Baking

Today I felt like I wanted something my grandma typically made around this time of the year. It’s called apricot cake, a typical viennese desert or coffee cake. You need: How to: Combine butter and powdered sugar and beat until soft and smooth. Add the eggs one by one and keep combining until all eggs are in the bowl and mixed. Now add the flour bit by bit and keep combining until you have a smooth dough. Using a baking tray put a baking paper on the tray and put the dough evenly on the baking tray. Now add the apricots. Pre-Heat the oven to 160C and bake for 20 to 35 minutes depending on your oven. When you take it out, let it cool down and put powdered sugar on top. You can also replace Apricots by Strawberries, Peaches, Cherries and other fresh fruit. The only fruits that don’t work are apples, pears, oranges…

Feeling great

As you know I have left my old employment at the end of March and I had a lot of time to myself and to relax. I’ve used the time to have a great Birthday on the 3rd just with myself and my Mum. It’s been a really good time. Eating my favourite food, then some Gelato and enjoying my apartment. I can also say that all the anxiety and depression I was suffering from over the months that had been caused my my former team leader has now fully gone away and I feel so much more better. It’s been weeks of change, enabling a better lifestyle and enjoying the time with myself and my dog. At the end when you compare I moved to Whitley Bay 4 years ago I had an empty apartment and slept on the floor for weeks because the bed I wanted had a delivery time, look at my apartment now it’s fully done and carpeted, the garden is in a good condition and garden furniture. I’ve spent about 11K over the past 4 years in doing this place up to my standard. There is a lot I can be happy and thankful about.

Mutual another try

Sitting in general conference session on this Saturday I’ve decided to fine the mutual dating site another try and subscribed for another six months. Last time I was on the site it was full of crazy woman, scammers and liars. Let’s see what the site is like this time around.  Don’t get me wrong I would love to find someone who is from Utah to spend time together walk hand in hand with while enjoying the scenery at Zion’s national park or just have a stroll through down town salt lake but the likely hood of that happening is slim. I’d also love to find someone to live in Miami or in fact any other place I think I’m getting to a point where I miss someone at my side.  It’s incredible how many people swiped up on me in just the first 24 hours however those who answered my first message remain slim. So am I doing the right thing? Speaking to my mum about it between sessions she said no risk no fun and sometimes you have to take risks in life. Yes I know and I know the right person is out there somewhere. Maybe I’m just too comfortable at the moment. I rather design new shirts and mugs right now they don’t hurt and embarrass you they either sell or don’t. Hmm what a marvellous work and a wonder president Hinckley once said and indeed looking back at the conference it was.
