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.

*melts*

Just the thought of using Fanta for anything you're supposed to eat makes me feel a bit queasy. It has such an unnatural colour! And taste! And if it can replace both eggs and oil it really makes me wonder what's in it! (Also, if you still have to add eggs and oil what's the use of a cake mix?)

Ugh, seems all of Europe is having far too hot weather right now! Let's keep our fingers crossed it will get much cooler for all of us SOON!

Fanta at least has the virtue of not being as disgusting as Pepsi. I remember being a bit mizzed by the need to add oil and egg to the cake mix, mostly because it had never previously occurred to me to put oil in a cake. I mean, I guess it's perfectly logical, but I've always used butter or Stork.

My phone says it will rain ALL DAY tomorrow, and also thunder. *eyes it cynically* We shall see.
