Pumpkin Bread for Halloween

Today, I made pumpkin bread before going to a party.

Here is the break down. With pictures!


In the beginning there was nothing...



I got Ashley helping me out this time.






Wet ingredients mixed and sugar mixed together






Dry ingredients



Mixing wet ingredients properly



The mixing of wet and dry






Ingredients in perfect harmony



Sitting in the pan. I only had one which made it really frustrating.



In the oven for a ridiculous 50 minutes plus some more because the oven sucks.



DONE



Admire that texture

My Life is Boring

Unlike some people, my life is not full of drama. Also, unlike emoinacloset, I probably won't be going out tonight even though it is Halloween. This is because I have three midterms next week. I've decided that Economics is my worst subject ever, although this should not be surprising since I didn't pass the AP Econ test in high school. I wonder why I ever thought Environmental Econ would be cool major.

In other news, the Sacramento Kings invited the Cal Band to play at their season opener, which is pretty cool.

I've also watched Ace of Cakes obsessively, and I feel like muffinman should aspire to be Chef Duff and make awesome cakes.

That's my quick update, muffinman.

PS:
1. Music: Wake Me Up Before You Go Go - Wham!
2. Video: I are cute kitten - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ZSbC09qgLI

That's all.

Nevermind

I was going to write a post, because emoinacloset and muffinman have been trying to force me out of my warm hermit hole (screw you, it's almost winter) since forever.

However, I realized that I could just shoot a video and upload that instead. It would take 10 seconds.

So, I'll be doing that sometime soon. I tried to shoot a video yesterday with Pinnacle Studio 12, but jesus.. my computer just will not run Pinnacle Studio faster than a snail's pace.

I'm going to download some other software.

p.s. Many of you are probably thinking, "Yeah, he says he's going to upload a video, but we probably won't see it for another thousand years. Lazy dumbass."

Well, you bitches are absolutely CORRECT!
See you in the afterlife.

People in glass houses should not throw stones FINAL PART

After the events of the comment war, I have decided that Michael has sufficiently embarrassed himself, Gloria and Ashley, so for this reason I am not going to respond to his letter. I think it is better to end this today, especially since I told Ashley that I would anyway.

So what happened this week and what did I learn?

A numbered list:

1) Lots of blog traffic was generated and possibly new readers added too. These series of posts have been the most read and most commented on and that just makes me smile. Emoinacloset and I have been scratching our heads over how to generate traffic and get our friends interested, and here comes the answer. Though I do not believe that Emoinacloset is a fan of this kind of traffic even though we used to do this stuff at ARC all the time.

2) Michael committed social suicide by snapping over some silly blog comments. Which surprised me and gave me a good laugh. I can tell this is going to become a running joke in the coffee group and other blog readers. What I learned from the limited interaction with Michael through the blog comments is that he is just a poor soul that has been bullied for "double digits" number of years and that we should not be surprised by his short fuse and propensity to become a "strong, testosterone-driven teenage male" and slap Gloria around. Just kidding, we all know that Gloria wears the pants in this relationship. On a more serious note, you can see here how making assumptions off second hand information can make an ass out of you.

3) This blog brings people together! Well for the most part anyway. People who normally just passively read or do not read at all are suddenly coming together, posting and choosing sides. Most surprisingly is that Mike, someone who I have not talked to in well over a year came out of nowhere to check up on me and catch up. Well Mike, I am glad you know what I am doing these days and I reciprocated the act with a quick check of your facebook and a chat with a mutual friend. I am glad that you have overcome your homophobia from high school and even embraced the gay lifestyle a bit. Our mutual friend tells me you have developed a fetish for tight jeans and a quick look at your profile picture reveals your new hobby of prancing around shirtless (Is that a run on? I am not very good at grammar and the sentence seems long). Surely you will not stay single for long with this kind of attitude and will soon have the chance to experience a "failed relationship" as well. I believe that coming into this fray to accompany Gloria is really scoring you some points. Dare I say that you are on the verge of stealing her away from Michael?

4) Katrina posts extremely witty and sharp comments. I wish I could see more of that wit when I see you in person. Of course not to be outdone, Kevin comes in at the right moment to break up the tension with his just plain ridiculous comments. I miss you two a lot.

5) We have all seriously embarrassed Ashley with how much this has escalated. Sorry Ashley, sometimes I escalate things till they get out of hand.
