I just discovered that it is possible to bake a chocolate cake from a mix using Fanta instead of eggs and oil. And thus, to get a chocolate orange cake.
I am definitely going to try this!

Oh GOD it is so hot! Woe. But, we are due thunderstorms on, wait a sec, Thursday, Friday, Sunday and Monday. And on Saturday, when we are supposed to be seeing a play at an outdoor venue, it will rain. Rapture.

Date: 2020-08-12 09:36 pm (UTC)can you take plastic sheeting or something to cover yourself for the outdoor play? if it doesn't rain, it could stay folded up in your bag but it might help keep you drier if the skies do open

But Saturday is also showing thunder... we shall see. Yesterday, it showed rain. Who knows? Ooh, thunder on Saturday, Sunday and Monday. I do not believe this, but it would make an exciting change.

Date: 2020-08-13 08:37 pm (UTC)It's unfortunate that I tend to eat too much when it is really hot—too much ice cream, that is. I cannot be bothered to make wholesome food, but a lolly is easy.
I gotta try the Fanta cake, really.

Date: 2020-08-14 10:59 am (UTC)We had about half an hour of solid thunder this morning, but frankly I have no idea what the weather will be like tomorrow. I think we'll decide about an hour before it's due to start whether we'll go or not!
