Love in a Mug
I did a bad, baaaaad thing by writing Chocolate Gash Tortoise, omg. Dessert cravings like you wouldn't beliiieeeeve.
Part of my family went to Illinois for a funeral today, so I had the kitchen at my mercy. I made baklava. This helped.
I have also been experimenting with Cake in a Mug to vanquish the strong desire for chocolate cake. It's not exactly like oven-cake--a little rubbery and very ugly--but it works in a pinch. That recipe uses hot chocolate mix, and there's also this version for those you who have unsweetened chocolate powder sitting around. I found that an egg white does just fine, rather than a whole egg.
Yes, that was my breakfast.
With all the major suckage going on right now, I wish I could send each of you a warm mug of cake, or a piece of baklava. Bravo to all of you who have donated or who are offering yourselves up at help_haiti. Having not even finished my Sweet Charity fic yet (due six months ago, omg), I don't feel worthy. But I will cheer you all on. And as soon as I get my phone working again I'm going to do the text thing.
