Elephant in the room - Richard Walters



Calling you to wake
Shouting in my car that's stalled outside
And it's pure coincidence I'm sure
Falling from my mouth, secondary doubts I've found myself in
Can't seem to look you in the eye

And I hope you can see
I'm more than this, this heap at your feet
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to preach?
Control has slipped away from me again

How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes past your face as you drive away from me again
How heavy are these hands?
They're heavier than blood
That rushes to my head as you walk away from me again

Forcing you to speak
Snapping out my voice seems smaller now, it's only whispering my life
Paper cuts in time
I insist you keep these letters here and read them over if you can

And I hope you can see
I'm more than this, this heap at your feet
Who are you to judge me?
Who are you to preach?
Control has slipped away from me again

How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes past your face as you drive away from me again
How heavy are my hands?
They're heavier than blood
That rushes to my head as I will walk away from here again

How heavy are these words?
They're heavier than air
That rushes to my face as you turn away from me again
How heavy are these words, heavier than time
That rushes past your face as you would turn to walk away again.

Chocolate + Banana cinnamon pancakes

Is it too cold on a saturday morning to go out? Want a plate of warm home cooked breakfast? Why not make some Chocolate + Banana cinnamon PANCAKES!!

This especially applies to all you students out there. This is easy to make and easy to eat, and I guaranty that this will turn your gloomy saturday morning upside down :)

Equipments and Ingredients needed:
A stove

Equipments:
-a Frying Pan
-Measuring Cups/ Measuring Jug
-Measuring Spoons
-a Spatula
-a Whisk
-a Bowl(preferably glass)
-a Knife
-a Chopping Board
-a Butter Knife

Ingredients{makes 6 pancakes}:
- 1 cup[250ml] of Pancake Mix(can be found at your local supermarket)
- 1/2 cup[125ml] of Milk
- 1 banana
- 2 eggs
- 1/8 tsp of Cinnamon powder
- a handFUL of Chocolate chips
- butter to grease frying pan
- Syrup for your pancakes(preferably not golden syrup)

my choice of chocolate chips. [HERSHEY'S CHIPITS]

Step 1: Combine Pancake mix, eggs, milk and cinnamon into the bowl and whisk.

Step 2: Chop banana into slices and then into small bits.

Step 3: Add banana into mixture and whisk gently to keep banana pieces in tact.
-At this point, add 1/3 of your handFUL of chocolate chips into the mixture.

Step 4: Use a ladle/scoop OR simply just pour a small proportion of the mixture into your HEATED and OILED frying pan. The butter will sizzle but do not worry :)


Step 5 [when to flip?] : When you notice that bubbles start appearing and holes start forming, it will be time for you to FLIP the pancake. Please, USE A SPATULA.

Step 6: While you are waiting for your pancake to cook, place another 1/3 of your handFUL of chocolate chips on the serving plate.

Step 7: Take your first piece of cooked pancake off the frying pan and place it on your serving plate, on top of the chocolate chips ;). Repeat steps 4, 5 & 6 until all the mixture is used up. As you plate each pancake, place several chocolate chips on top of each piece.
Step 8: Once all the pancakes are stacked and the handFUL of chocolate chips is used up, the last thing to do is to add your SYRUP.
!Don't forget to have your pancakes with a glass of milk or juice.
This is what I call home made pancakes :D


And there you go, only 8 simple steps!

Have a good day! :)

Paint

It's the weekend :) I can catch up on some sleep, YES! Got a lot to do this weekend though. I'm gonna be painting a piece for the first time! haha Anyone who knows me know that I cannot draw or paint or do anything of that kind, so this should be interesting. Need plenty of inspiration this weekend, time to head to the old port! The port is a 10 minute walk from my place which is so great, I'm so glad. It's by far my favourite place in Montreal. The atmosphere and character of the port is just something else.

To Mr. Inspirational,
From time to time, I wonder how you're doing. How your career is moving along and how you're doing in general. This is one of those times :)
