So my older sister's birthday is coming up and for some bizarre reason I offered to make her a cake. I can't cook, okay? I burn everything I try to cook. So why the "eff" did I offer to cook a cake from scratch?!
Anyways, I did the shopping - I was almost going to buy a ready made cake and tell her I'd made it. Or at least buy some ready-made cake mix I just had to add water to - but no, I was brave and decided to do it al properly. £20 on ingredients later and I was in the kitchen making the cake.
And I have a question to ask those who are regulars with the cake-making lifestyle. How the shit can you do it?! I had no electric wisk or nothing, so my right arm hurts more than ever. I swear I don't need to do any weights for another few months and I probably lost about a stone whisking it all together.
But several hours later and it was done. I'm pleased with it; it looks fab, but we've yet to taste it. If I'm not on after today you know I've killed myself and the rest of my family with the Cake From Hell.
One that just happened to give me a bit more defenition to my biceps in the meantime ;)
