DIY: 2 Minute Microwave Milo Brownies.

Hello Everyone!

As you all know by the title of this blog post, I'll be teaching you how to make... MICROWAVE MILO BROWNIES!

I know it sounds a bit weird to use Milo instead of cocoa since we always use cocoa as a base for brownies. But, i added a little twist to this recipe. 

This recipe is all made from scratch. Which means that i had to do some trial and error to make this brownie taste better. 

You may also add a couple of chocolate chips to make it sweeter. But for me, i do not prefer my brownies as very sweet.

So, let's begin!

Ingredients you'll need:

Milo

Milk

Sugar

Flour

And an egg

First off, you'll need to get your bowl or a mug if you prefer to eat your brownies in a mug. 

 

Next, you'll have to add 4 table spoons of Milo in your bowl.

Add 3 tablespoons of flour into your bowl.

After that, add 4 tablespoons of sugar. (You may put 3 tablespoons if you don't want it too sweet)

Mix all the dry ingredients you've placed in your bowl. 

In a separate bowl, beat one egg until the yolk has broke as shown above.

After beating the egg, add the egg yolk mixture in the dry ingredient bowl. 

After that, mix it all together until you get this dough consistency. 

Next, add 3 tablespoons of milk into the bowl. 

Mix the, all together until you get a soft and heavy consistency as shown above.

Place your bowl into the microwave and set for 2 minutes. 

Once it's all done, go ahead and get your finished product out of the microwave and let it out to cool for 5 minutes. 

And here's my finished product! 

You can also add vanilla ice cream to your brownie to add a little more taste. OR you can put some whipped cream and raspberries at the top. :)

Hope you liked this post, i apologize for my photos in where my bowl gets a bit messy on the side.

Have a lovely day!

Updates..

Hello Everyone!

I am really really sorry for not posting up daily blog posts as what I've promised. But as you can see from the title, I'll be updating you guys on what's going on with my life and why I'm not posting new posts everyday or every week.

Ok number 1, I have school and the stress from all my homework and projects are all kicking in and its stressing me out so I can't really think of a new blog post to put up.

And number 2, I feel like I have to focus more on school than on my blog but I love blogging so much that I already have a list of my upcoming blog posts and I'm excited about it!

Oh and did you guys notice my blog style? It's changed and all thanks to Cory!

Love you all!

Music

Hello Everyone!

My apologies since it's been a while since I've posted a blog post. Uh oh. BUT today, I'm going to discuss to you about my favorite music for each genre, songs that I listen to or in general, I'm just going to talk about music. 

For me, music is life. And I think that music can express our feelings to one another. Whether we love them, have a crush on them or we just like them. Whenever we're sad or depressed, we can just go ahead and plug in our earphones to our phones and blast some tunes. 

Enough of the talking; here's my top 3 favorite pop/rock & rock albums I've been listening to lately.

1. Dirty Work by All Time Low. This album is amazing and I've been a fan of All Time Low for almost 2 years now. The songs in Dirty Work are amazing and one of my favorite songs on this album is I Feel Like Dancing and A Daydream Away. So I reckon you listen to this album. :)

2. Feel by Sleeping With Sirens. Sleeping With Sirens is great to listen to if you're into the rock and scream type of genre. I'm not gonna lie but i love this album even though there are a lot of scream-o parts in some songs. My favorite song in this album that has been on repeat lately is Dèja Vu.

3. Save Rock And Roll by Fall Out Boy. This album is my life and I listen to every single song on this album and i literally can't pick a favorite but the song that I listen to the most is Death Valley. And yeah, to me Fall Out Boy has a similar beat to All Time Low that's why I love it haha. 

And now we proceed to... INDIE SONGS. 

I, myself, is not really a huge fan of indie songs but when I'm in a car trip, is sometimes would like to listen to some indie songs. A few singers have caught my ears when I went to 8tracks and listen to some indie songs. 

I only have 2 favorites from the indie genre and they are:

1. English Rain by Gabrielle Aplin. Gabrielle Aplin is such an amazing song writer and singer aswell. Her music is fantastic and it makes me happy too. My most played song from her album is Please Don't Say You Love Me. 

2. Anchor by Mindy Gledhill. Mindy's songs on her album are so peaceful and her songs are great to listen to especially if you want to sleep during long car rides, etc. My favorite song from this album is All About Your Heart. 

So that's it!

Thanks for reading this post and I hope you guys enjoyed it! :)

Love you all and I hope you have a great day xx

Summer!

Hello Everyone!

Quick apologies for not posting a new blogpost for the past 4 days, it's just that, I'm currently struggling with ideas on what to post!

But as you can see the title of this post, i'll be talking about Summer.

Summer is my second favorite time of the year. (Well of course Christmas is first) despite the horrid heat coming from the sun, I still have fun during summer. When I go to the beach or get some ice cream, I can really feel that it's summer. 

Here is a collage that I've done about my favorite things about summer:

Beaches are the best part of my summer. Since I am an absolute beach lover, I really enjoy going to beaches with friends or family, it's a really great experience. 

One of my favorite beaches here in my country is Boracay.

I LOVE it here! The sand is amazing, the sea, and the beach in general is amazing! Boracay is a great beach for a getaway. Whether you're with your friends, family, relatives or loved ones, you will really enjoy your stay in Boracay. 

The other best part of summer is.... ICE CREAM! I mean, who doesn't love ice cream?! I love ice cream since it keeps me cool during summer and plus, it tastes really good! I reckon the mint and chocolate ice cream for you ice cream lovers ;)

Hope you guys liked this post!

Thanks to Pinterest for the photos.

What about you? What's your best part of summer? Comment below! xx

Friends And A Rabbit

    

Meet my friends. Abby (middle) & Pia (pink shirt). I spent the day with them just today and had fun. But the worst part of it was watching a horror film. 

I've mentioned in my post entitled 'About The Blogger...' That I dislike horror films. Pia, Abby and I had rules on watching the film: you can't cover your eyes while watching and you can't look away from the screen. Being the coward girl I am, I covered my eyes and looked away from the screen every now and then. 

                                     

  

And finally, meet Abby's rabbit, Charlotte. Charlotte's fat and big in personal but in pictures, she looks kinda small. A few hours ago while Pia, Abby and I went to Abby's room, I figured out that Charlotte was missing. So we searched through her house, bathroom, wherever, but then, Charlotte was just hiding under the bed! 

That's why I call Charlotte a mischievous rabbit since it's difficult for me to carry her and cradle her like a baby.

Talents

        

Meet my guitar. Which I spent months on learning. I started learning to play the guitar just last year, when I was 13. But now, I play with it almost everyday. Singing along to songs that come on shuffle on my phone, radio or tv.

I've been wanting to learn this special instrument ever since I was a child. Luckily, I taught myself how to play it and now, I can play any songs from acoustic singers like Ed Sheeran and Taylor Swift. This musical instrument inspired me to sing and maybe do a couple of covers on YouTube? 

I don't usually use a plectrum to play with my guitar since I just pluck or strum the strings using my fingers. 

Another talent I have is playing the piano. (Sorry I don't have a photo of it, I've already kept it in my cabinet!) I've been playing the piano ever since I was small since my grandmother used to play too. But I'm not an expert in playing the piano or anything but I just know how to play some songs on the piano. e.g. When I Was Your Man by Bruno Mars or All Of Me by John Legend.

Food Spots!

I've been to a LOT of restaurants lately and all of us sudden, I realized that I have so many favorite food spots! So today, I'm going to show you one of the best restaurants/cafès/ice-cream parlors that I have been loving. 

IHOP is my favorite place to go to for breakfast time! Yes, it may look like it won't make you full but the pancake makes your meal heavy! I really love the food in IHOP and I recommend this place for you if you're starving like a monkey and you're looking for a place to eat.

Ah yes. Ice-cream. The best part of after meals. I love cold stone despite the ice-cream but also their 

service. My experience with the workers in Cold Stone Creamery are amazing since they make you feel happy and make you feel at home. Also, there are hundreds of flavors to choose from! I suggest you try the 'Birthday Cake Remix' in their Signature Creations. 

And last but not the least, Starbucks. Starbucks is well known for their coffee and their coolers. Everytime I go to Starbucks, I either get Hot Cappuccino or the Iced Caramel Macchiato. Also, the best part of Starbucks is their service. Whenever I go to Starbucks they always have comfy chairs or couches and the baristas are really jolly all the time. 

Well that's it I hope you guys try the restaurant/cafè/ice-cream parlor I've shown above. 

Hope you have a nice day!

About The Blogger...

Hello Everyone!

Well I haven't much introduced myself in my previous content. So this content will be more of myself.

First thing's first, my name's Bianca Padilla and I was born in the Philippines. I'm 14 years old as of now BUT I'm blowing my candles off on the 14th of February. And as I said in my previous post, I was looking for a new hobby and I spoke to my friend, who used to be a blogger or is still one. And I asked her, how do you start a blog? Or, what do you post on a blog? She explained everything and gave me a few of the best bloggers that she knows. So I started this blog today, which is the 6th of March, 2014. I'm really happy that I asked about blogging since I'm in need of a new hobby and since it's summer and I've got nothing to do. 

Secondly, I have 2 sisters and yes, we live with each other, alongside with my father too. Anyway, this content is more about me, what I like, dislike, etc.

So I'll be talking about the five main things that I like which are:

1. Music

I honestly can't go a day without listening to music because, who doesn't love music?! It gives me happy vibes whenever I'm sad or it makes me want to jump along to it. 

2. Coffee

Ok, I'm a coffee addict. Like almost everyday or every other day I drink coffee. Because it energizes me  and makes me active.

3. Animals

Animals are the BEST thing that has ever existed. I'm a dog lover and my dogs really make me happy. Actually any kind of animals make me happy. 

4. Ice cream

I LOVE ice cream so much. Ice creams always cheer me up when I'm in a bad mood or whenever I'm really, really sad. 

5. Travelling

Travelling is amazing when you do it quite often. To be honest, I'd rather travel while studying (since I'm a student) so at least I have the knowledge while going to other places I haven't been to before. 

Now for my five main dislikes:

1. Spiders 

Spiders are weird and scary and they just creep me out. Trust me, if I ever see a tiny spider on my arm, I get freaked out and I jump up and down. 

2. Horror films

I'm not a big fan of horror films especially when they're bloody. After watching a horror film, I sometimes dream about it or I imagine stuff about the film.

3. Haters

I really dislike haters. Because, why would you waste your time hating on someone while you can live your life on the edge and be totally carefree?

4. Sickness

I dislike it whenever I get sick because it's like you're so dizzy that you can't do anything or you can't even eat! 

5. Peanut Butter

Call me weird but I'm not really a big fan of peanut butter. BUT when you give a PBB&J sandwich, I'd be really happy and I'll love you forever. 

So that's it! I hope this post can help me get more friends so feel free to leave me an email anytime: bcpadilla14@gmail.com
