Brownie In A Mug


I am often perusing the interweb, I love kittehs and pugs and corgis and little baby goats. The Internet is so awesome. You can go to a farm/petting zoo without having to go to a farm/petting zoo. What, I’m scared of chickens. Them bitches are scary.
Anyway, I finally saw a food picture/recipe meme I could actually do. Not like those seven layers rainbow cakes or cupcakes turned into a baby panda. A MICROWAVE BROWNIE!!!!!
Being a massive dessert person, and having those ingredients in my pantry, I gave it the old college try. (I hate it when those recipes expect you to have like essence of newt in you kitchen, it’s like “yeah, I’ll pop down to Diagon Alley during my weekly shopping and grab some.” I hate life.)

Holy CRAPOLA this was so easy to make!!!! It worked too.

¼ cup flour
¼ sugar
2 tablespoons cocoa powder
3 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons olive oil
Pinch o salt
A mug to chuck everything into and then consume in once cooked. 

Mix dry stuff.
Mix wet stuff.
Stir like a mother until all melded together.
Zap that mother for 1 minute and 40 seconds. The recipe says on ‘high’ setting. But my microwave is close to 30 years old, I just put in time and am like “cook, bitch, cook!”

There you have it. A freaking brownie. Frigging dessert in a mug. This just amazes me. I hate it when you have to convince someone or even yourself to go and get dessert when you are craving warm chocolaty goodness and then you buy a frozen dessert and it takes 45 minutes to cook. NO. Not this time!

What's In My Bag Blog Post

  So I am perfectly aware that this is a YouTube thing however I think it is an awesome way to know whether or not you want this certain blogger or YouTuber in your life. It’s like a “first impressions” for social networking. Not that I condone judging person on first impressions or denouncing someone by the contents of their bag but it’s a fun “get-to-know-you-super-quick” thing and I don’t do videos so I’m going to attempt a blog post “What’s In my Bag”. My handbag is an Enzo Rossi black computer bag. I got it last year for my birthday. I don’t use it as much as I’d like but there isn’t that much space considering it’s size but it’s pretty, so who cares? I carry a lot around with me, much more than I need. I always have a massive bag. I simply cannot condense it; my anxiety-riddled mind won’t let me. I take out a lip balm and that voice whispers “you may need that and when you do, then what?” and back in it goes. Firstly, I have a large clutch whi...
