Food For Thought Friday: Chocolate Cake

Hello everyone. This week was full of tension because I was getting my English results but thank God it all worked out well.

We all get these random food cravings. Nachos, ice-cream,pizza and the mouth watering chocolate cake.
Here is a recipe for a delicious chocolate cake which we have been using forever.

Ingredients

6 oz self raising flour.
Pinch Salt
4oz butter
1tbsp golden syrup
Castor sugar to sprinkle
2 oz chocolate powder
2 eggs
4 oz sugar
Milk to mix-if necessary.

Preparation

Grease and line a 7 inch cake tin. Sieve flour,chocolate powder and salt together. Beat the eggs well and cream the butter and sugar. Add eggs and dry ingredients alternately to the creamed mixture. After all flour is added, add the syrup and milk ( milk is to be added only if it is necessary to make your mixture to a soft spoon dropping consistency.
Put in the middle of a moderately hot oven (400 F or the number 6 in your gas burner) for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. To check if it is well done put a toothpick or skewer in the middle. If it comes out clean that means your cake is ready to go.

Cool the cake before pulling it out of the tin and then invite a couple of friends eat cake and let me know how it turned out to be xx

Love,
Zarnish xx

School,Anxiety and Get Fit Journey Update!

Ola Amigos!
It's Friday! That means day after tomorrow I have school :( which is pretty crap but one of my resolutions was to have a positive attitude towards everything so yaaaay? :P
Today has been pretty busy, for starters I was arranging all my homework and setting all that up. Gotta be prepared for Sunday.
In Dubai and the Middle East, we have our weekend on Friday,Saturday. So basically I have Sunday blues.
So school is coming and now I have to be prepared and take care of my skin more because when school is in session I am just burdened with school work and this year I am giving my IGCSE's which seriously is so scary. Eeeeek!
So I am going to have a timetable and I have even started a diary and a beauty journal so I can like get easy to do skin care tips and I will definitely leave a blog post for that tomorrow.
So today I had an anxiety attack which is pretty rubbish. Gaaah. Anxiety is just booo :(
Today I ate clean and drank plenty of water and avoided all the junk food I could. I am pretty proud of my self.
So hopefully starting tomorrow I will be able to eat clean, be active and get fit!
                  Wish me luck!
