A 'Jolly' Good Day.

No first thing is first i need to explain my title but before that i will explain what i did. On Thursday i paid a trip to Pippa's house to hang out. Now Pippa's surname is Jolly, Pretty hip if you ask me so it seemed almost fitting i had that as my title.

So i got the 10 o'clock bus to Totnes train station to meet Pippa so she would give me a lift to her home in Modbury. This was like a 20 minute drive or something like that i didn't really keep time, But when we arrived at her house she said this "Don't judge me". Reason behind this she lives in a huge house with like 5 bathrooms (i reckon its actually only 4 but you get the idea) and her kitchen was massive with 2 sinks, which she said "Ones for washing dishes and the others for washing hands and shoes".

Cooking time. At this point we started making the Cherry Cake which we decided on earlier, for the most half i watched as she did all the work as i don't really know what to do but she found me a job. Cutting Cherries, This job was actually quite awkward as all the Cherries where sticky which made my job annoying, after cutting up all the cherries Pippa was adding eggs to the cake mixture, i commented on how she was breaking the eggs difficultly and i said i could do them much better the challenge as presented before me and i showed her how to break them like a pro.

Well while the cake was in the over we watched a movie, this movie being Ice Age 3, as i hadn't see it, and half way threw the movie the cake had finished cooking and came out looking like this.
Yep all the cheeries sank to the bottom of the cake and cooked there, i was annoyed at this but the cake still tasted awesome so my annoyance soon dissipated.

More food you say. Lunch time soon rolled around (this is where i sound like a massive pig) i had 2 sandwiches 1 bacon and 1 sausages(or snosages if your Pippa) the bacon sandwich was awesome Pippa thought it would be wise to use the rest of the bacon and put it in my sandwich so i had a bacon sandwich with 4 rations of bacon in it (greatest sandwich ever).

After lunch and movie finished we went on a walk around Modbury which is apparently not that big and took like 5 minutes in total maybe more, When we returned to the house we played Jenga like cool people and the results where Ricky 2 Pippa !. Yep i'm that good at jenga. We then watched the Bee Movie and not before long it had gotten dark which meant i had to soon be heading home.

All in all it was a good day, and Pippa lives in a pretty sweet house.

  2. You need to wash all the sticky syrup off of the cherries & then dry them on kitchen paper. Then they won't sink
