    If you want to make cupcakes, it's dead simple. It's the SAME RECIPE!!! - just cooked for less time. (Just keep looking and testing, I would estimate between 12-2 mins cooking time. And obviously you can change the recipe by putting e.g. cocoa, strawberries, coffee in for different cakes. A butter icing is just butter and icing sugar mixed together, with whatever flavouring you feel like, or none.)

    Get yourself down to the £1 shop - they have loads of stuff - silicon cupcake cases, metal cupcake tins, but more importantly really fun glitter and all sorts of sprinkles and stuff for the top of cupcakes :D WaS will tell you, cos I put some cupcake stuff into her Christmas hamper (but they still had some left very recently.)
    You've just reminded me my ex bought me a cupcake maker

    I need to make some cupcakes!

    I can't do anything zombie related. I remember an ex took me to see evil dead 2 on one of our first dates.

    Crackpot, why on earth he thought we would enjoy that was beyond me.

    I can't do zombies, horror or anything that makes my over active imagination go into overdrive.

    Which is why I go and see kids cartoons when I go to the pictures.

    Not just those, but nothing that would keep me awake at night.

    I'm with you on this/ And that includes the kids cartoons at the pictures.

    Me too! I've become far less tolerant of horror stuff as I've got older, though maybe that's because the horror has got so much more horrifying!
    I can watch old-fashioned horror films, though, and things like League of Gentlemen and Inside No.9, but maybe that's because they're not really horror, but weird? I do 'weird' perfectly well!
    Anything bloodthirsty is verboten; I can't stand all the violence. I also can't stand things jumping out at you. It literally took me months to get over seeing 'The Woman in Black' at the cinema, and that was with my eyes shut during the jumpiest scenes, and it wasn't even a good film!


    Give me a good musical or comedy any day! There's enough in Life that's scary; I want to be cheered up and made to laugh! :rotfl:

    Lol, of course fairy cakes!

    I spent 3 hours clearing out and cleaning my room today. Feeling quite proud of the much cleaner and less cluttered result. And...I can see the floor again!!! I also swept, hoovered and mopped said floor. :D

    The scariest film I ever saw was called The Strangers. Nothing even really happened, it was just suspense. I literally had nightmares after seeing that film. I'm more of a musicals girl :)

    See everyone has been busy.

    Jut got up and not dressed. Yes I know.

    My diet is going well 5lb gain this week LOL!!! says she stuffing her face with a bag of sour cherry sweets :(

    God I hate my life. Wish I could be normal (well normal for me). I never seem to be able to get what I want when everyone else does. Maybe because I am not pushy enough. Who knows. Got a family who don't seem to care and only get a phone call when they want something :( apart from the people on here and my husband, no friends.

    Would love a bf but who the hell would want me. Have tried and it never works. Think I resigned to be on my own now.

    Sorry to be on a downer today when everyone seems to be having a good day. Might be because I going to end up on my own all this weekend. With only the 4 walls to talk to.

    Only good thing is that it seems all my runner beans are growing. Was a but worried as they where all out of date by about a year LOL

    Everyone take care.

    Yours


    Calley
