double double NO NO

well today i got my results from the internal interviews i had...

i didnt get either job :(

i was told that i interviewed great and my resume was fantastic .. but there was someone better... aint that a kick in the pants :(

i guess now i will try next year :)

thats not too far off... i look forward to seeing whats happening actually.. big changes..

I was feeling a bit down earlier but i always bounce back.

sorry for not posting recently.. its been hectic at work

Dear Prudence.... won't you come out to play ?

Well it's that time of year again.... in a few days time it'll be Christmas and all through the house not a creature is stirring not even a mouse..

oh wait that's not a mouse, that's my family screaming at each other about things that are totally pointless.

Anyway this year my sister is coming home from Italy where she has lived for the past year and she is back for about 3 weeks then she goes home.

It will be really good to see her as we are the two oldest and we kinda grew up together.. but I just know that my mother is going to make it all about her.

Roll out the red carpet her she comes !! ... it's miss CO-DEPENDANT !! YAY !!

People say i'm bitter, but I'm really not.

We kinda grew apart a few yrs ago and we don't really have anything in common so I let her do her thing... this of course to her means I'm ignoring her.

Oh what i would give to skip this years xmas at my mother's house.

I'll get through it.. i have my Bundy n coke :)

i wanna be pop...ular

when hunger strikes at 5am... and there is nothing else to do..
we turn to the humble poptart !

Well actually we don't seeing as they aren't readily avaiable here in Oz.

You can find em at some speciality stores but I think there is only about 3 in Brisbane.

Anyway so I still had some left over and after my first attempt at cooking them, I went away for a few mins and went back to find blackend poptarts :( such a waste.

Silly old me pulled em straight out of the toaster and I have now officially experienced my first poptart blister..on my little fingers :(

Those little things are like lava..

Anyway i re-cooked a new set and they didnt burn and they were delicious.. no wonder Americans are so fat if they think this is breakfast food for kids...

Sugary fruit.. wrapped in sugar pastry with sugar spinkled on top and sugar frosting with sprinkles... mmmmmmmmm

But it's ok kids... there was fruit in there too..

It said so on the box..

lets try this again....

ok kiddies... i'm gonna try to post this again...

it's the video that disturbed me the other night... I already hated Perez Hilton but now i really hate him..

welcome to my bathroom....

hmmm ...
I can see my sexy neighbour laying on his bed in his undies from my bathroom window... when he has his light on i can see everything...

Is it always true that if i can see him he can see me ?

My window is about 2 storeys higher than him....

I guess i'll shift my focus to something else.....

hellooooooooooo M&M's... you look good enough to eat !

apologies...

sorry for the previous post....
i can't seem to attach a video.. i'm still working this blog thing out.

anyway it was a video of Perez Hilton and a song called ' the clap '

check it out on youtube...very scary

clap your hands kids....

For the first time in a while I have no words to describe this...

sunshine, lollipops and....

As a last minute decision by my friend Liz we went to the 'beach' at Southbank.

It's a man made beach on the river overlooking the city.. its quite nice :)

So i thought I'd get a little sun to try and get some colour back since the last time i had colour was in July.

Yeah... sunscreen woulda been a better idea..

I'm a bit toasted.. and while it wasnt bad then.. it's always worse the next day.

No photos needed of the sunburn.

I'm going back to Canada where the sun is not as harsh...

this wasn't in the brochure...

today has gone straight to hell....

get out of my way....

i want tomorrow to be here already.

cooking always makes me feel better...

i need a drink tonight... donations accepted :)

its my party and i'll pan sear if i want to...

I am planning a fabulous dinner party for my friends this saturday night.

As soon as I thought of the idea , different meals ran through my head...

garlic prawns on a piece of pan fried polenta with mini potato medallions and for main morrocan chicken with spiced couscous with a full bodied red wine.

All this within 1 minute and i had planned my dinner...

maybe I am working in the wrong idustry....

Dessert is yet to be advised... but believe me.. It'll be worth it

which came first ?

I am currently on late shifts for work which means a late lunch. Due to this fact I am not eating dinner at night before bed, and I wake up starving the next morning.

This happened today.

One of my favourite things to eat for late breakfast/morning tea is Subway.

My favourite thing to eat at Subway is my Chicken and Egg sandwich with mayo, cheese and BBQ sauce...

the mother and its unborn foetus together again....

before you judge try it....

Its like an Incesttuous orgy of flavour.

An open letter to Aaron's mum...

Dear Aaron's mum,

Christmas decorations should not be put up before December 1st...

just my opinion....

Oh and please let Aaron come to Australia next year at Christmas time cos the weather is so much nicer here... he is 27 yrs old.. time to cut the cord.

Love
