tea time

We had another tea party of sorts with my auntie's family. I told my mum yesterday that I would not be baking anything for her because I'd be busy dying over and avoiding my revision. So she took this as an invitation to get me one of those 'ready-made/add an egg, that's it!' sets, you know the ones that include cake mix. I felt insulted, especially since she picked an ugly one. So I decided to take it as a challenge to completely change the mix. I used the cake mix, added cocoa power and made it into chocolate cupcakes. I'm more proud of the icing though, I took the icing sugar they provided, added in cocoa powder then added butter, and made it into butter icing! I was very proud. They looked great, tasted great, and my soul felt replenished after baking. I hate exams so much and I can't wait till they're over so I can spend my time doing things I enjoy such as bike-riding, baking and reading.
