shiny things and food

stalkerbunnyI'm starting to accumulate a build-up of fanart that I should make a post of sometime soon... just need to be in the right mood for that.
I don't recall if I've mentioned I've acquired a fondness for nail polish after shunning it for years= ? Today, I happened to see that H&M is having an almost 50% sale on my favourite brand of nail polish (of
the two I've actually tried *cough*) so I went over there to get a colour I've been coveting for a while.
Or rather, I've been trying to decide between several different bright/pale greens. In the end I decided this blue green was more likely to match other stuff I have/might acquire and also it's called Atlantis which reminds me of the Time Monster (and therefore the Worst OTP) and makes me gleeful.
Collection so far:
From right: marshmallow, atlantis, silk road, and also a bunch of Depend polishes. The first one, which is transparent with rainbow sparkles is quite nice, and the other two I was a bit disappointed with, but they might work with something beneath them...
Next I think I might get a matte top coat with the rest of my birthday gift card monies. I also still need a nice blue that isn't sparkly because oftardis reasons...
And then later I made dessert. Tried making a cup chocolate cake and fake banana ice cream* the other day and 1)the cake turned out like a chocolatey sponge (yuk) 2)the bananacream was ok but there was too much of it so today I just made the browney and a smaller portion of bananacream with no chocolate in it.
Not sure it's the prettiest dessert ever but tasted ok.
*Just used bananas and milk.
EDIT: Almost forgot, I found out about this music video yesterday from Nostalgia Chick's top 10 music videos of the 90s-video, and it is very lovely:
And reminded me of Coldplay's video for Strawberry Swing which is less epic but rather cute still:

Date: 2013-05-08 03:21 pm (UTC)The 90s truly were the golden age of the music video. That was back when I actually used to watch MTV...and back when MTV actually played music videos instead of just TV shows about teenagers who are either pregnant or werewolves (though thankfully not pregnant werewolves.)
