cupcakes
its a little strange but my new unit didn't come with an oven. so last week puckey took me to myer, where i was able to use my gift card that i had recieved for xmas from my parents, and bought myself a nice little convection oven.
its quite lovely. puckey then proceeded to make me a roast for dinner! yum!
last night, i baked cupcakes. puckey bought me a cupcake recipe book for christmas, and as i wasn't doing anything else last night, i thought it was the perfect time to give baking in my new oven a go. i made myself some vanilla oreo cupcakes (i followed the vanilla recipe and then crushed up some oreos in the mix) with a vanilla buttercream icing.
i had a bit of trouble with the icing! it was a bit runny, the recipe said just to keep adding sugar but that really didn't do anything, so i refrigerated it and that seemed to fix it up.
those are my cupcakes. that i have absolutely no idea what they taste like! ha. but they look pretty cute i guess. kind of sloppy, but cute :D who doesn't love green icing?
i also had my hair shaved into a chelsea the other day for the worlds greatest shave.
so thats what my hair looks like now. i love it. it feels great and i can't stop touching the top of my head!
i'm supposed to be cleaning right now, so far i have cleaned the kitchen, tidied the living room, vacuumed the living room and the hallway. my kitty is hiding under my bed in fear. she doesn't like the vacuum cleaner at all, she hides when she seems me getting it out of the closet.
as you can see i'm procrastinating a little. back to it now i suppose. i need to give my room a good tidy!
