Trophy cupcake
From Trophy Cupcakes
Dark chocolate raspberry, so dark chocolate cake with raspberry buttercream filling and chocolate ganache. It was tasty, though it was also the first Trophy cupcake that kinda fell apart on me.

Orange macarons
These are some of the tastiest macarons to come out of my tiny kitchen...
Some baking notes:
  • Orange zest is an amazing flavor enhancer
  • Silicon baking mats are quite nice
  • Templates really help with size consistency

Hello February!

January seemed to pass pretty quickly. I was an extreme homebody for most of it. So goals review...:

Fun goal: finish the Starcraft 2 Legacy of the Void campaign
Done! Had fun with it, tho haven't gotten all the achievements... but, that's ok. I do miss multiplayer, it's weird not playing with friends (apparently I am a social gamer according to this quiz)

Hard goal: fix my sleep schedule so that I naturally want to go to bed around midnight
Aaahahaha I tried. There was a stretch where I was going to bed at 2 each night. Bad. Fail. Sigh. Getting a tiny bit better tho...

So for February 2016:
Fun goal: finish reading Asimov's robot series (it's been on my Kindle since Nov)
Hard goal: cleaning out electronics, aka selling and/or donating old unused electronic devices
