wonder ...
