Weetabix Brownies →
Here is the recipe for all those who’ve asked… they’re really moreish so don’t blame me if you make them and they’re eaten instantly. Ours lasted all of one day but they can apparently keep for a few days - perhaps in an airtight tin surrounded by armed guards?
Pimp My Bin →
I’m not sure I’m quite getting this one… my bin is for rubbish… not tarting about the place!
Moving on up...
Sprog is to move to the next class up in nursery at the end of next month. I feel a sense of apprehension… I suppose it’s all part on him rapidly growing up… but why can’t he just stay in the caterpillar room for a few more months years?!
WatchWhat I like about the internet is that you can go from reading about a lip-synching robot to finding an interesting song like this one. (It’s “Hide and Seek” by Imogen Heap in case the video isn’t working.)
Music Search Plus →
A really good music search and download thingy with none of the stupid pop ups and all that palaver you normally get. It’s so good I actually made a donation which is almost unheard of!!
“Arrrgghhh… please just eat your lunch!!!???”
– Making food only to have it spat out, refused or chucked on the floor is a tad demoralising…
Reflex action...
Walking to town at lunch (Sprog at nursery me at work) I spy a dummy identical to Sprog’s… almost scooped it up, is an auto-response now.
Cereal numbers
How is it we get through so many weetabix? Where do they all go?! Maybe Cat is eating them while we’re at work…
“We should come in a tank and just park on top of any car in the parent and child...”

For the ultra organised mummy who has a ‘babysitting circle’… except I don’t… d’oh.

Randomness, ranting… what more do you need from a website?!
Mmmm, stats
I’ve signed up for Flickr stats to see how many people don’t look at my pictures…
“Stupid car, stop having your engine management light on!!!”
– Why is it that as soon as I get a ‘sensible’ vehicle it decides to have some kind of problem every other month?!
Snow!
Random teeth
Sprog has decided to grow 2 large back teeth each side rather than continue growing his front set of choppers in the proper order. It’s kind of sensible as he can now chew food more effectively, whilst retaining his cute baby-ish appearance, thus improving his begging for food ability.
You Have to Burn the Rope →
This is exactly my kind of computer game…
Yes Madonna, I sleep with my laptop under my... →
Obviously it cricks my neck a little bit and the fan keeps Husband awake sometimes, but I mean, everyone does it right? It’s not weird or a little bit pathetic or anything…
“You know you’re tired”
– when you try and use the office swipe to get into your front door and your desk keys to get into work…
Ashes to Ashes was good in some places...
Gene: Chris, take that, it's the dodgy second hand car dealers, East 17
Chris: Ahh, right... backstreet boys
Ray: Let's get 'em busted
