the crumble which didn't crumble

Really have had a productive day of revision.../baking. Baking food is so indescribably satisfying. If revision and baking were not verbs and in actual fact humans, baking would destroy revision until it was lying helpless on the floor.


I decided to invite dear v-mary round to do some revision. She was like 'sure', so she hurried on over in Trav the oblong. We ended up deciding to make lunch before we 'cracked on' and made a delicious pasta salad. It included, pasta (obvs), ham, kidney beans, peas, garlic, parsley, parmesan, olive oil dressing (which nearly blew my head off when i tried it as it was so strong!) mixed it all together, and shabang. We then wanted something sweet, so decided to bake a summer fruits crumble.. Well, it was meant to be easy but we ended up starting the bread crumbs again as ours turned into dough. Bread crumbs, i mean you'd think they'd be easy to make! hell no, they're a dark horse when it comes to complexity. So anyway, we eventually managed to resolve that problem, we also managed to stain the chopping board with blackberry juices and mis-judge the amount of bread crumbs we needed in order to cover the fruits. A quick panic of making up some more crumble and throwing it on top worked marvelously. Must say, with a splodge of ice cream and a cup of tea, we were over the moon.


Also
1.managed to get 2 hours of revision done
2.tidy my room with Mary's moral support of sitting on my bed complaining about my wall destruction
3.watch 'made in chelsea' which mary and i have found a resembling character to an OLD friend of ours. Spencer, is the double! He looks like him, drives the same car, dresses like him, and talks just like him. 'Hun' and 'mate' are two significant examples of words he says where he leaves his tongue at the back of his teeth without finishing the word properly.... what posh people do. (wannabe-posh-people)


Now in bed with the prospect of getting up in exactly 6 hours and 20 minutes. Not long at all-money money money.


Left over pasta salad for lunch, i'm like a kid on Christmas eve, can't wait for it.


Ps My ukulele has arrived, i'm going to get strumming so soon.
