On A Rainy Day, Microwave Experiments

Today has been especially frustrating. Arguments with the family are never very uplifting. Neither are rainy days. But someone told me to smile because, well you know...Jesus loves you.
And they're right. One thing I've learned is that all that unnecessary drama just works for a higher purpose, but if you let your own selfish feelings get the better of you, you're missing out on another opportunity to love.

I'm leaving to go to the Feria de Manizales tonight...it's a 10 hour bus ride. Hence the bed rest for the past 4 days, trying to get that strength up! So I'll be out for a while. But I wanted to leave you all with a goofy experiment I tried with my momma this afternoon (after our argument). Letting go of bad vibes and moving forward is the only way to deal with such things.

So for your viewing pleasure, I present:
Coffee Mug Chocolate Cake or "The Internet Knows What It's Talking About"

Step 1: Mix questionable ingredients in a mug as your mother makes faces...

Step 2: Create sludge....

Step 3: Cook...




Step 4: Try it, give novice opinion.



(And yes, I revealed my swollen post-wisdom-teeth-removal face...don't I look wise?)

Step 5: Wallow in/eat your failure and enjoy! At least next time you can make it better...that's the great thing about mistakes, you learn from them. :)

Have a wonderful week loves! Remember to focus on the little things. I'll be back in a week's time to share my carnival experience.

Peace & blessings!
