Baking For Your Blog

So, I was on a site that shall be named "stick-it-note-trest" and I went to one of the links for a recipe of something (which I usually do because I am TRYING to lose weight and the best way NOT to do that is by going on "stick-it-note-trest" and look at all the amazing fatty food that I COULD be making) and it was a blog with a recipe for something with crisco, 2 sugars, egg, salt, blah blah and blah and the silly person that writes the blog put all the ingredients into separate bowls.  EIGHT BOWLS. Now, considering you don't wash the bowls containing the white sugar, oatmeal, or water, you still have to clean FIVE bowls plus the ONE you mix it all together in and then she has the audacity to put each ingredient for frosting into SIX separate bowls (by now she has run out of glass bowls and had to use 3 wooden bowls lol).  Now its the TWELVE bowls PLUS the ONE to mix the frosting PLUS the ONE pan to bake it in, she was to wash FOURTEEN things PLUS all the mixing stuff, spoons, measuring cups and spoons all just to show everyone what all the ingredients look like before they went into the delicious looking thing.  That is way too much.  I sure hope it was delicious.  If anyone has done this before, please explain to me WHY.

We are the very proud owners of a new fish tank and 14 fish.  It has taken us a lot of fish to get to what we have though.  4 sharks, 2 sunburst, 1 pregnant mickey mouse (livebearing), a silver tetra, and a striped thing is what we started with.  All but 1 sunburst died.  We now have 5 zebras named Z,E,B,R, and A.  4 black skirt tetras named Merlin,  Chunky, and the other 2 we can't tell the difference between so they are nameless.  A Betta named Lucky.  A Goramy named Elvis (because when I put him in the car, I thought he was leaning one way but he fell over and got "all shook up"). 2 Sunbursts named Ari and Zona. and a frog named Polly Waag.  We have killed a lot of fish (non on purpose) to get where we are but are thankful for the 2 week return policy of PetSmart and what we have learned about setting up a fish tank.

Size comparison
Lucky (because he is lucky we bought him...we saw him in a tank being nice to the other fish so we figured he would be okay in our tank)
