sometimes i drive so fast, just to feel the danger

lately all i've wanted to listen to is my very old avril lavigne 'let go' cd.

almost vintage i suppose, 90's is vintage now right?

well this was always my favourite song, seriously just get a hairbrush slash microphone and do a little bathroom mirror performance

+ plus the lyrics make me feel so good

It's empty in the valley of your heart The sun, it rises slowly as you walk
Away from all the fears
And all the faults you've left behind

The harvest left no food for you to eat
You cannibal, you meat-eater, you see
But I have seen the same
I know the shame in your defeat

But I will hold on hope
And I won't let you choke
On the noose around your neck

So come out of your cave walking on your hands
And see the world hanging upside down
You can understand dependence
When you know the maker's hand

nowhere better than this place

surprise

see that groovin babe on the left?

none other than president barack obama

RASPBERRY CHEESECAKE BROWNIES

valentine schmellytine

i'd rather these raspberry cheesecake brownies than anyone tall, dark and handsome (and italian) anyday..

cough cough

MAKES: 15 (or just enough for one lonely unvalentine)

INGREDIENTS:

200g good-quality dark chocolate

200g unsalted butter, softened
400g caster sugar
5 eggs
110g plain flour, sifted
400g cream cheese
1 tsp vanilla extract
120g fresh raspberries

METHOD:
1. Preheat the oven to 170°C. Grease and line a 20 x 30cm lamington pan.

2. Place the chocolate in a bowl over a pan of simmering water until melted. Set aside to cool slightly.
3. Cream the butter and 250g of the caster sugar until pale, then add 3 of the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Stir in the melted chocolate, then fold in the flour. Spread three-quarters of the mixture into the lined pan.
4. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese, remaining sugar and eggs and the vanilla extract until smooth, then spread over the chocolate base.
5. Dollop the remaining chocolate mixture over the cream cheese layer and use a fork to swirl the chocolate. 6. Poke the raspberries into the top and bake in the oven for 40-45 minutes.
7. Set aside to cool, then cut into squares and serve.
