1 box devil's food cake mix
1/3 cup oil
2 eggs
sugar
hershey's treasures (half milk/half dark)
preheat 350. mix top three ingredients (hard to mix, there's still powder left). roll into balls, roll the balls into the sugar. cook 8-10 minutes (on the less done side). cut treasures in half and top on cookies right after they are taken out of the oven.
i brought these treats to a dinner tonight hosted by another social work student.
she is indian, so she served indian food. i had too much wine and the indian food was very spicy... so spicy, in fact, that it caused hiccups. i was unaware that spicy foods can cause hiccups, but apparently it does. so, i am sitting, with hiccups, my face is turning red and sweating and i'm feeling a bit woozy... this was an internally embarassing few minutes.
they all loved the cookies. i learned about a secret bar. i learned that people my age usually spend most of their time drinking or having sex. such a foreign lifestyle to me!
left at 11:30pm with rosie, my new friend. waited for a bus for 40 minutes (while 3 buses stopped by the stop across the street). walk a ways. caught a cab. only had debit. cabbie spoke little english, but communicated his disgruntledness quite well. tipped him well. $10 for less than two miles... argh.
but... i'm glad i did it. i continue to try and say yes to most things these days so i can meet new people and gather experiences. i continue to be intrigued by where that leads.
