cocoa does NOT equal hot chocolate powder

[tehluggage]

So I learned something new today. When baking a cake, instant hot chocolate powder is *not* an acceptable substitute for cocoa. Yeah, okay, I had enough cocoa left for the actual cake, but I ran out just when I needed it for the sauce.

Cake tasted fine, the sauce was kind of funky. So yeah, won't be doing *that* again.


In other news, I really really don't want to cut my hair, but I think it might be necessary kind of soon. It's over two feet long and thicker than my wrist, and it's getting so damn *heavy*... Bleah. Won't be cutting it anytime soon, but I'm starting to entertain the possibility...
