A hard-rocking, fun-loving chick. A DJ, a wife, a mother. A sister, a friend.

Mandy is another of my sisters of the heart. Because of our time zones, I don’t get to see her nearly as much as I’d like to. She rocks and she makes me laugh and smile. She’s tough as nails on the outside while soft and tender inside. She loves Queen, quirky humour and being in love.

Mandy Moo, I love youuuuuuuu! ♥

Weekly Photo Challenge: Lunchtime – You Had Me At Cupcake

I laughed when I saw the subject of this week’s photo challenge. I regularly snap photos of my lunch with the camera on my phone to send to my sweetheart, so since it’s breakfast time for me in Australia, I’m pulling some snaps from my archives. These are totally raw shots, other than a bit of cropping – a big departure from my Second Life photos!

It actually started with me sending him pictures of cupcakes in the display cabinet of the cafe at work, so I’m tossing in a shot of those (hey, you can have cupcakes for lunch…right?)

And now, on to some of the lunch shots from the same cafe.

Chicken ceasar salad with mushrooms and boiled egg. Healthy and light!

Chicken, black bean and avocado tacos with a corn salsa in a soft tortilla. Absolutely delicious!

I could post more, but I’m afraid I would run the battery down on my phone just uploading them 😉

You can see more entries for the Weekly Photo Challenge here. And drool over their offerings like I did 🙂

And On The Seventh Day, God Created…

Yep, people who know me knew it was gonna happen. I even hinted at it a while ago on my Facebook page. My two favourite food groups are Cupcakes…and Bacon 😉 Combine the two and you’ve got a recipe for OMGreatness!

While there has been an explosion of bacon memes on the ‘net, I can proudly say I was a bacon lover long before it was “the” thing to love.

As an expert and connoisseur, I’ve decided to share two important bacon facts with you.

1. If you truly love bacon, you wear it with pride.

But more importantly:

2.Always, always, ALWAYS wear an apron when you’re cooking bacon!

“You don’t have to say a thing except yes. You don’t have to do anything, either, I’m quite willing to plan it all.”
“You?”
“Yes me.”
“You’d plan all of it? Even the wedding?”
“Why not?”
“You don’t even like to plan your own breakfast.”
He grinned. “You mean more to me than bacon.”
“More than bacon? I’m honored.”
“You should be, my foolish pea brain.”
