So recently I have been a really lazy blogger. But I have a perfectly reasonable explanation which is as follows:
I have been really sick with a flu that has attacked my limbs, including arms which totally sucked. It also gave me a headache whenever I used the computer or watched television for over 15 minutes.
On the plus side, while I haven't been sick OR blogging I have found some pretty good blogs, it makes me feel really happy whenever I do. One of the blogs is by a girl named Jessica Hart, she is an Australian model who lives in NYC. If you have ever watched The City then you would probably notice her as "Jessica - Pottsy's Girlfriend" Pottsy being a bandmate of Jay's. Maybe you wouldn't have even noticed her from there and maybe that is me paying way to much attention to a show! Anyway I love her because she has incredible style.

(Rum Balls)
TO MAKE RUM BALLS:
250g Nice biscuits
3 tablespoons cocoa powder
1/2 cup desiccated coconut
395g can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (1 teaspoon natural vanilla essence)
1 1/2 tablespoons rum
3/4 cup desiccated coconut, for coating
Place biscuits and cocoa in a food processor or blender and crush biscuits very finely.
If you used a blender, pour the crushed biscuit and cocoa mixture into a large bowl and stir in the remaining ingredients (except the coconut for coating).
If you used a food processor, you can add the 1/2 cup coconut, condensed milk, vanilla and rum to the biscuit crumbs and process until the mixture is well combined. Then add the sultanas and process on very low speed until just combined.
Place mixture in refrigerator or freezer until it is firm enough to roll into balls (about 30 minutes in the refrigerator). If the mixture is too soft, it will be sticky and difficult to roll properly and the rum balls will not hold their shape.
