Stop laughing - this is serious

My first attempt at a video. Thanks to Tracee for her co-operation in this one.
I speeded it up and added a filter to make it look like old film.

Enjoy.
Oh, and no llamas were harmed in the making of this film.

How's this for temptation.

This is a recipe for the Most Dangerous Chocolate Cake in the World.
I'm putting it here rather than just post the link because I discovered the other day that TAFE has blocked the Gather.com website.

I haven't tried this recipe yet because I'm trying to lose weight and so far I've resisted the temptation. How long this resolve will last remains to be seen.

MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG CAKE

1 Coffee Mug

4 tablespoons flour(that's plain flour, not self-rising)

4 tablespoons sugar

2 tablespoons baking cocoa

1 egg

3 tablespoons milk

3 tablespoons oil

3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)

Small splash of vanilla



Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well . Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.

Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again.

Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed!

Allow to cool a little, and tip out onto a plate if desired.

EAT! (this can serve 2 if you want to share!)



And why is this the most dangerous cake recipe in the world? Because now we are all only 5 minutes away from chocolate cake at any time of the day or night

Recipe Links Added

I've added some links to recipe websites that I've found useful. (See right)
Some of the recipes we've tried and can recommend are:
3 Spice Potatoes - a delicious Indian style recipe which are seriously yummo.

Lamb and Parsley Patties. We've made these a number of times, occasionally with slight variations. We have them with a Greek Salad, pita bread with low-fat yoghurt and parsley dressing. (ps. Mick and I aren't fans of Coriander leaves so we just add extra parsley.)

Or how about Rabbit stew in Beer with Dumplings? We've done this twice. Once fairly closely following the recipe with just a couple of minor variations to allow for not having ingredients . The dumpling recipe is particularly good for transplanting into other dishes (we did a turkey meatball thing and used this dumpling recipe)

Getting stuff done

I'll get back to my assignment after I'd added this cool you tube video... and checked my email, and updated my Facebook, and read my news groups, oh and mustn't forget to wash the lunch dishes...... you know how it goes.
