The situation here has been so intense that every news update I got today made me so nervous and jittery, sending my heart palpitating a thousand miles and literally making me sick to my stomach.
In the later part of the evening, I then decided that best thing to do to calm myself down is bake. As Silver Bullet put it when he looked at me grinning away bemused, “extraordinary circumstances calls for an extraordinary measures, and hence, the extraordinary comfort food for dessert”.
For me though, it really was very therapeutic; taking me less than 40 minutes (including baking time) to get it all done.The brownie smelled so heavenly as it baked away in my tiny oven. The effort was well worth it as the brownie turned out to be quite yummy. It is rich, quite moist and crumbles in the mouth. I could not be any happier.
Not bad for something that was done first time in a whim and under a very stressful circumstance, I must say!

For those of you wondering where the danger zones in Bangkok are, here’s the link to give you a perspective of happenings.
Is it still safe to be travelling to Bangkok? At this point, I’ll say A.V.O.I.D Bangkok at all cost. The city centre is where the current action is and we just don’t know how widespread this is going to get.
It really is not all peaches and cream here and NO, this time, the media is not hyping it up.

Now tell me this isn’t suicidal?! Are these people frigging insane?! I really question what the hell is really wrong with these people, putting their child up there, knowing full well that their lives and safety are hanging by a piece of thread.

Red Baby crying after explosions heard at tyre barricades under expressway
No surprises who these people will blame if this kid gets hit by a bullet. It’s not like the haven’t been warned to stay away from the area. Morons!
