I have found a way to re-use the box that the soy cooking milk came in…
I recieved my gift recipient for the Brown Paper Package Exchange in my email this afternoon. Now I just need to stalk their blog (as I think I saw someone doing this afternoon from that link in my stats!) to try to think of a good pressie. Maybe something with an “Aussie Bush Christmas” theme? Think thongs and koalas, and santa in shorts, along with ANZAC biscuit treats. :p
Finally made it home about 6.30, to a cute little present box…
Ooh Soy Creamy Cooking milk. Two tins, won through Not Quite Nigella… I’m so trying this tonight! (They don’t yet stock it at the local Woothworths at Weston Creek, so if I like it, I’ll have to ask them to get it in!)
A little friend came to visit the other week… He introduced himself as Chuck. He liked living at his own pace, never too fussed about anything…
We had a little fun together, thanks to him, and his friends at Chupa Chup’s Life Less Serious sending him along with enough Chupa Chups for he and I to keep sugared up for… a day or so…
Unfortunately for Chuck, he hit my doorstep just as final uni assignments were due, and when I was hitting a sugar-free exercise bender… for general health and for my waistline… more Chupa Chups for him!
He took his stash with him to the gym… I wouldn’t let him in the change rooms, cheeky boy, so he waited it out in my locker while I changed and went for my run…
Found him in there, so patient. Seriously, this boy can NOT be upset by anything. Not even by the killer ducks at ANU…
(This couple had FOURTEEN ducklings this spring… anyone else in awe/thinking of putting off children even longer with that prospect? :p)
See, not phased one bit. Though he was a little surprised that they turned down his sugary goodness…
You could win $10,000 cash (or even your own lil Chuck) by showing off your Life Less Serious to Australia. What are you waiting for? :D
So patient… hopefully the ants won’t come and steal his sugar!
What’s your favourite flavour? I’m a Cola girl through and through!
Speaking of Elizabeth, I’m thinking of writing (and doing!) a 101 things in 1001 days list. But it will have to hold off until after I finish up at uni for the semester. My final assignment is due in 20 days. So after that.
So many good things come from stalking. You make friends, you win bags, and you get the thrill of tracking someone down :p Jen and her little (and rapidly growing) boy were some of my first “Real” clients as a “real” speech pathologist. Aren’t they lucky getting me as a new grad? ;) Pop-up pirate [...]
Meet the Stars of The Terrible Plop: I think the highlights from today’s Speech Pathology Australia Book of the Year Awards today in Canberra were the readings and talks… Not everything went according to plan, but it’s rare that things do! :) I honestly do not remember much of the ceremony, as I was on [...]
Well, this has certainly crept up on us! At the end of last year, the ACT branch of Speech Pathology Australia was asked to host the 2009 book of the year awards. We of course said yes, good to have an event to start organising for! And the day is here! How did that happen? [...]
I’m sure whoever drew it also had some fun. I’d love to go around one day with a bucket of that fat street chalk, draw some flowers, write some messages. Make people smile :)
