Cake in a cup

I go to school in the remotest of remotest regions. Target is 30 minutes away. The closest mall is an hour away. This means I spend a LOT of time online shopping. And online shopping for me means a LOT of deliberation. I carefully craft outfits in my head (and oh what a safe place that is) and pick and choose pieces that will give me the most bang for my buck. And I have decided what that piece is this year: a sequined blazer.  This one in fact:



I'm picturing it with a grey sweater, some nutty beanie, Balenciaga-esque jodphurs and staggeringly high boots. or with jeans and a white button down and heels. Or with black hoodie and drop-crotch pants ...eee can't wait!

now listening: sophie ellis bextor - murder on the dance floor



THE MUCH REQUESTED CAKE IN A CUP RECIPE:
- one box o' brownie/cake/some chocolate thing mix (the kind that come in boxes)
- water
- mug
- microwave

1. Take a cup/half cup/however much you want of the brownie mix.
2. add water. Enough to make it pretty liquidy. More liquidy than cake batter, less than just water. Like the perfect cup of hot chocolate. 
3. pop in microwave for 30 sec to 1 min (depending on the strength of your microwave. we have a weak sauce excuse for a nuker so I leave it in for 1:15)

will post pictures later.
