Shimmy Shimmy Coconut

My life is pretty crappy right now making me an incredibly woeful food blogger. My laptop is still broken (meaning I’m left with a crappy Dell work computer that has adminstrative privileges preventing me doing pretty much everything!). What’s worse is that my camera got stolen out of my dorm room while I took my rubbish to the bin (I stupidly thought I could leave my room unlocked for the three minutes it takes to walk to and from the garbage room) and I really can’t afford a new camera right now. Compounding these technology issues is the realisation that I should be writing up my thesis but don’t have nearly enough data to do so. To put this last point into perspective, I have an entire results chapter worth of results to get (about 1 to 1 and a half years worth of work) in about 8 months! Anyway, those are the reasons for my lack of posting, but hopefully things will settle down soon, I’ll get some more results for my thesis, my parents will take pity on me and buy me a camera and Toshiba will help me out and pay for some of the repairs for my poor little laptop.

Hopefully those who occasionally visit this site will continue to do so as there will be a few posts eventually (once I acquire a camera of some sort), including my vegan version of creme brulee,  a recipe for wattleseed and macadamia-crusted tofu, a second attempt at zucchini puffs, stuffed french toast, and some cupcake recipes I’ve been trying out (how does lavender-vanilla bean cupcakes with a lavender-infused buttercream frosting sound?).
