Chocolaty marshmallow rice puffies

I do really enjoy food.
There is nothing I enjoy more than to serve up a meal made with love.  And I enjoy eating it.
I’ll try to take a picture of all the things I make and post them… if only my image thingie would work, that is…
But I will get around to it.

So yes; my first recipe is Chocolaty Marshmallow Rice Puffies.
Kinda like Rice Crispy Treats, but made MY way… And it’s really hard to come by Rice Crispies here…

Get started:

Nobs of butter… like a few tablespoons…
4 cups of mini marshmallows
6 cups of puffy rice (here you can use rice crispies, if you want to….)
100 grams of chocolate. I used 27% cocoa in mine, you can use whatever you want to.

Do as follows:

Melt the butter in a saucepan and add the marshmallows. Wait till its all melted before adding the chocolate and wait again till the chocolate is melted before removing from heat and adding the puffy rice. Stir till everything is well coated and put it in a bread tin (I suggest that you put a little oil in the tin, spear it all over and then put some clingfilm over it and push it well into the corners. The oil will make the clingfilm stick better and it’ll be easier to get the puffies out). Let it cool before turning it out and cutting into squares.
If you want you can skip the whole putting the chocolate IN the mix and just coat the squares with the chocolate after you’ve squared them.

I hope you will enjoy them as much as I do.

Pih… so bored….

Mood: Soooo bored
Listening to: Sweeney Todd – A little priest  *sings*

*pretends to be dancing gingerly around* THEN WHO ARE WE TO DENY IT IN HEEEERE!!! (with cool english accent)

Yes, I am so very very bored. Not that I listen to Sweeney Todd only when I’m bored… it’s like the means to my unboredness…because I find really pleasure in listening to it. Especially the accents. They are the best. My problem is.. my english is kinda posh… but I try to unposh it.

And I’m so tired. Woke up at a little after 4am… sweating my eyeballs out… so I opened the door, went back to bed and couldn’t sleep. So I went to the toilet..went back to bed… still couldn’t sleep. At 4:45 am Jan woke up and went to work.. and right after he left I found out he forgot his cellphone because it was calling out to him, hoping to wake him up.. So after it had been calling three or four times I went down and threw a few pillows over it so I wouldn’t hear it… Went back to bed and sleep was nowhere to be found, so I read. Around 6am I finally fell back to sleep. Woke up at 7:45 am, took my pill and went back to sleep… Woke up again a little after 9 am…

“I’ll come again when you have judge on the menue *growl*”

So yeah… it’s been a long day…
AND one of the horses in one of the paddocs next to our house got out… ran about for a bit, sparred with another horse and then ran up to the garden belonging to the jail… and from there onto the road… and that’s the last I saw of it…
I’m pretty sure they found it, tho… they are good at their job, them people.. them hooorse people…

And then there’s the online movie thingie…
G, the movie putter-upper, has been putting up loads of movies lately, and I’ve had visitors and stuff… Well, my dad, but its still visit.. So now I’m finally caught up… and last weekend he put up movies even when he had said he wouldn’t… AND NOW!!! THIS weekend… no movie… typical… especially when I need it. Your fault, G… I’m bored.. I needed a movie… But it must be said that he is great! He found one of the movies I wanted to see… so I felt pretty special when he did that.. lol. Haven’t seen “Maximum Overdrive” in AAAAAAAGES… and poof… there is was…
The only thing I remembered from it was a green fogmist thing and a truck with a green clownface….
I had even forgotten that Emilio Estevez was in it…

“And are you beautiful and pale with yellow hair, like her…. blah… JOHAAAAAAAAANNNNAAAAAAAAAAAAAA~~~~”

Oh… and the scarf… I’m still working on it.  I just think I need a little more yarn and then I’m done…
Contemplating weather to get 4 or 5 balls of yarn each of the colours. I can always sell it back to the yarn lady..
And I got some other yarn I can sell back… I just hope I gots the reciept… heh… *sweats*
And its getting so long… last I tried it on it went from the floor, around my neck, down to my thighs and over my shoulder again… and like midway down my waist…
One thing is for sure… I won’t be cold this coming winter XD
I’ll be all cool and wrapped up like a mummy…

OOOH!!! Another new thing…
I bought a new shampoo and conditionar… schwazcopf (sp?) and some other person… it’s called Syoss…
I got the volume one… and my GOD!!!! It smells heavenly <3 and yeah… so far my hair is more poofy… but it might be my imagination… idk. It smells great and it works… like.. make my hair all clean, and that’s always a plus in a shampoo, yeah?

But now I can see the minute hand… on the digital clock on my computer ( -_- ) is 11 past 10.. which means… I can finally go to bed =D
Yes, I know it’s early, but I play Animal Crossing and then read, so time passes like poof… and when I finally do fall asleep it’s almost like midnight… What can I say.. I love my bed :3
And I need to brush my teef and stuff. So that takes a little time too… and well… I want to go to bed… Starting to freeze my toes off…

Anyways… I’m sure I’ll write again when I’m bored or have something else to write/bitch about… :3

Night night

Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince, hopefully not gonna be pinged silly….

Mood: Splendid
Listening to: …well…. Die Hard on TV….

Yeah, I just got back from seeing Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince…
To be honest, it was a good movie… although, of course, WB couldn’t help but change things… Oh, and before I go on… SPOLER ALERT!!!!!!

WB cockup… They did actually do a good job of following the book…. but… the Weasly house… WHY, and I do mean WHYYYYYYY did they blow the house up? It had NO meaning… There was absolutely NO point to it what so ever!!!!
My guess is that they had a period in the movie filled with no action time and decided “Meh, boring here… we need action… let’s burn the house down…” “Yeah, that’ll work…”
No, it doesn’t… it’s just annoying… This means that the house will either be miraculously restored for the next movie when the wedding happens OR the Weasley’s move somewhere without a forwarding adress..
I think that WB didn’t think about how Ron will be able to go on the advanture thingie with Harry… He’s supposed to be home from school.. having Dragon Pox or something… but he tought the house moaning spirit thingie to imirate him or whatever… if the house has been burned to the ground, the spirit thingie is gone too…
Anyways…
I guess I’m being way to chritical… this is the wizarding world we are speaking of, after all… lol.. anything can happen..

The best part, by far, to me, was when Ron was all lovestruck… Ruphert Grint is a very underastimated actor… He is good…

But now I am off to bed… Animal Crossing can’t play itself, you know…
Oh, excitement there too… I caught every bug there is in town not too long ago… I was very happy… lol
