I tried to make these into adorable little bundt cakes and it just didn’t work as I had hoped. I swear, the only thing that is sure to work in this world is silicone muffin cups. Nothing sticks to that sh*t. I wonder if there are adorable mini bundt cake liners out there. Now that’s something worth investing in.
Let’s talk about the Golden Globes. First off, what the hell was up with George Clooney’s wife’s gloves? So many ssssss. But really, what’s up with that? White gloves? And Jennifer Aniston? Come on. Jen, you’re the most gorgeous human of all time and you showed up to the GG wearing an updo like the one I sported at my first homecoming dance. I didn’t have a date…for a reason. Your new stylist has failed you. But for real, just go naked next time. The fashion police would eat that up! And then you don’t have to pay for a stylist! Win win. You’re welcome.
The Golden Globes make me miss living with girls. Don’t get me wrong, I love living with my boyfriend, but when awards season begins, I need ladies in my life. We used to plan our entire weekend around these awards night. Sorority style. We’d make dinner together, drink wine (not me because wine tastes like rotten cat piss – I would just eat dessert), watch all the pre-show dress shenanigans, judge the sh*t out of people’s outfits even though all we really wanted was to be those people, then hated every second of the actual Golden Globes because we knew none of the movies they were talking about. BREATHE. I’m pretty good at run on sentences. This year, the boyfriend wasn’t home so I was able to do all of the above by myself but it just wasn’t near as fun. Meaning catty. I swear I’m a good person. Swear.
But let’s talk about what’s really important about the entire night…Chrissy Teigen’s pony tail. I envy pony tails like that. All I want out of life is volume in my hair. Instead I’ve been given lifeless, blonde hair that often times looks like I’m balding, which means I just need to dye it. I’ve literally read on the internet that people think I have an eating disorder because my hair is thinning. Say whaaaa? Unfair. I see these voluminous pony tails and look at mine and it looks like a limp ween in comparison. Not offensive, just pure fact. My lawd, a woman is about to chew me out in the comment section for that last sentence.
I would say the Golden Globes did their job sufficiently. They reminded us how odd Matthew McConaughey has become after transforming into his character from True Detective and how stupid hilarious Ricky Gervais is, sober or whatever he was while on stage. That Katie Holmes jokes…you’re good, my man. Tina Fey and Amy Poehler should just do Bill Cosby impersonations all day, every day. And now that they’re done with the Golden Globes, I honestly will probably never watch it again. No one is as funny. Except Jimmy Fallon. Ok, I would watch it for Jimmy Fallon. BUT THAT’S IT.

This is my favorite combo of flavors!-Making them ASAP! I look forward to your blog posts because your recipes are amazing and you are hilariously entertaining! Thanks for everything
All the celebrities use supplemental hair, whether it’s wigs, toppers, clip-ins or extensions. That’s why they look so good. We can look like that too!
You crack me up! I could read your posts all day! Sorry if this is a dumb question… Can I use one of the Starbucks Via packs for the teaspoon of instant espresso?
surely!
Get a bump it! Bahahaha
ha! forgot about those
I just made this. I’m a mama of a 4 month old and time is hella limited, so I just dumped the batter in a loaf pan and baked it longer. It turned out sooooo tasty and I love it! Arigato! Amen.
Lol. Don’t worry about your limp pony tail. All you need is an extension piece put in like most of these celebs wear. Trust me most of their hair is not that thick and voluminous. It’s all about the extentions. I know cuz I work in a salon.
That whole thing was just too funny. I forgot there was even a recipe at the bottom.
lol i kind of love hearing that…even if it was the first time
Almost jumped and down when I realized I had (almost) all the ingredients for these. Think I can sub normal coffee grounds for the instant?
i have!
YES! That’s exactly what it’s like when the Awards come on… men have no idea. Plan your weekend around is cos you’ll miss out on pop culture if you don’t, (wth will we talk about at the water cooler).
And i’ve been scouring all over to find a banana “muffin” recipe! -Thanks
I never followed a blog until I found yours. I effin’ love it. For reals. And now I follow other blogs, but they’re the ones you shout-out in your entries. So, like, when people are all, “You’re not the boss of me!” You are totes the boss of me. You should be the boss of other people. Like the shady shadesters that leave rude comments. Eff those kids. I can only hope their entry into the pearly gates requires an epic game of dodge ball, only they never get the ball. They only dodge. You know, because they suck. Keep doing what you’re doing. You’re good at it.
lol now this comment is effing awesome! i actually chuckled to myself. you rock!
