Bake A Cake

This morning, I got woken up by my friend who jumped on top of me while she was having a coffee. It might sound tacky and cheesy, but it was really cute. Since she spend the night with me, we were really bad and stayed up until 1 AM. We came home after 5 hours spending time in the city walking around dressed up as a 'Zwarte Piet' since Sinterklaas arrived again. My (volunteers)work needed two person to hand out flyers and such so I said we'd do it and we did. It was actually a lot of fun, but some kids are really a pain in the ass and they're rude. It's weird when you're dressed up, because you really can't risk saying anything bad since Sinterklaas doesn't exist. Though, dressing up was fun and somehow you become famous in a blink. People took pictures with us and asked for candy and asked how Sinterklaas was doing, it was cute.

The make-up was everywhere. And with everywhere, I do mean everywhere; my earlobes and inside my ear is still black and inside my nose a bit as well. In my hair there's still make-up. After the long day, we went home ate something and spend 1,5 hours in my bubblebath. I should take more time for bubblebaths with friends, it's really cool to do, plus very fun as well! Then we watched Tangled downstairs and moved our asses to my parent's bedroom where we could sleep and watched Thor for an hour. One word: Loki.

She left this morning really early, which left me wandering around the house, cleaning stuff, feed Napoleon and the fishes. Then, I decided to back a cake and some muffins. I found a few packages to make cakes and cupcakes of, so it was really easy. I also made a playlist to listen to while baking and such, but in the end the soundtrack of Amélie it was. It was marvelous.

I found these packages in our closet, but I only used the front two. The Stracciatella Cake mix and the muffin mix. I love these mixes, because I am lazy and I only have to add some eggs and water and you have your mix fully done. 20 minutes to an hour in the oven and you're done. Of course I always use things to make it look more decent: I add sprinkles, chocolate sauce or topping

This is supposed to be our chocolate cake mix. It looks fucked up, it also took 1 hour to bake.

First I wanted to have it blue but I figured out I had to use the whole bottle to get it smurf-ish blue, and I didn't want that. Instead it got a bit tooth-paste colored and after that I found a red bottle, which I put in it and created this masterpiece. It wasn't fully stirred, so it became purple/pink with the toothpaste colored one.

Oops, still some blue!

And as the final result, which is absolutely delicious... THE CAKE.

Even though I spend my day baking cakes and sorting out our 500 DVDs plus making lists on the computed for printing out and adding to the baskets, I had a fun time. You know what's still bothering me though? Why is it that I really don't miss having friends or doing something fun, like going outside and party. I don't miss it. Is it me or is it in general, that I come from this wicked generation we're a shitload of badasses who spend their time on tumblr and on the internet instead of socializing, making new friends and eventually get a boyfriend? Mmm. Someone should explain me! X
