I got pawned today... totally owned...
By a chiffon cake. Sorry, correction, by 2 chiffon cakes to be more exact.
I don't know why, today just wasn't my day to bake cakes. When the first chiffon cake flopped, I thought it was because I miscalculated the amount of flour, and so with renewed determination (damn you all cakes, I'm the boss here so boo-yah! You all better submit to me, you bunch of air-filled, spongey nilly-willies!!! >.<) I tried baking another one...
Which turned out the same as the first one. Just that it tasted better because of the right amount of flour.
Totally pawned. I was so exhausted by the end of it. Thank goodness the quiche came out right... or so it seemed. Now to wait for the tasters' comments.
Then I went online to find out the reason why (cause I'm freaking disgruntled) and I read that chiffon cake-making is actually quite a mysterious event. There have been cases where professionals bakers just simply can't produce a proper cake on a certain day. o.O;;;
Hmm... spooky. But one thing I've learnt is never give up (I'm gonna beat the crap out of you, nilly-willies *rawr*!!!) and never take things for granted. I was scared stiff for a minute or two -all movements stopped- that I have lost my baking talents, then I snapped back to reality and realised how I've always depended on it without much thought. So yeah, never take my baking talents for granted. *nod nod*
And lately I've been 'chiong-ing' Cabal Online, which is a fantastic newly-released MMORPG.
Still is novice at it, my leveling is incredibly slow... T^T
And hear this, cake, I won't give up on you!!!
