Week 73

L - Lego Cupcakes - This is part of a little project I am working on...I had a great time making the cakes, decorating etc. I just had to share it. Its one for all you Lego lovers out there..!! ;-) The Lego toppers will be coming to an online store soon.


R - Chocolate Crackle Cookies - I made some cookies for a birthday at work - oooh and yum is all I can say!

Week 72

L - Who Needs Roses? I got some early Valentines Day flowers on Saturday...perhaps my all time fave type Sunflowers! Shane ordered them specially for me (via his Dad at the flower market) they came with the full stalk on so they were nearly as high as me! They are just so bright and happy looking flowers - I bet you have a smile on your face just looking at them. Haha

R - I did a little photo shoot at the flat iron building a few weeks back in the freezing cold. Can you believe that this is the actual colour of the sky, it's crazy! it was miserable and cold and freezing but I like the way this turned out.

Week 72

L - Will the Rain Stop? Australia, mostly in Queensland, has been battered with flooding and Cyclone Yasi. Melbourne although luckily missed all that but the Yasi fall out meant it rained so hard from 5 - 11pm on Friday that the drains couldn't cope. Kids were playing out in the street in the stormwater floods....our back garden was full of water. Up to the top of my wellies....The following day everything was still sprinkled with what looked like little diamonds...sadly rain droplets. ;-)


R - HELLGATE! I went boarding for the first time this year at Hunter Mountain NY and I did my first Black Diamond (really just a hard blue) conditions were "fast and hard, typical East Cost" but I enjoyed myself and it looks like all the indoboarding I've been doing at the gym has paid off because I'm not too sore this morning.

Week 70

L - A Wee Burns Night Dram (January 25th) - It may be Australia Day today, but I made sure I didn't overlook Scottish celebrations and had a wee dram for the Baird himself....Robert Burns.

R - We got 15 inches of snow last wednesday, it was so pretty walking to work down the middle of the road. The building in the distance is One Hanson Place, a Brooklyn landmark I walk to every day for the train.
