Lard

What a weekend! Where do I start? Tizz was home and we all had a brill time. Lots of fun and games and yummy (but lardy) food.

Dizz made the first recipe from her Green and Blacks cook book - an orgasmic chocolate cake. The only drawback was that, after making it, we had to wait FOUR HOURS while it chilled in the fridge. That's a long time to drool. But the wait was worth it. I can't begin to describe how delicious it was, I think only a true poet could do it justice.

We also went to see Spiderman 3. If you like silliness, amazing special effects, schmaltzy emotional stuff and improbable plot-lines, then this is the film for you. We thoroughly enjoyed it, except one spinny bit that made some of us a bit dizzy. Bad Spidey is so cheesy he's cool. And the girl behind the ice-cream counter was soooo nice, bless her, she let us taste the ice-cream before buying. Made for an all-round wonderful cinema experience.

There were also, at some point in the weekend, home-made burgers and potato wedges, more lardy food.

Dr. Who was brilliant too - he went to a black tie function, so he swapped the slightly crumpled blue suit for a tuxedo and bow tie, and he changed out of his red converse into ... black converse! How cool is he! Woolworths are selling boys' pants with Dr. Who on them. They only go up to size 7-8 years, but I'm going to buy some anyway. I can add some extra side panels. Oh! suits you.

Dizz is throwing a baby shower for the pregnant people next weekend, so we made a banner. It is truly funkay - the sparkly metallic paints are really groovy. Photo will be added later...

And Gray's Anatomy - last in the series next week! Who's going to die? DON'T TELL US! It can't be Denny, can it? Please make it be Burke. And don't make us say goodbye to Mc Vet either, he be cute.

And then there was lardy pizza and garlic bread, then more craftsy stuff - Tizz made 3 bracelets and Dizz made an ankle bracelet and a necklace, while I tested out the possibility of using the groovy paints on fabric.

So, you see, it was a fab, groovy, funkay, gojus weekend.

MWAH!

I think it's safe to say I ROLLED into work this morning, the amount of food we ate! The photo makes the cake look odd, huge cherry! Peeps at work liked the cake so much I got two proposals of marriage and lots of mmmm and ooohhh-ing.

Fab weekend! Come back Tizz, missing you already x

OK, I changed the photo of the cake, so the cherry doesn't look quite so disproportionately large. I'm not surprised about the marriage proposals, it's a very sexy cake.
