The cake I made for Mom and Dad said "STUCK WITH ME." Because, you know, they are. And I'm a pain in the ass -- no picnic for them.

 

Perhaps that's why they got all vulgar on my beloved handbaked pastry.

It was a good night of television programming last night, as "South Park" featured an episode about Guitar Hero. This character is so talented, he doesn't even need the gaming system. He can play Guitar Hero acoustically.

We are in the process of buying our very first home! It's the first floor of a renovated yellow Victorian built in 1926. It's in Salem, MA and is truly double the size of our current space. Who wants to come to our first party?

Day 30 for the 30 Day Challenge Group!!

 

This was THE LAST DAY of the Challenge!!! Awww, I'll miss doing it, but it's been great, really got me going again with shooting regularly, and I think it's a challenge I'll definitely do again. Next time hopefully do every day and not just 27 days!!

 

A big thanks to Rasterman74 and Michel Nichol cos they're both REALLY cool!!

 

So listen up everyone, if you are looking for a really decent challenge, different theme every day for one month, go join the group, I loved it!!

 

All these shots from the storyboard were taken at a photoshoot with John Paul & Aisling, Rasterman74 did the portraits and I did the details, was really good fun!!

The bathroom is ok. I think I'll like it much better when I paint it in cooler colors. Isn't the sink elegant though?

This is why old trees & tree hollows are so important. They Support a veriety of animals. These are a pair of native australia parrots called Lorikeets (look like a breeding pair), nesting/looking for an appropriate home in a (Native) Euclayptus tree. These Trees are equivilent to say an appartment block, and if so must be protected. I spotted this pair around Enoggera dam, to Brisbanes West.

we came from these... mama... earth

I love to pick. And I love cheese. Hence, perfect dinner.
