Chocolate Rice-Krispie Hearts

You Will need..

Mars chocolate (As many as you want...I used about 5 of the mini ones..)
About a cup of rice krispies (Add more if you want..)
Some butter..
A tea-spoon of honey (optional of course..to add extra sweetness)

Method

  1. Over Medium-High heat, melt the butter and the chocolate using a double boiler (That means, you boil some water first then you add a bowl -with your chocolate and butter in it, ofcourse- on top of the boiling water..The steam of the water will melt the butter & chocolate)
    This is the correct way of melting the chocolate..so it doesn't burn or become dry!
  2. Turn off the heat when you notice that the chocolate has become a bit slippery :p Then add the rice krispies.
  3. Mix them together and voila!

I used heart-shaped molds to shape them into hearts :)

Lindt white chocolate cookies :)

Everyone said they were absolutely divine..

I, on the other hand, thought they tasted too dough-like.
Doesn't really matter since I don't really like cookies :D


Today I discovered that with each passing day and experience, I get to know myself a little better.
I found out that I don't hate calculus..infact, I like it more than algebra :)
and I'm not a baking person......I'm more interested in the decorating/packaging process..


In the spirit of Halloween, I really really am craving some gnocchi with pumkin cream sauce :D yummyness

Anyway, here are the pictures..I apologize for the bad photo quality..




into the oven went my little toffee look alike babies



and out came a bunch of lovely princesses :D

guilt

Thank you Dina and Ghadah for your comments on my previous posts :)

I embarrassed my cousin by blurting out something awful about one of her kids. She and her husband denied it (out of embarrassment, of course) and now I feel horrible. I've been told millions and millions and billions of times that I'm very very very very very very very inconsiderate, but it never really hit me as it did now.

She hasn't told me anything..bl3aks she's acting like nothing happened but I'm guilt stricken and I don't think I can face her or her husband ever again :(

Make me feel better..please?

Fudge it.

I'm very frustrated at how some people just love putting me down and crushing my dreams.

Uni beauty regime

Hello :)

This semester, most of my classes start at 8 AM so I don't usually have that much time of ma5mi5ing infront of my mirror with my makeup and hair pins.

So I've come up with a way of looking good AND showing up 30 minutes early to each of my morning classes ;)

Here it is

Clothes: Picked out the day before!

Hair: I dyed it this caramel light brown color that DOESN'T turn orange under the sunlight..walla :p took me forever to get it the shade I want!
Anyway, I either curl it loose curls the night before and use lots of hairspray to keep it in place OR I part it in the middle and twist it into a bun.
Not a messy one though...I don't really pull off the fashionable messy bun look..mine will just look plain messy.



Makeup:


1- Cargo Bronzer in Medium




Honestly, this is the Best.Bronzer.Of.All.Time

It blends so naturally. Doesn't blotch nor does it make you look orange..it actually makes you look like you've got a real tan

Whenever I use it I get lots of compliments..

Plus, it's the bronzer they use on Dancing With The Stars ;)

2- Labello

I prefer using the plain flavorless one..I've come to discover that the cherry one makes you look like you've overdone your lipliner. And the strawberry is too red for my taste!






It's the kind of lipstick that doesn't fade under any circumstances..but after a while it really dries up so I always keep my labello with me to moisturize my lips. And it looks like I've got my lips tattooed :P







My blush isn't the same color as the one in the pic..mine's more pinkish.
I use it right before I use my bronzer..looks very natural :) I love it!






Makes my lashes go sideways which I love and it really lasts long..One of the best mascaras ever..it's just as good as Armani's Eyes to Kill ;)


Jewellry: I love Diamonds :) I wear them everywhere

  • Earrings: Diamond studs or small diamond loops..depends on my mood really..
  • On my left hand: Rolex gold watch aaand my diamond tennis bracelet.
  • On my right hand: My mom's old diamond wedding rings.
  • Necklaces: depends on my mood.


Shoes: Oooh that's a whole different post :D


I'm sleepy :) good night xoxo
