Monstercake!

Thanks to Roomie for letting me borrow her lovely sweater.


On thursday we went on a gallery trip to London. A lot of walking it was, and a lot of art as well. After that I, for one, was pretty exhausted, but luckily we had decided to order some Chinese takeaway instead of starting to cook something ourselves around 8 o'clock. It was so good. We were invited to go to a Halloween costume houseparty in the evening. Me and Roomie, we were so tired we decided we probably wouldn't stay for too long. Still, we managed to stay for a bit after midnight. Some of the costumes were really good. I was dressed as insomnia, as you can clearly see from the illustration above, just a slight case of "I have limited props, time and energy to fashion a decent outfit from thin air"


Next day we baked a monster cake:



Me and Roomie baked the cake itself, and then Finnish Friend joined in to help with the decoration. It's a pumpkin cake, very similar to carrot cake, except that this one has a bit of orange in the batter. It's very good, I can tell you. While tasting the cake we watched Nosferatu (1922), grandfather of numerous vampire (and horror) films.



The sound and music in it was really interesting and diverse.




Yesterday we watched Time Masters (Maitres du Temps) (1982). It wasn't that good. Some interesting ideas, but a rather dull storyline, and some really bugging visual elements, mainly unsettling He-Man faces:




Hmm. Anyway, that's it for now. Take care y'all.
