Me and My Chocolate Sunday

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory is my favourite Roald Dahl story. Put it into Tim Burton's hands, and you get a wonderful movie.



Every scene is so beautiful to look at.
Johnny Depp looks like a girl.
And the Oompa-Loompas are hilarious.

I won't compare it to the movie made many years ago, because each has its own merits. But I enjoyed this version tremendously. Maybe it's because I love all things Tim Burton (ooooh, BIG FISH! I loved BIG FISH! And Nightmare Before Christmas!)

Inspired by the movie, I went home to bake a Flourless Chocolate Cake. The cake turned out yummy and I made extra creamy chocolate frosting to go with it.



I licked up all the raw batter in the mixing bowl after the cake went into the oven and my tummy went a-rumbling in a big way.

I guess raw eggs (albeit masked in chocolate) don't agree with me.
