I I had known this I could have gone swimming with my sister.... *sigh*
Nevermind, life...
I really want to write a story....I mean just a short one, like off the top of my head.
Shall I do that right now???
Lets see what my imagination can do.
-----
Ok so
Once upon a time,
There was a young man called Gerald who lived by the sea.
He loved how the water looked, he loved how it smelt, he loved how it sounded, but he was terribly afraid of it.
Everyone in the small village where he lived wished he would conquer his fear.
It was a such shame, that he had such a great love for the rolling waves, but yet he could not bring himself to feel its touch.
There was, of course, a reason for his fear - there is always a reason for fear.
When he was very small he had been playing on the beach and had observed a tragic event.
A young couple had come with their newborn for a holiday and had misjudged the tide and a stray wave had caught the baby where it lay and had pulled it into the sea.
He never forgot the agony on the faces of those parents - their baby was never found.
From that day on he never stepped foot into the water, he didn't even let his younger sister on the beach until she was old enough to learn to swim.
If he could have kept her away forever he would have, but that would never happen because her boyfriend was the lifeguard.
Gerald disliked her boyfriend, but what could he do if his sister liked idiots?
One day at the height of summer he decided to go for a walk along the cliff with his dog Harriet.
He had heard that a pretty big part of the cliff face had come away during the last storm and he was hoping to find some fossils.
'LIZ!!' he called upstairs, 'I'm going out with the dog for a couple of hours, tell mum if she asks where I am.'
'NO!!!' Shouted his sister and ran downstairs, 'You can't go Gerry, mum wants the oven on at half past six so it can be heated up for dinner.'
Gerry frowned, 'You put it on then.'
'No I can't! I'm going to Steve's later.'
'TOUGH.' said Gerry, 'You're going to have to call him and tell him you can't make it. I'm going out, Harrie needs a walk anyway.'
Elizabeth pulled an annoyed face, 'UGH!!! I HATE YOU!!!' and stormed back upstairs
'I hate you more.' replied Gerry and stepped out into the afternoon sunshine.
He breathed in the coastal air, it was kind of salty and fresh and mixed with the aroma of fish and chips which was floating up from down the road where the chippy was.
'Why does mum have to make something in oven?' he thought, 'we should just have chips.'
He looked at Harriet who looked back at him and wagged her tail,
'Chips!' he said to her and she barked in reply.
'Come on girly, walkie first, and then I'll go see if there's any leftover fish at the chippy for you.'
He often got free meals from the chip shop because his girlfriends parents owned it.
He walked towards the coastal path and smirked as he heard his sister yell,'IDIOT.' from her bedroom window.
'Silly girl.' he said to himself
The path up to the cliff was bordered by tons of heather. There had been a few times when an adder had slithered across the path, so he never let the dog off the lead.
The vet didn't live close at hand - it would be so troublesome if a snake bite occurred.
--------------------------------------
Ok I have no Idea where this is going ROFL....that's all my head can come up with....ahhh so this is why I usually like to know the ending of a story before I start writing it...
Remember when I randomly started telling a story on bbvip sbox??? I wonder how that one ended, I got cut off.
I dislike unfinished stories :/
but I suppose they are better than stories that never start.
----
So, my lappy kind of fell asleep because the power wasn't connected and I didn't realise rofl.
So I was like poo this!!
Because no one was talking to me on msn or whatever. So I decided to make a cake.
Cakes are so easy to make!!! WHY do people find it hard???
I think maybe they don't like to follow instructions....hmmm
but yeah, I haven't done the icing yet because I have no icing sugar to make it.
I'm waiting for mum to come home because she said she would bring some for me :D
And I am going to make special butter cream ESPRESSO icing, because that will give it a total ZING!
It is a coffee and walnut cake after all...what's the point in a cake made from coffee if you can't get completely caffeinated by it.
Well I took some pictures while I was making it, so I'll post them now and then I'll take some more when its all iced and looking lush.
Get everything you need in order so nothing is forgotten (forgetfulness in baking is deadly) -
Grease and line two cake tins -
Mix butter and golden caster sugar in a nice big bowl -
It should end up looking something like this -
Add three eggs one after the other -
MIX WELL!!!! -
Add flour and baking powder -
Grind some walnuts -
Mix cake mixture to a smooth consistency -
Then add walnuts and a shot of coffee -
Stir in for about 4 seconds -
Place mixture in cake tins (do not drop on dogs head) -
Place cake tins in oven -
Wash dishes while the cake is baking -
After 25 min's remove cakes from oven -
Make some coffee syrup while the cakes cool in their tins -
Make a cup of tea, because you really want one by now -
Pierce cakes with a fork and then spoon the coffee syrup onto them so it soaks in nicely -
Leave cake on the side out of the reach of hungry doggies and then go upstairs and write a blog while waiting for mummy to come home with icing sugar -
And that is as far as I've got with the story of the cake.
Did you like it???
....even the cake story is unfinished -.-
And now I have no idea what to do while waiting...no one I love is online...sbox is =.=''
And I could watch a big bang concert...maybe SAL, but then, Sarah would want to watch it with me and she has to do her school work.
My back is hurting too.....LOOOOL stop complaining Minnie you idiot.
OHHH!!! THANKYOUUU!!!
My friend wants to webcam and show me her new haircut!! I'M SAVED!!
ahah she looked well cute!!!!!
Love it!! XD
.....
