Valentines day Brownies :)


Marbled Red Velvet Cheesecake Brownies

Yield: 16 hearts

ingredients:

Red Velvet Layer:
3 1/4 cups flour
2 1/4 cups granulated sugar
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon baking powder
3 large eggs
1 cup vegetable oil
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon red food coloring
2 teaspoons white vinegar
2 tablespoons milk
Cheesecake Layer:
2 8oz packages cream cheese, softened
3/4 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs
2 teaspoons vanilla

directions:

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13 x 18 jelly roll pan with butter or spray with Baker's Joy.
In large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, cocoa powder, salt, and baking powder. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk together eggs, vegetable oil, vanilla extract, red food coloring, and white vinegar.
Combine the dry and wet ingredients, until completely combined. The batter will be a really thick, almost moldable texture...but don't worry, that's what you want. Remove 3/4 cup of the batter and place it in a medium bowl. Whisk in the 2 tablespoons of milk (into the 3/4 cup of batter you just took out). Set aside the 3/4 cup batter.
Pour the remaining batter into the prepared jelly roll pan. Using a spatula, smooth out the batter to reach all the edges.
Now, in your stand mixer, beat cream cheese and sugar until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add eggs and vanilla, beating until combined and there are no lumps. Pour the cream cheese mixture on top of the red velvet layer and smooth mixture till it reaches all the edges.
Drop spoonfuls of the remaining red velvet batter (that you mixed with milk) onto the top of the cheesecake layer. Drag the tip of a knife through the red velvet and the cheesecake layers to create swirls.
Bake for 30 minutes, rotating half way through, or just until the center is set and it no longer jiggles. Let cool completely on a wire rack before cutting. Use a medium sized heart cookie cutter to create the perfect Valentine's Day treat!

what's the point really

Well I'm feeling down again and I don't want to burdened anyone with my problems so here I go.


I went to jasmine's class yesterday. I cried. But not a lot.


She wwas telling is about auditions.

She made me realize something

I'm never going to use dance

I'm not good enough for a company. And I don't think I would be good enough for college classes so what's the point. I would hate being a dance teacher so there is no career choice.


She made me realize a lot. Like how I don't work as hard as I can. Or how I would suck at auditions.


She also made me realize that I shouldnt do the talent show. I would make fool of myself. A complete fool.


And today, mom said: you aren't doing your exercises are you. You've given up


So I basically told her yes. Because I have.

there is no way i could ever fix my back.


Reasons:

I'm almost finished growing

Doctor froggley is a good chiropractor but there isn't much he can do

The type of scoliosis is one that doesn't react well to therepy, because of the ribcage.


How I'm feeling.



Like a piece of crap.

I really want to die.


remedy:

Listen to other peoples problems so I can see that people have it worse than me. And so I will stop pitying myself
