mmm pancakes

I was a good wifey today. I thought to myself “You know what Tash, you’ve never cooked Jason breakfast” Cool hehehe so I surprised him with pancakes with maple syrup & strawberries this morning! They weren’t too bad either. It was also a nice little going away pressie because he is gone for a week, which isn’t too bad since he usually goes away for a couple of weeks at a time! Hopefully we wont be going away to much while I’m pregnant, I don’t want him to miss anything! I’ve already said I’d abuse, (and I really mean I will go off my nutter) if he gets sent away anywhere near when I’m due! Heads will fly!
On a side note when I was making pancakes I had a random little blob of mix make a face! So I called him Bob lol Here is Bob, say hi… (click for larger view)

I lol’d… yes I say lol. I will eventually get around to making my own layout, I just really haven’t been feeling it lately Frown I’ve been getting bored really easily of layouts *sigh* one day I will make another *nods reassuringly*

I’ve been buying baby things *squeeeee* lol I’m so happy since I found out the gender! I love going into shops and looking at all the cute baby stuff, like in Target I saw the cuuuuutest jumpsuit, it’s a bear, so it has a hood with ears and eyes and a little nose and it has a tail *awwweee* I loves it! I brought the bedding, some toys and books, general stuff like that xD I have to stop though, I haven’t even had my baby shower yet lol.

Been Keeping Busy

The cheesecake was absolutely fantastic! Everyone loved it and said they want me to bring more in :love: I love praise, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy haha. If anyone wants the recipe I used it’s here. At work last week we also did the Big Breakfast to raise money for the Australian Thyroid Foundation. Basically everyone had to bring in a plate of something and donate some money to participate. I made Caramel Slice which was also successful Angel I’ve been having a bit of fun baking lately, I was thinking next I would try a black forrest cake *rubs belly* lol.

Last weekend I went to the Bra Expo with Kalli and I got some fantastic items! Two that I am proud of are 2 corset’s at $150 each but I got them for $15 each! Hells yeah >Smile I love getting a good bargain. Jason will be pleased when he comes home LOL Kalli and I were there for over 4 hours as well! There was so much to look at. But it was a little disappointing as Kalli and I are both… amply busted… and even at a bra expo we were hard pressed to find pretty bras in our size. Though like I said it was far more fruitful than when you normally go into a lingerie shop.

I created I new layout for Addicted Listings because I think the first one looked a bit unprofessional. I can see how much the internet has changed since I was last active on 2007, I remember when cliques, directories and plugboards were an absolute must have! And there really isn’t that many personal sites around anymore either Sad or maybe I lost my knack Wink I’ve also added some recipes in Visitor. I plan on expanding on that greatly when I get around to it. One day. Maybe lol. I also want to add WordPress layouts for people to use but I kinda lost my will to design when a friend wrecked my external HDD which had ALL of my web design on it Frown

Another week gone

Yes another day another dollar. Damn my life is exciting, woohoo >_> I do feel kinda special though, I got given a ‘leadership’ task to do on Monday so I get to say “You there, do this!” while I sit back and chillax lol no I wouldn’t do that, I wouldn’t learn anything! Considering I don’t actually know how to do it I reckon I’ll put myself right in there ^_^ Sorry I can’t really say what it is, suffice to say it involves computers.

Tomorrow I am going to make a cheesecake from scratch :s The recipe I’ll be using is from here. Since Jason’s been gone I’ve been so bored at home alone, and not being a very social creature (generally sucking at conversation with strangers) I’ve been trying new things to keep me occupied. I started with cupcakes, using one of those post mixes you get from the super market. Absolutely delicious :love: I love vanilla cupcakes and they had rainbow sprinkles on top! I took them in to work (because I will get fat if I eat everything I intend on baking lol) and they were pretty successful, so I’ve decided I’m going to learn how to bake deliciousness and test it out on the guys at work Grin
SO, cheesecake. I made one a few days ago and it was a complete fail. Well, technically it was successful, it was just… yuck, it had absolutely no flavour. It was taste failure! Post mix fail :emo: never again! Hence why I went searching the net for a recipe Wink So tomorrow I am going to again attempt a delicious flavoursome vanilleriffic cheesecake (: I’ll take pics and post them if I remember Grin I wanted to put strawberries on top but (I’m assuming perhaps because tomorrow is Mothers Day) there was not a single strawberry in sight! Oh well, maybe I can find some tomorrow when I go see Ironman 2 with Kalli!!!

Now that is going to be fun! We’re going to meet up for lunch at Hogs Breathe Cafe (omg best steaks!) get completely smashed on cocktails than go watch the movie! mmmm I love cocktails! I plan on putting up recipes for my fav’s under visitors one day when I get around to it Wink

On a quick (and random) note, I had a feeling of nostalgia and absolutely had to get Spice Girls first Album Spice d-_-b omg I still remember ALL the words to ALL the songs Blush I loved the Spice Girls so much when I was younger. Damn they were good back the day *reminisces about childhood* (:
