3/3 thread - all welcome - no watermelons or people in the corner

[FrannyandZooey]

The suggested goals are:

EAT 3 PORTIONS OF CAKE EVERY DAY - if you don't usually eat much cake I would build up gradually or you could upset your digestion.

DO (AT LEAST) 3 MINUTES OF COMPLAINING EVERY DAY - can be whinging, moaning, or something more energetic. The plan is that the idea of doing 3 minutes is not too daunting, and having started you may well find you want to do more.

Springy, if you can scrape together even a small amount of chocolate, you can have chocolate cornflake cakes in a matter of minutes? What did you do with that big bar of Dairy Milk? Hmmmm????

Do you have any treacle springy? Syrup? Crunchy nut cornflake cakes sound just the ticket! Fortified with vitamins too... or would that exclude them?

at TF.

First complaint- I don't have any bloody cake. I would have cake over chocolate any day.

That's an excellent point, Ju. Where has that man hidden the Dairy Milk? (I'm scared to look because I'm fairly sure that I won't find it because he's eaten it. Does he not understand that I'm very pregnant & have cake-eating quotas to meet?!)

& yes, I think I do have syrup! I was thinking I may bake a cake, but I don't have eggs. Gah.

My new moan to add to this is that it's becoming apparent that I'm going to actually have to do a grocery shop again

I have eggs and carrots. I think I know what I'm going to have to make.

Springy if you can find that chocolate then you can make cornflake nests no eggs needed

ah well, Springers old bean, i have ordered mine online [smug] but as we are (sort-of) in the same county, I'll send you a packet of hobnobs down south...
I bear no grudge, even though you have clearly siphoned off all the sunshine intended for me.

Just noticed tigers rules. Does that mean if I make sickly sweet carrot cake its still too healthy?

Though if you do go shopping, get some mini-eggs to go in the cornflake nests.

Perhaps you could cancel out the carrots with extra frosting?

Yes, bronze, putting carrot in a cake is defeating the whole object.

How wrong would it be if I ambled down the road for no other reason than to buy enough white chocolate to make this cake? I have nowt better to do really today (well, aside from all that work stuff), and am quite obsessed with it. I want it and I want it now.

Ju, I already have Shredded Wheat sitting in my cupboard for future Easter Nest making - melted chocolate + the crushed up cereal + Mini Eggs. Mmmm. That's why I bought the big slab of chocolate in the first place. To be honest, I think this calls for a divorce.

& if that doesn't, the fact that he's allergic to white chocolate & I can't make Hassled's cake definitely does.

& Molly, it's becoming decidedly overcast here. I think I'm swapping you sunshine for hobnobs. I can live with that.

Mmmmm, num num num. I'd now like to complain that I don't have any white chocolate and I can't be doing with waddling to the shop again.

& Hassled, there'd be nothing wrong with going to get the chocolate for that cake. Cake baking is a difficult skill & it's important for any Good Woman to practice when possible. You owe it to your gender to make that cake by any means necessary.

Careful Springy - Shredded Wheat sounds awful healthy to me....I do feel that Crunchy Nut Cornflakes, or even Frosties, would be safer.

Complaints

1. DH doesn't put his clothes in the washing basket
2. There is too much stuff in this house
3. My tescodirect order is causing me hassle

Cake

Does chocolate count instead?

Complaints

I am leaking
I am in pain
I can not get out to buy cake

Cake

I have just finnished the cup cakes the boys made
I have eaten all the poppyseed crakers
I need more cake

I would liek to complain about the rules. I think the fact that it is cake overules the fact that it has carrot in it.
I dont have anythign else and I need cake

Go for the carrot cake! To hell with the rules. I ate the jaffa cakes whole.

LOL

Oh you are funny Franny

Can I join in?

On the 'cake' front:
I have eaten three chocolate chip cookies.
I am thinking about making a loaf of gingerbread.

On the complaints front:
I have a streaming cold and the multi-coloured snot also.
I am chilly.

muffins are underway
carrot cake will be started in a minute

I really hate having to make them though I just want them NOW

gingerbread is underway here.
I am so glad I found this thread to motivate me.

Don't you think homemade cake is too healthy? I had some absolutely rubbish Tesco carrot cake yesterday.
