EDIBLE ODERUS

Last week, I sang the praises of my new favorite metal site: Metalcakes.  So since I (unfortunately) had to go to visit my parents’ house for the second weekend in a row, I decided to turn up the fun by trying out one of Kathy’s recipes.  I chose the the Gwar Scumcakes of the Universe.  I’m not even a huge Gwar fan, generally, but this recipe seemed to be the most chocolate-y, and was therefore…the winner.

The only things I had to do different from Kathy’s recipe was use other colored M&Ms besides green, because there weren’t enough in one bag.  I also couldn’t find the green spray she used for the tops, so I just used green sugar sprinkles.  They were pretty bangin’ if I do say so myself.

Another “Am I adopted?” conversation ensued this weekend:

Sister’s friend:  So where did you find the recipe for these?
Me:  It’s a website where this chick creates recipes based on her favorite bands.
Sister’s friend:  So what band were these?
Me:  Gwar.
Sister:  What’s that?  Is that like Nickelback?

…yeah.  That’s almost as bad as the time a few weeks ago when she asked me if Metallica were ‘metal.’  At least we have similar taste in food?
