I've recreated the Entenmann's Devil's Food Cake.I've been trying to do this for years with a bunch of different marshmallow frosting recipes.The frosting was always a little off.Too fluffy and light and the flavor just wasn't there. Swiss merengue buttercream.Not traditional marshmallow frosting.

I got my nose pierced a couple of months after I turned 40. I'd always wanted a nose stud and now, more than a year later, I still smile every time I see it in a photo, even if I hate the photo itself. Case in point.

My new hair isn't quite what I wanted it to be. But apparently I have a great sense of style, according to one of the best dresses women I have ever seen, so you win some you lose some.

Last month when I was in Brighton they had a lovely exhibit at the museum with a lot of ABBA stuff from their Eurovision win. Or recreations of their stuff.

I haven't seen Flow because I have a black cat that almost died when he was a kitten and I just can't take a black cat in danger. This boy has seen some shit.

I know I'm in my 40s because I got myself a couch for my birthday and I'm very excited about it. The inspectors have deemed it acceptable.

Sometimes I'm a dinosaur. I bought this on a whim and talked with my therapist about how happy it made me. She suggested that I wear it when I'm feeling sad because you can't feel sad when you're a dinosaur. It works.
