Groundy is back from hibernation

 Hi everyone.  Today is Wednesday Feb 22.  I am doing okay. It seems there could be a war unlike what we have seen before. But the message I perceive from my religious kookiness is that it is still okay to care about our own lives.  Like it is okay to have goals and try to say the right thing to friends sometimes. However I plan to really do better with my complaining tendencies, especially when I have turkey burgers in the freezer and a fresh box of chocolates. 

So okay. Something else kind of interesting is that my pen name is Refried Bean and my grandmother’s actual name was Marguerita.  So that is kind of funny.  I told my sister if she wants to write some books maybe she could be Flan.  Because her real name is Anne.  

 

My last name is Efird which is like Refried.  My dad’s email always said refird. So that is interesting. I am thinking about using some corn flour for cookies.  I think I cracked the code which is to make corn flour cookies with a glaze icing, and then use oatmeal and regular flour for oatmeal raisin cookies.  Like might as well make the yummier choice.  Sometimes I choose survival options when really the ingredients are there to make a normal dish that has more servings anyway. 

 

So what have we learned. I deleted my other blog because it became out of control with wrenching and documenting harms against me.  And who wants to read that instead of some funny jokes and pleasantries. I have some time to decide whether to undelete it or not.  I think I can if I want to and it does not matter. However I was trying to start over with a friendly attitude.  

 

Well have a nice day everyone.

Egg Nog Cake

 Hi everyone, I hope you are having a nice day. I am writing this post to tell everyone about an exciting easy recipe where you can make a small square cake out of some cake mix, flour and baking powder, and eggnog.  That is all.  In a way, it is a two ingredient recipe but in another way it has a few more steps.  Basically the concept is that instead of adding eggs and oil and water as in a normal cake mix recipe, you use egg nog, which already has egg, milk, and sugar.  That means you have to divide the cake mix, only using about half a bag, and add some flour and baking powder. That is so the cake won’t be too sweet.  Don’t measure the ingredients if you can help it.  Because the idea of this cake is just a scrounge around casual cake.  And then for the icing, instead of using some kind of store icing, you mix powdered sugar (a lot) with a few tablespoons of the egg nog.  The icing is like cookie icing and it is so yummy.  This cake will turn out great, and you will probably have the exact ingredients to make another one the next day or later on. The cake is especially good with apple cider.  And then to turn on a youtube music with Christmas piano carols or something can help provide a whole hour or so of a nice holiday feeling. I believe the conspiracy helped me think of this, but it was one of the best cakes I have ever made. Just mix it in the aluminum square pan, no need for a bowl. 350 degrees. 20 minutes or until set. The idea is simple causal scratch recipe.  I used the vanilla spice flavor egg nog but it doesn’t matter. Well have a nice day.
