Birthday Battenberg
Mark’s birthday was a rather busy day what with nearly getting stuck in the wrong country. Not a lot of time for cake baking! So here it is a few days late with rather a lot of candles. Note to self: be more tidy in the kitchen.
Baked at 160 degrees in a fan oven for 30 mins.
350g soft butter
350g golden caster sugar
280g plain flour
100g ground almonds
3½ tsp baking powder
6 eggs
1 tsp vanilla extract
I then separated the mixture in half and added 2 tbsp of berry coulis to one bowl and 2 tbsp of milk to the other.
I trimmed the outside edges of the sponge and smothered it in apricot jam before wrapping it in natural marzipan.

I jumped on the bandwagon…

…….. and it’s a one way trip.


————————————————————————-

Hahah! But yeah… I was chatting with a buddy from ‘FA’ when he suddenly linked me to ‘Nyan Cat’ stating, “We need to jump onto the bandwagon… ‘BATTENBURG BUNNY’.”

And here we are :P The idea is credited to him and the design and animation is by me xP

Enjoy~!

When I was 16, I had a fake I.D. and decided to go to a gay bar by myself because some friends bailed on me. While there, an older gentleman bought me a drink. He wasn’t a creeper, and he definitely wasn’t unattractive. I accepted the drink and began talking to him. No big deal. As the hour progressed, I felt myself feeling strange. I mentioned that I felt like I had a headache, and this guy helped guide me out of the bar. As we were walking down the street, the thought of, ‘Oh god, he’s drugged me, I’m going to die’ came to my head. I tried to get away, but I was so drugged up that I could barely walk, let alone speak. It also didn’t help that I had really large ‘goth’ platform shoes because I was going through a phase. Anyway, this guy brought me to his suv and began undressing me. As a final act of defiance, I hit him over the head with my platform shoe. He then punched me, and I remember thinking, ‘Why don’t they ever give workshops to gay guys about being victims of rape too?’ While I was as careful as possible, I never saw the guy slip something in the drink. I even watched the bar tender make the drink. Anyway, I lied there completely paralyzed while this pervert was lubing up. I locked eyes with his for a moment, and that’s when it happened. A very large and angry drag queen opened the door of the vehicle and beat the shit out of my attempted rapist. She and her other drag friends helped dress and care for me while the police arrived. I was saved by a group of guardian drag queens. They were basically the modern day ‘angels from heaven.’
