mmmmm...food!

I really enjoy baking. I didn't have much time to do it while in paid employment, but since leaving work and becoming a stay-at-home-mum I have found that baking at least once a week not only keeps our pantry stocked with tasty treats (that we have full knowledge of their ingredients) at half the price, but is also amazingly therapeutic and fun!

I love trawling the web looking for the next recipe to try my hand at, and am currently sizing up a brownie cupcake recipe which I am so excited about decorating (no judging, boys!). Today however while looking at decoration ideas I stumbled across this website.

Needless to say, I won't be trying these recipes because I enjoy my heart beating and don't particularly want to be married to a 300Kg man. They are, however, incredible!!!! and I have to admit to secretly wanting to taste some of them....

I am very curious as to how one deep fries guacamole, aswell as the myriad dishes incorporating ready made burgers (bun and all!) and the tempura cheesecake had to be concieved while someone was smoking some serious weed!

My little pony

Out of this lot, I think Chewbacca is my favourite.

Testing our Wedding Photo's online

Anyone need a lift?

How awesome is this?



It's a car-sharing network, 12 bucks an hour, cars all over the place.

Now I just need somewhere to go!

(I just signed up but haven't actually used it yet.)

THANKYOU SO MUCH

for my Befelein


Alex, Bron S, Bron W, Dean, Evil, Flit, Gretta, Jeff, Jenny, John, Mattwa, Nicolai, Shari and Sam!

I absolutely love it.

NWA

WHO: Ninjaz with Attitude

WHAT: "Limp Bizkit (without a lame frontman), Judas Priest (without the leather), Eminem (without the boring live show), Faith no more are awesome. Queen inspire us as a live act, also ac/dc and red hot chili peppers. We are the are the concentrated essence of everything that was awesome about these bands and nothing that made them crap."

WHEN: Thurday, I've been told NWA opens the night at 9pm, but that's probably rock n' roll for 9:30 ish. Those of you drawing dicks Thursday evenings should be able to make it.

WHERE (else?): the Lansdowne

WHY: because it will be awesome, and if you're awesome you'll be there.

Happy Birthday SJ

Friday Amusements

I came across this yesterday and got a good bellylaugh out of it.

And I've been meaning to post this for a while. For some reason it reminds me of John. Probably because when he sees them he'll want to make a pair for himself.


And this one is for Sarah to print out and put next to her monitor.

My name is Sarah, I'm an Australian, and I don't believe in Hugh Jackman

OK, just taking a few minutes out from being the resident EC@ insane bitch.

After a day of mind-numbing training in the digit-numbing air conditioned discomfort of the Harbour View hotel yesterday, I spent a suitable evening on the couch catching up on my Oscars from last week. Yes, I taped them and yes, I am still not cool enough to resist the sparkle and the cheese and those oh-so-sentimental montages.

Anyway, in keeping with my annual customary review, albeit over a week late, once again I must re-iterate how freaking cool Jack Nicholson is. And he wasn’t even there this year, as far as I could see.

For the most part, the ladies’ frocks were pretty dull, perhaps as an attempted show of solidarity with all the mortals having strife with the GFC? And maybe it was BECAUSE all the others were so dull, but it seemed to me that Anne Hathaway looked UNBELIEVABLE.

I haven’t loved an oscars dress so much since Michelle Williams and the yellow frill-necked lizard.

Also, yay for Angelina and those beautiful green accessories! (And that beautiful tuxedoed accessory!) My love for her turned to jealousy-fuelled hate for her is doubling back on itself to be love for her again, I think.

Also, I was completely sucked in by the cuteness of those little slumdog kids and their wide-eyed wonderment. Awww! How Swee-heeeet.

Some Monday entertainment for a change

And if that didn't divert your attention from what you should be doing have a read of this gibberish, I just love it that at the end of a four-mile page scroll of utter wibble there is a link to 'page 2'.
