I had a sudden and intense craving for pastries today, and on my way home, I stopped by the supermarket, as the local bakery was already closed.

And then I discovered that doughnuts are on sale this week, which meant the case was EMPTY save for a few sad plain doughnuts were lingering in the back. When all I wanted was an apple fritter.


So in order to wreck any petitions of eating healthily tonight, I had New York-style pizza and a Pink Russian.

Did you know that you can make them with soy milk? I used plain soymilk, and it tasted about the same. That is very convenient, seeing that the milk in the fridge expired three days ago.





I really want a takoyaki pan. I hate octopus, so I just want it to make pancakes. Maybe with banana or strawberry inside. Chocolate might work too. .____.

Banana pancakes sounds yes.

Also I just finished baking a giant assload of pastries, via working at a bakery.

And I didn't even eat any of them.

I saw this guy using the pan that was kind of like a takoyaki pan, except with larger indentions, to make these little pancake balls, and I wanted some so badly. I haven't had pancakes in a while.


I was told that they made double the usual amount of pastries, and they were still gone. (I walked in at sevenish.) I almost made myself compensation cake, but no one else was at home to help me eat it. I'm planning to go with the can of soda + box of cake mix method, because I think we don't have any vegetable oil. (We've switched to mostly olive oil, which is nice until you have to bake something.)

Compensation Cake is the best cake.

And the can of soda + cake mix thingamajigger sounds really good. But even though my job title is "Baker", and I spend 5 nights a week baking more random stuff than most people see in a day, I am terrible at making anything at home. I am the king of slapping things on the george foreman grill.

Well, there's also Passive-Aggressive cake, which involves baking a cake because you are Very Upset with someone, and then hiding it.


George Foreman grills are a godsend. Nothing wrong with that at all.

On the other hand, the soda thing is freakishly easy. Take a twelve ounce can of soda and a box of cake mix. Mix them together. Bake according to directions on box. And somehow, that makes cake. (It won't rise as much as it usually does, but you can really taste the cola.)

I used coke + chocolate the time I tried it, but I think I'm using root beer this time around.

They were OUT of apple fritters?
In Wisconsin, we'd have that store owner dragged in to the street and shot for such an offense D:

They were out TODAY as well- and I went at around noonish. They also didn't have the salad I wanted...although I thought they did at first.

Raw garlic looks like tiny balls of mozzarella if you aren't looking at it closely, what? >___>

So now I'm stuck craving apple fritters AND basil-coated mozzarella.
