It’s convenient to keep a plate or two of chocolate in the freezer. Then when making chocolate cake, I can just take it out, place it on a suitable surface such as a cutting board, and pound the unopened packet with a hammer, mallet, sledgehammer, blunt end of an axe, or other convenient kitchen utensil. Mind you, this works best with chocolate wrapped in fairly strong plastic. Paper wrapping tends to tear much more. When pounded such, the cold chocolate will break into small bits, suitable for spreading on top of cake or mixing into batter. Room-tempered chocolate won’t break as easily, being more plastic and less brittle. It’ll tend to deform and melt more. It’s also convenient to keep chocolate in the fridge or cupboard, in case you fancy a chocolate.

I have, of all things, now learnt that lukewarm coffee in my eye in uncomfortable. I feel rather relieved at not having learnt what hot coffee in my eye feels like.
Oh, right. Christmas. Merry whatsit to you all, if you weren’t and don’t know anybody who were on holiday in warmer places. Don’t overeat, you’ll go to Hell for gluttony.
Blå konditorfarge kostar tre kroner flaska. På tide å baka litt.
Åt smalahovud med nokre frender frå Svalbard. Kjøtet var slett ikkje gale, men det var mykje pes å skilja det frå hud, hinner, auge og bein. Viss ein vaskar skallen etterpå har ein ein fin telysestake.
I helga er det Åslo-SMASH. Hurra. Fylla! Var på den Clas Ohlson og kjøpte lerke samt litt anna gøy. Men dei var utselde for veggmonterbare øljekkar. Så frekt.
Det vart ein gutunge! Grattis, Øystein og Una. Endå ein onkelunge å gløyma bursdagen til.
Raka av meg skjegget igjen. Jaha, er det slik eg ser ut.
