Greetings, my sweet Menses Maidens. My horngriness usually calls for snacks of the salt and the savory varieties, but today I have put on my baking mask (a.k.a. a hockey mask with a printout of Martha Stewart Scotch-taped to it) to make you a sweet ‘lil dessert. It’s rare for the sugar demon to possess me, but when it does, I usually want cake. Fuck your pastries, sashay away from your pies, I don’t care if it’s nobody’s birthday — just GIMME DA CAKE.
Thankfully, the gods of Pinterest heard the cries of the lazy (me) and have invented the beauty of the mug cake. It’s a simple way to get your sweet tooth on when you don’t have the time to go full-on Suzy Homemaker status or when you can’t even be bothered to pick up one of those single slices of “bachelorette cakes” at your grocery store. Making one of these is so much more satisfying than eating a whole sleeve of Oreos (something Oprah apparently did one time back in the days when she used to get stoned.)
You’re welcome, ovaries!
