Do you like cupcakes?

Do you like chocolate?

Want to make some in a flash?

Then I have a recipe for you!
( ⌒‿⌒)

☆ Chocolate spread cupcakes ☆

Ingredients:

60g flour / 60gram bloem

280g chocolate spread/ 280gram chocolade pasta

2 eggs / 2 eieren

Things you need:
☆ Bowl / Schaal

☆ Mixer 
☆ Microwave / Magnetron
☆ Paper liners / Cakevormpjes 

It's important to pick a chocolate spread you really like since the cupcake will taste alot like the spread (obviously!). Start by pre-heating the oven on 180 degrees. Then get a bowl. You then want to start with the chocolate spread skooping into the bowl. To make it easier with mixing (by hand), you can put the spread into the microwave to make it more fluid and therefore easier to mix. Just don't dip your finger into the microwaved chocolate spread, you will burn your finger!

Time to measure how much flour you will need!

Then you can place the flour in the same bowl, along with the eggs. 
Now doesn't that look delicious already? ヽ(○´ε｀○)ノ Mix this until it's a smooth mix!

Time to put the mix into the paper liners, and then it's off to the oven with them!

They have to be in the oven for 15 minutes.

And done! It's easy like that!

( ´・‿-)~♡ Bon appetit!

My love recently made a wonderfull cake, 'Hemelse marmercake'/'Heavenly marblecake'. It was our first time making it, and it turned out good. Not as high as on the box, but it tasted so yummy! It's a very light eating cake, and it contains a whole can of whipped cream, and tastes like chocolate (but not too much). Might make it for my birthday. I really liked this cake, so it was all gone in a flash. I do love myself getting some cake or anything else sweet  (｡◕‿◕｡)

Food, food, food~ ( ⌒▽⌒)

[2.1.2013]

First of all I want to say 'thank you' to all of my followers for reading my blog, and welcome some new followers ♥ 
I've now reached 101 followers :D When starting this blog I thought nobody would read it!

Some photo's from previous days ago.

My dear made 'oliebollen', which is traditional Dutch food, mainly eaten on New Year's Eve, or at funfairs. In English they are more commonly known as 'Dutch Doughnuts' or 'Dutchies'. Mainly it's just a big ball of dough, dropped in a deep fryer filled with hot oil. And they were very tasty, especially because it was the first time we made it ourselves. I always crave for these at such impossible times of the year, so whenever I see them being sold at funfaires I need to eat atleast one! ♥ Yummy!

And there are all the cards we have recieved, mostly chrsitmas cards, and also a few congratulation cards because of the moving. 34 christmas cards (after taking this photo, more arrived), and 4 moving cards in total. I feel so loved! Thank you everybody for exchanging christmas cards ♥ You are all sweethearts!

It's already feeling like home, now that we have hang a painting on the wall. I bought it atleast one year ago, but now it's the first time seeing it hang on the wall ♥ I truly love it! And in the evening we light up some candles. I like candles, they make the room look very cozy.

Shooting

Last weekend I had a photoshoot with a good friend of mine. His DA can be found here: *click*

So, I went there along with my partner. We had such a blast that day and were lucky with the weather.

It was really cold, but luckily the sun shined and it was dry.

We were planning to make some photo's of me as a guy in regular clothing, and some while wearing lolita. Between these shoots we also had a break to warm up. I had a nice warm cup of hot chocolate with cream, and some currywurst and fries (since we were in Germany). After that I changed clothes and it was back to business! We were busy for 8 hours that day, and then went back to the Netherlands and ate some more fries xD Gosh, we were all so very, very tired after that day!

Here are some photo's I made during our break, since I also brought my camera along:

And these photo's I made are also posted on my DeviantArt:

Of course I made many more photo's, but I will post them later in a other post.

I will also show you some of the results of the photoshoot later as well!
I have seen them and I'm pleased with the result, so I can't wait to post them, and hopefully you all like them as much as I do ♥

Black and Blue

This is just a simple outfit from a few days ago. I wore this at a parents information evening, for my other job. Since I didn't know what to wear for such thing, I just went for a very simple look. And yay for self-timer!

Outfit Rundown

Vest - H&M

Sweater - The Sting

Pants - H&M

Shoes - Doc. Martens

And completely off topic, but I love sweets, so I got myself some donuts ♥ Though I only ate the pink one, as my partner ate the rest of them! *nomnomnom*

Food!

I always love looking at nice food photo's, so I will post a few ones of my own ♥

I love to cook, and especially to eat it afterwards haha!

Lunch: Instant noodles, with paprica, carrot and chinese cabbage

 Dinner: Noodles with carrot, paprica, green beans, chinese cabbage and bean sprouts

Ikea Meet-up

I feel so lazy to make a post! I still have some photo's from a while ago!

I bought some nice things I would like to show ♥

Me and two other lolita friends went to Ikea. We just love those Swedish meatballs!

After that we went the city for a bit.

I really liked this bag for a while, but I don't like spending too much money. So, now there was a sale at H&M, and I got it for a good price now. Maybe it can also be used in combination with a steampunk outfit?

And this necklace..it's perfect! I found it at the men's department of H&M, being the last one there. I just couldn't help myself of buying it. I love skulls ♥

And what can I say? Blue is my favourite color..So it was needed to own it ♥

And I already have worn it..It fits me perfectly!

Purchases

Yesterday I bought some fabrics from a friend.

All flowers..so it's more classic..♥ I'm starting to like floral prints more..

And then she gave me a plastic Baby bag for it. Nice, I collect these bags ^^

I always save those when I got them.

The second and third piece of fabric is very small, and more to make something for one of my dolls. A nice skirt or dress. The black fabric is for lining. 

I got these expensive fabrics for a good price.

I also bought a skirt from a friend, and I really like it ♥

It's a nice black sheer skirt, from Dear Celine. 

It was a good price and it looks good. I really needed a black (corset)skirt in my life.

I can't wait to wear it!

I went to the city today with my boyfriend, because I needed to buy new socks.

But, we bought a bit more. And when I got home I found the package from my skirt.

Such a nice surprise ♥

I bought Hello Kitty socks! But also some plain ones.

A dvd of the  'Come fly with me' serie and a chocolate letter from the upcoming St. Nicolas event (for children). I love white chocolate. 

And my boyfriend needed to buy it for me, since he ate my last one!

As for lunch we got a big box of hot wings from the KFC.

It was so much and we weren't hungry at all, so we took it with us :p

And we ate the rest at home haha...

Tomorrow is the bjd meet-up. 

I'm getting a bit nervous, but atleast I know a few people.

Not sure what to wear though!

Also not sure if I will update my blog tomorrow, so you all have to do it with this update..

So many meet-ups and other things are coming this upcoming month.

I'm really looking forward to it.

Like a nice movie evening with some friends, lolita meet-ups, a photoshoot, christmas and me and my boyfriends 5th year anniversary ♥

What are your plans for upcoming month? ^^

Sweetness

Gosh I love food..especially desserts!

My guilty pleasure are strawberries. So sweet and tasty~♥

I love sweets and sugar, so I also put some sugar and whipped cream  on top of my strawberries.

And this time I also used chocolate sauce..So yummy!

What is your favourite dessert?

A couple of days ago I went to the vet, for a check-up on my gerbils.

Because one of them has lost a bit of weight, so I got worried.

But, the doctor said they were really healthy, and they never saw such tame gerbils!

Such good news! The reason why one of my gerbils lost weight could be from changing their food.

So, he gave me some advice, to measure how much they weight every once a week.

If one of them lose alot of weight I need to come back.

So, I will pay even more attention to them to see if there are any changes.

So far so good though!

Mini

Melon icecream!

Yesterday I met up with a friend of mine~♥

I had lend her pretty Starry Night Theater, that I (unfortunantly) had to bring back :p

It was pretty crowded where we had met, because there was some kind of Spanish festival.

Since we were hungry, we decideded we wanted to eat at a Japanese restaurant, but it was closed. So, we went for Chinese instead.
Too bad I didn't made a picture of our food, it was pretty much.

Afterwards we went to the ice saloon, and we each had 5 balls of melon flavoured ice.

It was alot of ice, but we managed to eat it all.

I decided to wear normal clothing, and I'm glad I did.
Because there were lots of drunk men.

And that's really terrible here, if you wear lolita.
Well, it's always terrbile, no matter where you are.
