You know in Mean Girls when Cady Heron can’t stop talking about Regina George and the words just keep coming up like “word vomit?” Well that is what has happened to my husband since Fortnight was released.
If he’s not playing Fortnight, he is watching a stream. If he is not watching a stream, he is talking about Fortnight with his friends. And most commonly he is doing all three, at the same time. Funny since he can’t multitask anything else…hmm!
When we go out to dinner with friends I secretly guess how long it will take for him to bring up something Fortnight related. Seriously y’all, what are we going to do?!
There have been some benefits to Fortnight. He has reconnected with some old friends. He uses it to decompress after a long day of work. He completes his chores quicker knowing that he can play Fortnight after.
But as with everything, moderation is key!
It’s because of this that I now know September 12 is National Video Game Day. And any holidays calls for cake, right?
Well this one is the easiest recipe ever—yellow Space Cake!
Growing up we always called this recipe “Space Cake” because each slice is light and airy. Obviously nowadays Space Cakes are the more common term for cakes made with cannabis. Please note that this recipe does not contain any marijuana or derivatives.
Though either way I’m sure it could satisfy some those munchies! :)
Each bite is like eating the fluffiest, most softest cloud. But it’s a cake. A cake come from space to do a heavenly dance on our taste buds.
The cinnamon-sugar sprinkled on top just puts it over the top. Drooling
As always I’d love to see your creations, remember to tag #heystudoist on IG.
