Project 365: Week 7
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
Thursday 12 February 2009
What a rainy day it is! The water fountain in Cuba Street looks like it’s working over time.
Water, water, everywhere
Friday 13 February 2009
I threw this lollipop in my bin at work earlier in the week as I had an ulcer and it was too much to finish. It’s now dried to my rubbish bag, forever. Unless I get a new rubbish bag.
Oh hai, again.

Valentine’s Day. Hubby and I find out we are going to Christchurch for our free mystery weekend. The rental car that is part of the package turns out to be a brand new one that has only done 12 kilometres. Yayah.
Brand new cars are great
Sunday 15 February 2009
The hubby and I have ice cream and fish and chips (in that order) before heading back to Wellington.
Sherrrberrt
Monday 16 February 2009
Our first wedding anniversary! After watching the movie Valkyrie, we come home and cut our cake. It’s still good – and full of rum.
Mmmm cake

Everytime I see a whale now I think of the Fail Whale. Here is one on Courtenay Place.

The only thing we brought back from Christchurch is a bag of habanero chillis. Hubby chops up a couple and fries them to make some chilli oil. He also tries a bit after they are fried and loses much of the feeling in his mouth.
Handle with care
Project 365: Week 6
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
Thursday 5 February 2009
The two flowers on my orchid are in full bloom. No, wait – that was a caption from last week’s photos… but almost fitting for these Barbie dolls at The Green Man. Apart from the waiting time fun, they do $6 pizzas on Thursdays that are delish!
The one of the left I dub "Al Bundy Barbie". No comment for the one flashing her plastic fantastics though.
Friday 6 February 2009
Waitangi Day – public holiday – woohoo! We head over the Cook Strait on a morning ferry to spend the weekend in Picton and attend a wedding. It’s a beautiful day and the views from our hotel are awesome.
How peaceful
Saturday 7 February 2009
The wedding of Colin and Jesi. Such a romantic wedding – Jesi makes her entrance in a dinghy rowed by her father! Congratulations guys!

Sunday 8 February 2009
The Frog and Dog in Picton do some good banana bacon hotcakes. I have these on both Saturday and Sunday.
Breakfast al fresco is the way to go in summer
Monday 9 February 2009
Back to work, and oh look – my new 22 inch flat screen is here! I think they gave me one of these so I would quit complaining.

Tuesday 10 February 2009
My succulent (that I “saved” from a “dangerous” cliff in Lyall Bay) are in bloom again. The flowers are so cute you almost expect fairies to be hiding in them, or pixies using them as hats.
Cute little bunches
Wednesday 11 February 2009
Colin is still away (honeymoons are overrated, really), and another one of our guys left last week. I have been flooded with IT requests and help queries the last few days.
Today three people give me thank you cards and chocolate fishes within 10 minutes of each other which was very unexpected.
Thanks guys for making me feel appreciated :)
Three chocolate fish for me
Project 365: Missing Picture
Whoops! I forgot to put up the photo for Thursday on my post Project 365: Week 5.
So here it is.
Thursday 29 January 2009
Ms Constantine (sporting what looks like a mega Star-Trek-type fringe, but that’s just the photo) enjoying mussels and chips with me at the Leuven.
(By the way, coincidently Fringe is a techy drama created by the people who are also responsible for the next Star Trek movie.)
Beer, frites, mussels - mmm!
Project 365: Week 5
My week in photos as part of Project 365:
This week has been quite culinary-focussed!
Friday 30 January 2009
The two flowers on my orchid are in full bloom.
I'm so proud
Saturday 31 January 2009
It is 26 °C today. Ms Constantine and I reward our craft-focussed shopping trip with some icey pineapple cranberry slushies.
So refreshing
Sunday 1 February 2009
Ms Constantine and I make pancakes for breakfast on this first day of February. We top the pancakes with rock melon, banana, lemon sugar, and I also add maple syrup to mine :)
Yummy!
Monday 2 February 2009
Hubby decides it’s been long enough waiting for the homebrew. A bottle is cracked open and tasted. Not quite long enough after all.
The first of the homebrew
Tuesday 3 February 2009
Free lunch at work is always good.
A mighty croissant and brownie for lunch
Wednesday 4 February 2009
We have a morning tea for a team member’s farewell. There is *lots* of cake – yum!
Morning tea with lots of cakes
