@ Work

At work last night there was this adorable bag sitting in the fridge! What is a bag doing in the fridge? This was a cake made for one of the customer's having a birthday! All the staff, all the gals at work anyway, were fascinated with it! And it was a chocolate cake too! It looked real scrumptious.


Here are two phone key chains from some folks at work. A adore the top one just because it's a cut baby in a dinosaur suit. You think it looks cute on a key chain, when you see it on little kids they are too cute!
The next phone decoration is chunky. With this on your phone, there's no excuse to say you couldn't find it. And I don't see a lot of rocks on phones, giving it a unique oomph!

Chocolate Chip Peanut Cookies

I read an article from Loft earlier this week saying how Macaroons are now a very fashionable dessert to have. They’re light, fluffy, French and delicate! What’s not to like about them? I put myself to the challenge of making a bunch of these macaroons, but as I read on articles on the internet, I got worried. The only things I can cook is rice, steak and salad! I need to practice and work my way up macaroons! I looked through my old cookbooks and found a recipe that I have from year 7 Home Economics Class! Choc Chip Peanut Cookies; They sound yum, so I’ll make them!
WARNING: This recipe is full of NUTS! It will contain nuts, will always have nuts and I feel so bad for you out there who are allergic to this wonderful nut; THE PEANUT!

Neon Nights

 There's something about warm weather that makes people get a little frisky with their fashion choices—a sentiment that's particularly true on the red carpet right now! But rather than going for edgy silhouettes or barely-there dresses, tastemakers like Gwyneth Paltrow, Diane Kruger, and Kirsten Dunst are turning up the sartorial heat by opting for formal gowns in a slew of fluorescent hues.
