Off to Palmie for the weekend.

Isy making a train with his mum and Fez in the sun.
Saturday 11 April 2009
I am fascinated by Fez’s dewclaws.

Extra toes on Fez
Sunday 12 April 2009
I have a photoshoot with Neil’s niece Tayla. She is very photogenic!

Fez looking all innocent-puppy-like.

...and what?
Tuesday 14 April 2009
Feeling extremely tired and quite nauseated so off sick today. No photo. This project is going to take aaages to complete.
Wednesday 15 April 2009
My plan to go to bed early fails. It doesn’t help that I forget about taking a photo until after I get into bed.

Way past my bedtime

Thursday 2 April 2009
It’s a lovely evening and you can see the half moon.

A clear half moon
Friday 3 April 2009
Morning tea is provided by our manager today. The icing on the carrot cake is pretty impressive. Too rich to have though.

A serve of vegetables.
Saturday 4 April 2009
We had planned to build a dog house but if you can get one for the same price as the cost of materials, then you may as well be lazy.

Fez's new Snoopy-style house.
Sunday 5 April 2009
We finally make it to the Sunday market – first time in probably a year!

Victoria Street markets
Monday 6 April 2009
I make stir fry with the Chinese vegies we got at the Sunday market.

Good for your Five a Day.
Tuesday 7 April 2009
My bud Carly is visiting from England. We take her for a Thai dinner, then bowling.

Cheese!
Wednesday 3 April 2009
I roll out of bed after remembering I hadn’t taken a photo yet. So what’s around… this cute little painting we got in Venice will do.

The result of clicking and dragging the Task Manager while your computer is crashing.

Yay for Windows.
Friday 27 March 2009
The hubby askes me to make some beer labels for his home brew. I have lots of fun, including putting the notes “Unknown % alcohol” and “May cause pregnancy” in small print.

The draught may cause pregnancy.
Saturday 28 March 2009
My cousin is tiny, even smaller than me. Compare her with the smallest watermelon *ever*.

So tiny!
Sunday 29 March 2009
Easter eggs to celebrate the birth of the Easter Bunny.

Mmm chocolate.
Monday 30 March 2009
The boys hogged the hubby’s MAME machine all weekend, so finally I get to take a picture of it in all its glory.
Took several months for the hubby and his mate to build this but completely worth it.

Wooh!
Tuesday 31 March 2009
Morning sickness has started. I have to keep crackers and rasins next to my bed so I can nibble at anytime necessary. I feel a little guilty waking up the hubby with crunching at 2am though…

Necessities on my bedside
Wednesday 1 March 2009
If you haven’t yet noticed, there are a few similarities in my and Ms Constantine’s photos this week. I even have a blood test photo (for pregnancy reasons). My plaster is shaped like a cross so it’s better than Ms Constantine’s :p

I should've drawn a skull to go with the cross
Project 365: Week 12
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
Thursday 19 March 2009
Ok, so it’s another day that I forget to take a picture. Doesn’t say anywhere that I have to start all over again (correct me if I’m wrong), so I’ll just continue attempting to take a picture each day :)
Friday 20 March 2009
A belated St Patrick’s Day lunch at work. Lots of green.
Also, it’s an exciting day today, but will wait a few days before getting too excited.

Green cupcakes! With a "leprechaun surprise" inside.
Saturday 21 March 2009
What have we here…? I believe it’s positive again – just like Friday. Woo! I can get a little more excited now.

A positive moment
Sunday 22 March 2009
Making trifle with left-over cupcakes. (They’re only left-over because I didn’t have time to ice them so they were frozen instead.)

Much tastier once the jelly, custard, cream and chocolate are added!
Monday 23 March 2009
Super excited now things are confirmed with the doctor. Apart from that, today is not very eventful. So I take a photo of the very large painting I made for our lounge. It’s taller than I am.

Lotus painting
Tuesday 24 March 2009
I get some lovely gifts from a lovely workmate. It’s so nice to own some baby things!

Just look at those Pooh socks! Aww!
Wednesday 25 March 2009
Trying to eat more vegies, so it’s spag bol with frozen vege and salad – yum.

Hearty meal

Wilson $3 parking. Look closer. It’s for half an hour. And what kicked me in the guts more was that on a Saturday Sunday I parked here assuming (stupidly) that it was one of the Wilson $3-all-day weekend parking lots. Nope. At least I only forked out $6 that day – imagine if I had stayed the whole day!

Cheeky signage! Grr.
Friday 13 March 2009
We go to Bowlarama in Newtown after work for a couple games. I get a strike on the first bowl of the evening. That is in no way a reflection on the rest of the game.

Bowling balls at Bowlarama
Saturday 14 March 2009
We head to Palmie this morning. As usual I don’t get up early enough for breakfast, so it’s Mc Donald’s for breakfast. No complaints though.

Mmm healthy
Sunday 15 March 2009
My sister-in-law’s Jack Russell had puppies last month. They are uber cute. I would’ve taken this big ball of kawiiness if it wasn’t already taken. Instead I am adopting the runt – the less psychotic of the other two.

Awww!
Monday 16 March 2009
Time for some more cupcake paintings.

Painting in progress
Tuesday 17 March 2009
It’s bowling night with work again. This time we go to Bowlarama (seeing as it’s two games for one on Tuesdays). It’s a fine night and I walk home in a calming sunset.

View from outside my house of the hills in the Eastern suburbs
Wednesday 18 March 2009
We decide it’s time to do some grocery shopping. The weather decides it’s time for some rain.

You can stand under my um-barella
Project 365: Week 10
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
Thursday 5 March 2009
After watching Watchmen we walk home, going past the Century City Ho. Tonight all the letters are there but the “o” isn’t lit. One day they’ll get it right.

At least it's not a ho anymore
Friday 6 March 2009
One hot day I left this candle on the window sill. It softened so much that it bent over under its own weight. Now it’s just decorative because lighting it would make a huge mess.

Not suitable as a candle
Saturday 7 March 2009
My new iPod Nano finally has songs on it.

It makes the bus rides each day a little nicer
Sunday 8 March 2009
Lunch with some lady friends at Sweet Mother’s Kitchen. Their service is still meh but the curly fries are good.
By the way, if you get one of their sweet pies and they ask if you want cream, yoghurt or ice cream with it, don’t expect the ice cream to be free! The other two are included in the price but the ice cream will cost you an extra $2 (regardless of whether they tell you that or not).

One curly fry
Monday 9 March 2009
I am off sick today. At least I manage to do something creative so the day isn’t a total waste.
I find out that Ms Constantine is also off sick. (For the record, our absences were purely coincidental.)

One of my cupcake paintings
Tuesday 10 March 2009
Another one of those days where I almost fail this project. Out of desperation I take a photo of anything that is around me. This is one of our coasters.

Amen to that!
Wednesday 11 March 2009
It’s cold today. Time for boots again. Winter – *sigh*.

These boots were made for walking - but only short distances

Thursday 26 February 2009
Shooters after work for some drinks, nibbles and pool. One of my nicknames is monkey, so I had to take this picture of their cocktail menu.

Is the menu trying to say something?
Friday 27 February 2009
I adopt a new soft toy at work. I name him Ping and he wears a head band that says “Ichiban” on it (meaning “Number one” in Japanese).

Ping makes his home on my desk
Saturday 28 February 2009
We fly to Auckland for a three-day weekend. Before we leave, I cut the hubby’s hair in a hurry. I also cut my finger for the first time ever while cutting hair. Ouch. I now have a nice v-shaped flap, which is slowly healing.

"v" for "very silly"
Sunday 1 March 2009
My friends Ryan and Nicola have their engagement party today. It’s an afternoon tea with lots of goodies including these little cupcakes that someone made. I’m quite impressed by the buttercream roses.

Delectable pretties
Monday 2 March 2009
On the last day of our Auckland weekend, the hubby and I go to Lilliput Minigolf in Mission Bay. This is where we had our first date almost eight years ago.

You missed the hole...
Tuesday 3 March 2009
Bowling with workmates at the Lanes today. There are lots of nibbles and by the time I get home, I don’t want much for dinner. I decide that a cob of corn freshly picked from the garden would be good. And it was :)

Nom nom nom
Wednesday 4 March 2009
This is what happens when cherry tomatoes cross with beef steak. You get mini beef steaks! They are so cute.

Not quite big enough for your sandwich
Project 365: Week 8
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
Thursday 19 February 2009
Work is bugging me – in paticular, a dumbass senior manager is making dumbass decisions, again. We have nicknamed her Pony because she clomps around as if everything is a matter of life and death (because she’s *so* busy). Now that I think about it, the nick name Dumb Ass is even more suitable. This is her.

Throw oats at it.
Friday 20 February 2009
Torrential rain this morning. The puddles of water are impressive!

At least I don't have to water the garden.
Saturday 21 February 2009
We take a nosy at this year’s Cuba Street Carnival parade. There was even a giant cupcake that zoomed around but I only have my phone camera and it’s too poos to take quick photos.

A performer on stilts.
Sunday 22 February 2009
So much wind today! My washing is in danger of taking off over the fence.

At least they'll dry quickly
Monday 23 February 2009
I get a package from my sister in law – it’s sprinkles! I love how she has addressed it to the Dixon Cupcake Company – hehe.

My own cupcake company would be sweet
Tuesday 24 February 2009
Mmm Awesome Foursome icecream.

I scream for ice cream
Wednesday 25 February 2009
Dinner at Arashi tonight. The hubby has to go back to work at 7:00 so it’s a short and sweet catch up with Ms Constantine and her Boy.
