Twinsies Cont.

I seriously found Doug's Twin.
THIS IS NOT DOUG: (I SWEAR)
Sid Lee's using the impostor pictured above for some photoshoot they're doing.
He lives in Amsterdam and probably smokes way more than Doug.
Doug's more of a drinker.
THIS IS DOUG:

Swatch of the Day

Once again, not a Swatch at all.
It's a Nixon but I love it nonetheless.
It's elastic. (Boogie, boogie, boogie, boogie).

I really need some new Swatches but the only Swatch store in Montreal is at the airport and I don't have a car.
I wish I would've bought the two awesome ones I saw in Miami.
(1. all black with black @ symbol on white face)
(2. all black with red and black target on white face)
I also wish my mom still read my blog.
And for my third wish, I wish my mom still read my blog and then went to the Swatch store in Miami to buy me them.
Hi Ma. Te quiero!

SUCK ON THIS

Eau Yeah!

Look at this awesome, not-photoshopped PEPSI machine i saw the other day.
FUCK Water. Drink PEPSI.
Uh, that's an awesome tagline.

Nanaimo Cupcakes

I'm really into baking these days, since I'm getting old.
This weekend's venture was Nanaimo Cupcakes.
I posted this on my facebook status and a lot (2) of my international followers asked me to send them some. Unfortunately due to lame import laws, I can't do that. So here is the recipe instead, along with some pretty helpful photos of the process.

Ingredients:
Cake
1 cup boiling water
1/2 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1 cup sugar
1 tsp vanilla extract
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tsp baking soda
1/8 tsp baking powder
1/8 tsp salt
1/4 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup ground almonds
1/4 cup unsweetened dessicated coconut

frosting
1 cup unsalted butter, room temperature
1/4 cup + 4 tsp cream
1/4 cup custard powder
4 cups icing sugar

Process:
Dissolve cocoa powder in boiling water, and allow to cool to room temperature.
(Spillage should occur at a 60˚ angle. I use a "towards-the-body mixing technique.)

Preheat oven to 350˚F and line a mini muffin tin with paper liners. Cream together butter and sugar.
Combine the rest of the ingredients, and them add them to the butter mixture alternately with the cocoa mixture.

(Note: You should make sexual faces while you mix. The cake will come out more moist.)

While all this is happening, your dog's balls should look like this:
Fill liners about 3/4 full, and bake for 10 - 12 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the centre of a cupcake comes out clean.

After all that, your stove should look like this.
For the frosting, just beat until smooth!
Your shirt should look like this:
When your roommate drops the icing sugar, that should look like this:
(She MUST be wearing Crocs)

In the end, they should come out looking better than this:
