No Foolin' 5-Minute Chocolate Mug Cake

I came across this wonderful, quick, easy and yumm chocolate mug recipe :o) and just had to share it with you all... so the next time you crave for something sweet, some chocolate or some cake... 5 minutes is all it'll take :o) Oh yeah... make sure to use a LARGE mug, as the cake size is pretty generous! :D 

Enjoy!!

What you'll need:

1 large mug

4 Tbsp. flour

4 Tbsp. sugar

2 Tbsp. cocoa

1 large egg

3 Tbsp. milk

3 Tbsp. oil

1/4 cup chocolate chips (plus some extra for sprinkling on top when it comes out of the microwave)

a small splash of vanilla extract

Instructions: 

1. Add dry ingredients to mug and mix well.

2. Add the egg and mix thoroughly.

3. Pour in the milk and oil and mix well.

4. Add the 1/4 cup of chocolate chips and vanilla extract, and mix again.

5. Put your mug in the microwave and cook for 3 minutes at 1000 watts (high). The cake will rise over the top of the mug, but don't be alarmed! Remove from microwave and sprinkle top of cake with chocolate chips.

6. Allow to cool a little, and then dig in!

Pattie Maes & Pranav Mistry: Unveiling the "Sixth Sense," game-changing wearable tech!

I knew it... it was only a matter of time someone was going to create technology like this! I remember watching Minority Report and wondering ... does this really exist? This is really neat technology... must watch! :) 

Susan Boyle

The following video (need to go to the You Tube link to watch it) blew us away... didn't know what to expect, but felt horrible, how the judges and audience were so skeptical and were being disrespectful & laughing at Susan.

Everyone including us were blown away by her performance... absolutely brilliant!! What an amazing voice! Best of luck Susan!

The magic of Sound of Music!

Watching this video brought a big smile and I was singing and danced along :o)... Sound of Music, one of my fav childhood movies and lovely memories associated with it... summer holidays would start and mommy dear would rent the movie for all the kiddies (me, friends & cousins) to watch...

I can imagine mommy dear smiling and singing along as well!!

Although this is a T-Mobile advertisement shot in Antwerp... it's lovely to see, the magic of sound of music and all it's songs still lives!

Enjoy :o)
