So....

Hi Everyone!

I know I kinda dropped off the face of the earth, but a lot has happened. Mentally and emotionally. Have been in and out of the crazy bin while they are regulating my meds. I have been hating everything equally. And then my kitchen broke and I t couldn't cook for sanity. And then both my computers broke and I couldn't blog about anything, lol. But I used to be a person, a person who sailed through life not looking down... not looking for the wires that would trip me, not seeing the foliage I would fall into, never knowing if it would break my fall or send three wooden spikes through my heart. - However...

Speaking of hearts.. ! <3 <3 - I just found out some amazing news a few months ago.. ! I have a sister! And she is now the middle child, and I have a sister for the FIRST TIME EVER. I can now do all those things labeled "sister"... cards....and shares... : )  Blood related and everything, her last name (originally) matched mine. She emailed me which was so courageous and I am really thankful and blessed every day that I know she is in this world. She was EXACTLY what our shared Mother wanted. She's smart... like IVY LEAGUE smart, and she's a nervball like me, and she looks just like our shared Mother (which is disconcerting at times, but I never tire of it). It's like having a piece of my Mother back. Knowing my family is now the most WHOLE it can be. Even if we are scattered across the entire side of a country. Interesting to note tho - we're all on the same side, including my Brother. Having her, or just knowing she's there I know is a gift from above. Knowing there is someone who trips around like I do, who has some of the same mannerisms, speech, and we're both WRITERS. Like we were separated from birth or something... She's a writer tho who gets paid to write. I'll get paid.... eventually. But who cares about money when you have a new family member. Especially when my side of the family is having such LOW numbers. Anyway, I meant to write about, Little Chicken a long time ago but words didn't and still don't seem to sum it up. It's an awesome thing knowing that me and Rivers aren't alone in the world. That MOM still lives in all of us.

This week has been crazy on a supernatural Mom level. The house is  SMATTERED COVERED in Red Lipstick and I keep dropping everything. Mercury is in retrograde, however I feel Mom's presence. I'm moving which is REALLY hard. Me and change deal with each other like a fucking quarter glued to the floor. But, I think Mom's cluttery, loud, inappropriate (like the time she told my Brother at our great-grandfather's funeral that passing on for him (GGF) was a great journey because he was now "Flying around Heaven with his massive ears.... ") <~~~~ True story, Little Chicken.... right at his casket....! But I digress.... Mom has really made her presence known this week and I appreciate every bit of it. In a small way I don't feel so lost, forlorn, forgotten and abandoned. Of course, death isn't like your own business.... You don't choose your own hours...

Speaking of the supernatural again, I have started working as an Empath/Tarot Reader on a part time basis. I love helping people, it's in my blood - Little Chicken's blood - and River's blood whether it's teaching, being a spiritual advisor or putting someone's carburetor back together. We like to help...
(Pictures - Me, Little Chicken (new sister) and Rivers (brother, with... yes... that is Taylor Switft) Lol.. We are such a family now!



So there is an update... If she gives the okay and River's also.... I will post our pics! (but that one is me of course... I think I have my own permission...)

Thanks for listening, the support from this blog has been amazing to me in such hard times.

Me.

"Vanilla Heart-Attack Shaped Cake"

Eat at Your own Risk! (lol) Yummo! I really can't stop gushing about this cake, ya'll. Literally... they had to keep it away from me so I wouldn't sleep eat it, and give myself a heart attack from eating it. And, by the way - every piece was worth every palpitation. (don't worry, I only got about two pieces of this cake - it was so good everyone else wanted some, haha) Alrighty - Let's get to it..  First, get your ingredients together and preheat your oven to 350 degrees.  Then whisk your dry ingredients together. This takes place of actually having to buy cake flour. It's a short cut I use, but you can purchase cake flour if you want to, it's your life - however this saves you a bundle of time without having to purchase the flour and gives you a discount plus an even texture throughout the cake.  Start getting the wet ingredients together. Eggs, Sugar, Butter, Vanilla, & Crisco... YES - another recipe with Crisco... ...

"Ain't Nobody Got Time For That" Dark Chocolate Buttermilk Cupcakes

"Ain't Nobody Got Time For That" Dark Chocolate Buttermilk Cupcakes My friend, L and I are the queens of life hacks, and we're always looking for deals, shortcuts, and don't give a shit time savers. She is the queen of coupons and I'm addicted to food shopping, lol. So the other day when I was out marketing (marketing, tee hee) I saw some boxes of these Dark Chocolate Cake Mixes marked off to .50 cents, that's right ya'll - FIDDY CENTS! So of course I grabbed about four boxes and went along my merry way.  I don't usually go for boxed cake mix as my faithful kitchen assistant, Kitty Ears, and I sell authentic, all natural cakes and we're foodie snobs who frown upon such things, but sometimes you want a cupcake and you'll be damned if you're gonna spend five hours in the kitchen whipping up an organic cake with chocolate ganache... I mean... come the fuck on... "Ain't Nobody Got Time For That" every day. Recipe...
