I don’t know why, but sometimes coffee is a little like
alcohol for me (well, from what I remember as I rarely drink these days).
Sometimes I have a cup, and I become wired, giggling and unable to concentrate.
Other times, it does nothing. Strange, but highly amusing when I get affected
by it!
Last night I roasted a beetroot. I have never cooked
beetroot before, but I bought one last week and I thought I’d better do
something with it before it gets old. So I peeled it, quartered it and wrapped
it in foil and roasted it for an hour on 180*c. I’m really not sure what I’ll
do with it (I put it in the fridge once it had cooled down) but I’m sure that
it’ll be tasty. Maybe beetroot hummus, maybe I’ll add just a little balsamic
and eat it on its own.
Oh, I took a photo of a piece of banana chocolate cake I
baked for mother’s day. I didn’t bother to sprinkle any more icing sugar on it,
but I easily could have.

I was recently ‘invited’ to join Pinterest, and I’m having
fun using it. If you’ve never heard of it, that’s ok – I had no idea what it
was until about a month ago. It’s considered a social media tool (but I like to
use it as a friendly reminder tool for my often forgetful and overloaded brain!).
You pretty much ‘pin’ things on to your board. Sounds kinda lame-o, but it’s
actually quite enjoyable. As Pinterest explains it;
Pinterest lets you
organize and share all the beautiful things you find on the web. People use
pinboards to plan their weddings, decorate their homes, and organize their
favorite recipes.
Best of all, you can
browse pinboards created by other people. Browsing pinboards is a fun way to
discover new things and get inspiration from people who share your interests.
Our goal is to connect
everyone in the world through the 'things' they find interesting. We think that
a favorite book, toy, or recipe can reveal a common link between two people.
With millions of new pins added every week, Pinterest is connecting people all
over the world based on shared tastes and interests.
So I’ve come across a heap of new recipes, amazing beaches
to discover, and cute pictures of animals – like below!! If you’re on Pinterest,
feel free to add me (follow me?
Pin me??).

(what is this formatting thing on blogger? Sorry about this scmemozzle of a mess, but you can't format your pictures easily - if you know how, then please let me know!!)
I’ve also found my dream home. It’s located in Malibu, California and costs a mere $15 million. Haha! If you would like to donate to the cause, please let me know as all donations are more than welcome. You may even score yourself an invite to the housewarming!! HAHA!!
Le sigh. How I would love to be sunning myself on a beach somewhere warm and tropical at the moment.......
Update: As you can probably tell, I enjoy my cooking. And I have FOREVER wanted a beautiful KitchenAid mixer. Well there is a vegetarian website called Delicieux that is doing a giveaway, so to get an entry I need to give them a free plug - so here is the plug!! Now fingers crossed and I'll start dreaming about which colour I would like...
