princessmel @princessmel (670) • Canada 26 Jan 09

i love to bake. everytime i make cake though, it comes out tasting a little bit too dry even when i use a cake mix. Does anyone have any tips for when i make cake to have it come out a little bit moister and not as heavy?

I just watched Eagle Eye yesterday. I think its a very nice science fiction that keeps you glued to the screen to the very climax of the movie. I am just curious to know what is the last movie you watch....

phaedrah I just saw "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" a few days ago. I thought it was very good. I must confess though, I'd pretty much pay to watch Mr. Pitt cross the street!
