Desert time!!

Hey guys!! Today was an awesome day!! I hope it was for you too!!
Well it didn't start off well because I completely forgot about my french test I had today as I was too busy stressing about my science test I had yesterday... oops... But it went okay I think.. It was hard but that's what you expect when you remember the morning of the test and try to study quickly before school.. I mean I know I passed, but it wont be top marks.. But doesn't matter its only one test.
Our teacher still hasn't put up the volleyball teams!!! grrr!! I want to know!!!
Oh and we got our static image results back today as well and I got an E!!! YAY!! and not only that it was the top of class too!! And our teacher only gave out 4 E's in our class as well, most people got A's(achieved,just..)... So an excellence I am really happy about. And it was the first time my teacher EVER complemented my work, and said she was really impressed by it and she showed it at the staff meeting (over 100 teachers, I know our school is huge!) and it is the first piece of student work she is putting on the wall!! Haha super happy!! I didn't even think it was that good but everyone else thought it was so yay!

And I am still worried about my friend... I hope she is okay!!! What could she of done that her parents want to call the police?? She is soo innocent!! She would never do drugs or anything like that, She just wouldn't, and even if it was, doing that wouldn't make all your friends hate you and your boyfriend dump you!! Would it... I am soo worried!!

For afternoon tea I was hungry so I decided to have a can of salmon!! Haha I completely forgot how disgusting it looks!! But it tastes sooo good so I am not complaining.
 Haha...

For desert tonight I deiced to try out this new recipe... Its done in the slow cooker and called chocolate custard jelly. So from how much of the liquid I tasted before I added the eggs it tasted really good!! So hopefully they will be nice!!
 The bad thing is they have to cook for 2 1/2 to 3 1/2 hours!! I am so impatient I cant wait that long!!!
 Oh and meet Tick, he is my little kitchen timer I got last year for Christmas!! He is sooo cute!!


Anyway have a nice afternoon!!
XOXO :)

Good night guys

Have a good night and remember tomorrow is a new day a fresh start a chance to do the right thing!

Fish was really nice and I also had a carrot, hummus and ten black olives (yeah I thinking went overboard with the olives...) for my snack after tea along with my new ginger kiss tea, it's really nice doesn't really taste like ginger kisses but nice a ll the same. I think I ate too much because now I just fell sick and have a giant headache, and I have no cramps at the moment but it's like its crisped all day and now it just aches and feels strained :( the ups of being a girl...

So good night hope you are well. I will always be here for you and I love you very much
Have a good night :)

...

Today has not been a great day. I have had the worst cramps in the world all day, I woke up at 4am with them and couldn't get back to sleep so I'm tired too, they were okay by second period but came back at fifth and I still have them now :( Ugghh the ones that are so painful you feel the pain round your back and down you legs and feel sick :( that's me every month. They got so bad that I have had to start taking birth control tablets every month, not that I'm planning to have s*x anytime soon!! I really don't think they make a difference though but apparently they take three months to start working so only one more month to go! Hopefully they do work because it hurts soo much! :(

After school my mum took us for hair cuts, not that I want to cut my hair any shorter so I just got it trimmed and my fringe cut. My two brothers got there's done too, I love watching R have his den because it's always long when we go so when they use the buzzy thing to trim the sides he always gets a bowl cut for about two minutes and it's hairlious! But they then trim the top and it looks fine again! Haha it's great though...

My parents are toughing up on my fortisips they have relised I haven't been having them so now they are super strict in them. I hate them so much though, they taste disgusting and make me gag and because they are so high in calories, protein and heaps of other stuff they always make me feel sick and dizzy and give me headaches after, but apparently that's normal for people who don't eat enough. :(

Anyway we are having fish for tea, yay!! I love fish so much (that doesn't mean you have to like fish as well or eat it, it's your choice, your body!) we buy it from this special place and they put it in an oven bag with your choice of sauce, we normally have Thai sweet chilli but they didn't have that one today so mum got a coconut and spices one and that sounds really nice too, so can't wait to try it!

Now eating my yummy snack before tea, about ten M 'n' M's! Haha,  I love chocolate!! The new raspberry m'n'm's have come out as well and I can't wait to try them too oh and the vanilla milkshake ones! Haha we always get the new flavours in NZ way after them come out over seas, in Australia they have pretzel ones and they are really nice but I haven't been able to find them in NZ, I know they already had the raspberry ones out in Australia at the end of last year when we went but they have only come in NZ now!! Haha oh well...

Yay time for fish and rice, and veges of course!! Yum, it smells really good!!

Have a nice dinner too, or whatever meal you are having now where ever in the world you are! Stay calm and just try to enjoy it, it will he okay! And if it is really greasy or full of butter etc. hey one meal won't make any difference to your weight so Who Cares?! Enjoy it, it will taste great!! Unlessn it is a fortisip... In that case I feel your pain!! Have a good time :)

Iced banana cupcakes :) and recipe...

Yay my cupcakes are all done and iced!! I took these pics yeaterday and today there is only now three left!! well our visters had one each so that is 8 gone, and I had two last night (Iknow I know but they are just soooo good!) and one in my lunch today. But ya I will have to make some more soon!!






Recipe from: X


Ingredients



Muffins
2 cups self-raising flour
1/2 cup Chelsea Caster Sugar
1/2 tsp salt
100g butter
1 cup milk
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 cup (2 or 3) mashed bananas
Chocolate Icing
1 Tbsp softened butter (optional)
1 1/2 cups of Chelsea Chocolate Icing Sugar
Hot water
Optional - Extra sliced bananas to decorate.
Method

Turn the oven to 220°C. Stir the flour, Caster sugar and salt together with a fork.
Melt the butter, remove from the heat, add the milk, egg and vanilla and beat well with a fork.
Mash and measure the bananas. Stir them into the liquid mixture and mix well. Add to the dry mixture and fold everything together carefully until all the flour is dampened; stop before the mixture is smooth.
Line a cupcake tray with paper cupcake cases. Spoon mixture into the cases and bake for 12-15 minutes or until they spring back when pressed in the centre. Cool on a wire rack.
When cool, decorate with chocolate Icing and top with banana slices (optional).
Chocolate Icing
Add butter to icing sugar. Add enough hot water to combine when mixed.

I do recommend these they are very easy and so good!
Have a good night!!


Later :)

Well Jenna did like the chocolate icing but turns out she cant eat the carrots or celery because of her braces!! Even though she ate them last week and her sister eats them with braces, oh well she is too hard to please! They also have a Korean home-stay living with them at the moment so I met her as well, I have no idea how to spell her name but it starts with a J...
Anyway this is what I made...
Yum this is what I really wanted to eat, whether the others did, probably not..
 Oh and I made a smoothie as well to drink made out of 2 bananas, 2 yogurts, berries and milk!! (it's okay there was 6 of us in total!!)





Today wasnt as bad, usually when they come over I am bored to death but today was kind fun. We ended up on the trampoline kicking balls around and listening to Jennas and R's very bad taste in music!! How many times did we listen to anaconda by Nicki Manege and Problem by Arianda Grande?? Way too many times (sorry if you like them, I don't mind them but like the by the third time they are played in a row ughh...)
Anyway, in PE after the test that only took about 10 minutes we played with the skipping ropes!! Haha, I felt little again!! And I did double dutch for the first time and it turns out I am pretty good at it! It was fun but I jumped so much I still have a headache!

I ended up walking to school by myself today, my friend wouldnt reply to me, hopefully I havent done or said something bad to her!! I feel all horrible and anxious about it :/ Oh well I will see her in maths tomorrow and I can find out then...

Off the ballet later, looking forward to that! Only thing is because our normal teacher is away we have relivers and the one on Mondays is really mean and she hates the way I hold my arms even though every other teacher thinks they are fine!!

I hope your day went okay (haha rhymes sorry..)(i'm in a happy mood...) If not, I am sorry and it will get better soon, it may not seen even possible now but it does trust me and I will always be here for you! And feel free to keep emailing me, It's no problem infact I like helping!! :) :) And if your day was good, Go you!! well done!! See you guys later!!

Banana cupcakes :)

I did decide to make banana cupcakes after all, yay I am so craving them right now!! They just have to cool and then I can ice them. The recipe I used was meant to make 12 but it actually made 20 so happy girl :) I think I will ice half of them with lemon and the other chocolate, I love lemon icing on banana cupcakes but Jenna and my brother R doesnt so the other half will be chocolate, hopefully J likes chocolate otherwise I really dont care! she can just scrap it off!! 
So here they are:



Pictures with icing later!!!
And now the house smells all yummy!! so happy!!

Good Morning :)

Morning all hope you had a nice sleep :) new day new start, forget everything bad that happened yesterday, remember the good things :)
Nothing very exciting happening today... I had two pieces of toast, a coffee (decaf of course!) and a banana :) yum
Later we are going out to this new cafe that just opened (there are always new things opening or reopening after the earthquake!!) as my Mum thinks it looks really good. Then probably going out to rebel sport (sport shop) for my brothers soccer boots and maybe I can finally get some knee pads for volleyball as the season is starting next term again, YAY love volleyball so fun!! We have been looking for knee pads for about a year now and no where has them or if they do we found one pair but they were 60 dollars which is waaayyy to expensive! My knees are always grazed in volleyball season, I don't mind it, well it hurts when you dive on grazed knees... but my parents think it looks terrible like I am always in fights as my arms are usually bruised as well!!! haha....
I am going to do some baking this afternoon, banana choc chip cupcakes I think, as I found this pic now I am craving them...
And our Mums friends and daughters are coming over tomorrow for afternoon tea and we have to have something, I want to put lemon icing on them but Jenna one of her daughters hates lemon as well as a lot of things, she is so fussy and will throw a fit if I do so I might just leave icing off one for her, but then she will probably cry as she is the only one without icing... Cant please her!!

I cant wait until tennis season starts again!!! Yay, can you tell I am a summer sport girl!! I really want to go down to the courts later on but I am having trouble persuading someone to come with me, I cant play by myself!!

So it sounds like a good day today, hope I haven't just jinxed myself!! Haha.Hope you have a great day too!! :)

Oh and I have updated the last 5 or so posts (the ones with links) and added more pics as well if you want to go back and see them, yay more pics!!

Home at last :)

Yay back at home again after the party. I loved the party but I am always so tired afterward and well it's 10:30pm!! Sophie didn't end up coming which is sad but I will give her her present at school on Monday. When everyone arrived we played the chocolate game where you have to roll the dice and when you get a six you have to pit on a scarf, hat, gloves and a mask and cut up the chocolate with a knife and fork and eat as much as you can until the next person rolls a six. Lucky I only rolled a six once and only got,one piece! I was fine about eating the chocolate but felt really dizzy and sick so I suppose that was my body saying don't eat the chocolate! Which is wrong and unhappy that my body still does that! Next we did apple bobbing, well mini chocolate bar bobbing which was interesting and very hard and the water was freezing! We watched the internship after then had tea which was pizza (only had one slice...), hamburger sliders (really tiny hamburgers had 1), garlic bread (had two small bits, would of only had one if I had relised how much butter had been put on them!), these mini hotdog thing with cheese and wrapped in pastry (still hate pastry it is soo gross even the French pastrys and crosants and chocolate ones, I use to like them not I can't stand them, even if I see someone else eating them it just makes me cringe. But that doesn't mean because I don't like them you can't eat them if you like them go for it!!) and mini baked chicken nuggets! All was very nice but now I think of it I probably didn't eat enough for a whole meal... I definitely ate the least there, which I am going to change! How did you go with your 'scary' foods? Well I hope! :) we then watched confishens of a shopaholic which was good and ate cake and lollies. Nne of which was gluten free and my stomach is already beginning to cramp :( it will be worse in the morning, not looking forward to it, regret eating it now, but I couldn't not eat dinner, that would just start me off in my old bad habits again! And I don't want to lose anymore weight!
And that was it with lots of laughing and talking! It was fun but to be honest I am really glad to be back at home in my bed curled up with my cat and fifty something teddybears! Don't ask I know it's babyish but it helps with my anxiety. And anything to help it go away and lessen it is worth it!! And I love them, had them all since I was born! Haha now sounding like I am five! Oh well...

Have a good night, sleep well and get ready for a nice freash start tomorrow!! Xoxo :)

Party

Off to the party soon, so I will see you later, this is what I got my friends, I hope they like it!
1
These jars took me ages but they look cool
2 chocolate
Bookmarks
Window chalk
The cards I made
 I am really nervous right now, I know I shouldn't be, it's just with my best friends!! I think we are having pizza for tea... Not sure how I feel about that :/ but I will have to eat some. I will just try to have lots of the other stuff instead like popcorn maybe chips etc. And I will have to have cake as well. Still not sure of Sophie is actually coming, even though it is her party because she has a cold! Come on a cold, I have had a cold pretty much all winter, because I'm not at a proper weight so my immune system is terrible at the moment! Another reason to recover! But yeah hopefully she does come! It is her party along with Jess. It is from 4:30-9:30 so I won't have another post unil much later sorry.
Hopefully I will have lots of fun!

Have a good night! And tonight I dare you to try one of your 'bad or scary' foods tonight and keep it down, I will be... And remember there is no such thing as a unhealthy or bad food! And having it once or twice will NOT make you gain weight at all, just like eating a salad won't make you lose weight. So go on try it I believe you can do it!! Good luck :) xoxo
