Finally got to making my carrot cake yesterday. It turned out great (which was wonderful after the disaster that was the coffee cake that didn't taste like coffee that also didn't rise much and sank in the middle when I took it out of the oven). It is lovely and moist in the middle, although I had to cook it for fifteen minutes longer than the recipe said because it was too moist when I checked it.

It smelt DIVINE, too, while it was cooking, which was lovely.

I wish I could post pics (I have them for reference), but all my cakes seem to look the same. Obviously I will have to bake a Victoria sponge or something next (well, maybe after the biscuits) (Although damnit, I can't think of a more boring cake).

In Origins, I have made it to Ortan Thaig. Oghren disapproved me for suggesting Branka might be dead already. Pfft. She's been gone two years, I am not holding out hope.

In related news, the Deep Roads creep me out even when I am not being assailed by Darkspawn.

However, I wish Alistair would stop dying all the time, silly templar. Even Leliana lasts longer in a fight than he does! (Although, to be fair, I gave her a bow because I was fed up of her being squishy).

Aw, man, so tired. I think I know why, but I don't think you want to hear it.
