The Beebas' Bottoms

I think it was due one, don’t you? What do you think?

Meantime, I am having one problem with the blog… I can’t add new links to my links lists (you know, friends blogs, etc.)  Everytime I try, it tells me I do not have permissions to access the page?  very frustrating.  I would love any ideas on a solution to that.

I’ve been working on a custom blending job for a fellow raveler this week.  She had some Llama fiber she wanted blended with a commercial blend of Merino and alpaca.  Ooh, these are soft fibers.  The batts are coming out really nicely.  I love them.  Best part is, I get to keep some of the fiber, so I can make some for me, too.  yay.  They are simple brown, but you know what?  Sometimes spinning is about texture rather than about color.

Oh, and I made this Cake in a cup recipe today.  Seriously, if you have not tried this, YOU MUST TRY THIS.  This is the yummiest, quickest recipe for chocolate cake (FROM SCRATCH) that I have ever had.  soo good, and between prep time and cooking time, it literally takes 5 minutes.  seriously.  in the time it takes you to decide waht to have for a snack, you could have a nice, piping hot chocolate cake.  how awesom?  Top it with some whipped cream, and ooh… luscious!

So, here’s the recipe:

MINUTE CHOCOLATE MUG cake

1 Coffee Mug
4 tablespoons flour(that’s plain flour, not self-rising)
4 tablespoons sugar
2 tablespoons baking cocoa
1 egg
3 tablespoons milk
3 tablespoons oil
3 tablespoons chocolate chips (optional)
Small splash of vanilla

Add dry ingredients to mug, and mix well . Add the egg and mix thoroughly. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well. Add the chocolate chips (if using) and vanilla, and mix again. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts. The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don’t be alarmed!

To any readers i may have, TTFN!  I’ll be back in a few days, with new fibers, and fun yarns!

Oh, and don’t forget, the Indie Dyers Coop is stocking again on Tuesday!  The biggest stocking ever, so truly, don’t miss it!  Oh, and we have a whole new look, and a bunch of new vendors, so check it out!
