eat cake.

don't buy anything from here. ok, well more specifically don't buy this. you'll never get it. never, ever. i ordered mine back in early november. the backorder date has changed 8 times. it is currently at march 19th (yesterday it was march 5th). their customer service has my account flagged to designate me as a foul language customer. but seriously, there is more to it, it is a long story and believe you me if things weren't so darn complicated i would LOVE to just cancel the order. just don't buy it ok? they always say in retail that an unhappy customer is bound to spread the word more than a satisfied one. case in point.

another unhappy incident. while having my dear friend over for lunch today a certain etsy shop was updated with loads of sock yarn goodness. by the time i checked? almost all sold out. crap.

so what is a girl to do with all this disappointment in her life? eat chocolate.
***update 2/16 - a lot of people are stopping by here from not martha looking for the cake below. i didn't mean to leave you all in the dark over it's origins, so you can get the recipe here. i got mine from the mag (real simple) but can't remember the issue it was from.



hot chocolate cakes. ever had those choco cakes with pudding in the center? that is what this is, but you bake them in teacups and add some marshmallows for drama. frickin yummy and just enough sugar to help me muster past the bad vibes going on around here.

painting and office stuff still demands my time. knitting progress is slow (but if i had caught the etsy shop on time, i bet i would have been more motivated to get knitting!!).
