Good Friday to you all, and welcome to Friday Flip Offs - the time of the week to get all my stresses out into the virtual world so i can enjoy my weekend. Proudly brough to you by Gigi at KludgyMom.
To the rain - i know that we need you, that farmers you need you for their crops, that you need to fill up our dams so we have drink water blah, blah, blah... but i want a bit of sunshine. I want to take Flynn out for a walk and to let him play on a blanket on the grass. Its been raining and cold and dreary for 3 days now, and its forecast for at least another 2 days more. My Australian summer-time-girl heart just cant bear it much more. Take your grey clouds and FLIP OFF!
To the kids on " World Strictest Parents " - grow.the fork.up. Seriously. I watch this show ( you know, now that " Masterchef " is over ) mainly so i can marvel at how bad your behaviour is and so that i can yell at you via the tv. Maybe if your parents and had yelled at you a bit more, or disciplined you properly at some point, you wouldnt be such idiots. I kind of feel bad for your parents because they put up with you, but i kind of dont because clearly you are a monster of their own making. ( And yes, before anyone points it out, thats kind of judgemental. Probably also very much true in 95% of cases ). Get over yourselves and learn some respect or FLIP OFF!
To the rocky road slice i made on Tuesday - you aren't exactly a fail. I followed the recipe, you turned out fine, Mick loves you. However - I am not a fan of your biscuit base. I was so looking forward to a yummy, scrummy, marshmallowy, chocolatey, chewy slice to snack on over a few days and what i got was a marshmallowy, chocolately slice with a crunchy base. Crunchy - its just not my thing ( at least not with a rocky road topping ). Your whole crunchy biscuit thing killed it for me. I would much rather you with a brownie base. So, unless you can magically turn chewy in my fridge overnight, either disappear into Micks lunchbox or just FLIP OFF!
Thats it this week. All pretty trivial, which i suppose means i had a good week.... enjoy!

I hate it when something turns out not exactly wrong but just not right! It sounds like something I'd like, I love a biscuity base!
ReplyDeletethose kids on the world's stirctest parents are lik birth control. they are horrible! lol! good list! thanks for visiting my Flip off!
ReplyDeleteI get so sad when I'm all excited for a dessert and it doesn't turn out the way I want it to.
ReplyDeleteOf course, my butt thanks me.
if it turns chewy let me know because I could use a piece ! :P
ReplyDeleteAnd nope I don't want him to crawl because I am just not ready for him to grow up anymore. lol I want him to stay little and immobile! No just kidding I really would like him to crawl but at the same time I don't Bitter sweet this growing up thing.
I hate when you go through the trouble to bake something and it doesn't come out like you were hoping. Usually I give it away while grumbling my disappointment. Just had that happen with a whole pan of muffins, so disappointed!
ReplyDeleteHope you get some sunshine soon!
So with you on the kids ~ I think they all shop at my local grocery store you could come here and flip them off in person :)
ReplyDeleteSorry about your "not what youe expected" cooking adventure. I will take it if you must, just to get rid of it and all :)
