Then the Food...

I wouldn't really call myself domesticated. The last time I lived alone was in 2006. I guess I've grown up a lot in the past three years. Now that I'm living on my own again, I am MUCH more comfortable being alone. I believe I've finally made that cross-over in life where the 20s are almost out (which means, the hell years must be almost over lol).

Anyway, so where does the food come in? I asked my mother's friend to teach me how to bake a killer chocolate cake in October 2008 when I was in Oman for a break. Little did I know that when I'd get back I'd ask for a divorce. So, I never got to bake that cake for my former husband. So what's the next best thing? Well, bake it for Miggity! So it had been only 2 months I had known him. Big deal. So, I baked a killer test cake. Then, on the day of his birthday surprise, I baked a killer chocolate over chocolate cake. Honestly, probably the best chocolate cake I've ever had. Here's the Ina Garten recipe I used: http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/ina-garten/beattys-chocolate-cake-recipe/index.html



Miggity and I have formed this synergy over food. I know all this makes it sound like this huge overly romantic relationship, but it's not. It's quite simple. And it has boundaries in terms of space. Nevertheless, he (and my best friend Leah) have put the blood back into my life. And if the boy and I happen to fall out, there will ALWAYS be cake!
