My Mum’s the Queen!

With a detour via Sydney on the way to check out some job leads, and arriving back close to midnight last night, the weekend was a rather long long weekend.

The coffee I didn’t spill all over myself. Liam (the toddler) spilled two. I only spilled one. Grace does not come with age in my family!

Happy Mondays

February 28, 2011 · 4 comments

At least a happy Monday afternoon. Debriefed about work with colleagues, went to the gym, and received some goodies in the post:

Gluten Free Goodies
Box of 6 packets of awesome from Melinda’s Gluten-Free Goodies :) Looking forward to making these up over the coming weeks!

Free tickets!
Double pass to Inside Job, I think I got this via Cinetology. Will have to find a night to see it :)

Awesome lilies
And my flowers have opened up nicely. Also on that table you can see my bridesmaid bouquet from my sister’s wedding, and a photo from our year 12 formal. So young and pale. And skinny! ;)

How was your Monday?

So, my dear, you all want to hear the story behind why I arrived home on Thursday to Flowers from Crust Pizza?

As happens in the blogging world, arrangements are made at times for bloggers to try things, in the hope that they’ll like them and blog about how awesome they are.

This was the challenge for Crust, when their PR company accepted my challenge that a pizza could still be awesome when on a gluten free base, and without the mozzarella… (I, of course, then select a vegetarian pizza on top of that – but have feta, because it rocks and I’ve decided that I’m eating it regardless)

Crust Pizza

But why is the pizza reheated? And so crispy?

Well… the problem with getting PR to order, via the main office, then getting it delivered by the local franchise… is well, sometimes payments are miscommunicated, and Fiona and the pizza boy spend 20 minutes on the porch trying to sort it out, while Fiona almost cries in her panicky anxious everything always goes wrong way.

But it sorts out. PR company works their charms.

And the pizza was nice. Liked the pumpkin sauce. And the toppings. Will steal that idea for my home made pizzas!

Not sold on the base yet – probably because it was singed black by the time we ate it? Maybe next time my pizza will be hot from the box.

2 days later, I get home… to flowers on the doorstep!

Flowers from Crust Pizza

Who are they from? Usually it’s my parents or Rish’s parents (or various lovers, of course)…

Flowers from Crust Pizza

aww. They made me smile.

I bought myself flowers

Just to add a little colour, a little perfume.

Flowers are something that have grown on me over the years.

I think it was 6 years ago today-ish that we first properly came to Canberra. I didn’t stay permanently for another 6 months, but was here enough. No wonder people are starting to think I’m a local!

(though someone did get asked if I was a new grad last week. meeps! I looked young that day?)

I’m on Fire

Fire flowers

so you dont want to hear about my good song?
and you dont want to hear about how i am getting on
with all the things that i can get done
the sun is in the sky & i am by my lonesome
so you don’t want to hear about my good day?
you have better things to do than to hear me say

god its been a lovely day! everything is going my way
i took out the trash today and i’m on fire…
