lemon butter cake

had the urge to bake since yesterday. but couldn't get all the ingredients yesterday so baked today! lemon essence was sooooo hard to find!

butter, margerine, caster sugar, eggs, lemon rind, lemon juice, lemon essence, flour, baking powder. batter. bake. lemon butter cake.

with an electronic mixer (? i think that's what it's called) everyone is a master pastry chef ;)

sometimes you feel bloated,

sometimes you don't;

life's not a bed of roses

it's a raft at sea.

calm days are bright days,

bad days are dark;

some days that figure-hugging top looks too big,

some days that loose-fitted t-shirt looks tight.

when days are bad

cry out loud,

laugh louder.

when you feel bloated

do the hula-hoop,

and feel yourself slimming down.

when you feel fine

pose before the mirror,

and laugh at your own bimbo-ness.

life's about rejoicing,

living in the moment.

i touch my bloated tummy, think about what i have written, and decided.

"i will eat another piece of cake"

and burn it all away later.

i miss u ♥
