To celebrate the end of the jersey caramel drought I made caramel icecream with jersey caramels - absolute genius.

Monday, December 13, 2010

For a while now there has been a jersey caramel drought and this has bothered me somewhat. I have not been able to find these yummy caramel cubes anywhere - I have even had my Mother on the lookout for them. But drought no more, at lunchtime I found a hook full of packets in Woolworths. Phew!

Upon my return from New York I needed some serious cheering up so I bought an ice cream machine. One of the best decisions I have ever made. I have made ice cream every weekend since I bought it. My favourite ice cream flavour is Ben & Jerry’s Coffee Heath Bar Crunch which you cannot buy in this dumb country but now I can make it. My life is complete…kind of.

People are always telling me that i walk too fast and I think that people walk too slow.But I just read this...

Studies have now shown that slow walkers have a greater risk of an earlier death compared to those with a brisk stride.

So you can all get stuffed as far as I am concerned.

I am sooo over winter. I know this is my first full winter in years but I seriously do not remember it being this cold for this long. Winter sucks.

Bad things about winter
o It’s cold
o It’s dark
o Everyone is grumpy even my cat
o It always starts raining when i leave work and have to walk to my car
o It’s cold
o My heating bill
o I can't feel my toes
o It’s not daylight savings
o It’s cold
o It’s takes a week for my washing to dry
o It’s cold
o It’s cold
o It’s cold

There are some very ugly people in this world.

Wattletree Rd is baffling me at the moment. A while back i saw the zombie car and then a few nights ago I saw a very famous food critic going for a powerwalk in his track pants. This morning I saw a rather large dog - a boxer the size of a person - sitting in the driver's seat of a mercedes benz with his paws on the steering wheel, looking about at the traffic and having the time of his life. You shouldn't let dogs drive - it's very dangerous.

Now what the F is with toothbrush technology. It’s a toothbrush – it doesn’t need new technology – just some soft bristles and a handle. Every time I watch TV there is an ad for some new thing – a hole to make your thumb more comfortable (why does you thumb need to be comfortable?), bristles that are different sizes or are arranged in a pattern on the brush head, bendable necks on the handle, a brush for whitening, a brush for acid wear and it goes on. None of these things are going to make your teeth any cleaner than a regular toothbrush.

I must admit though that the kid’s toothbrushes are pretty impressive – they don’t get new technology just Spiderman and Winnie-the-Pooh handles.

As I was cursing at the traffic this morning I noticed that the blue four wheel drive in front of me had a large sticker on the back windscreen - "ZOMBIE ATTACK RESPONSE VEHICLE". Brilliant!

I have just read an article about the increasing size of breasts. Apparently they have tripled in size over the past fifty years. Of course they have got bigger because everyone has got FAT. And don't start trying to justify that size 12-14 is normal size - it's not - it's fat so just deal with it.
And what the hell is going on with teenagers? I have never seen so many with massive breasts - hormones in the chickens I suspect.
This article also says that women should flaunt their bigger assets but I really don't need to see anyone's fleshy chest balloons so please just put them away - they're disgusting.
