Check out the gore-geous girl who appeared on my doorstep last week. She’s got brains ;-), she’s got killer curves and she’s got blood red heels to match her hair.
She’s the brainchild of Pussy’s Bowtique and you can get yourself one via the Facebook page or at Pussy’s madeit store. If she’s a bit rich for your taste you might prefer one of her more demure sisters or you can get accessories custom made to match your favourite outfit.
This is a guest post by Nathan in Yr 8 at my school. This post puts Nathan in the running to win our t-shirt competition.
The Yr 8 art class at my school have been making art inspired by medieval objects and images. This drawing by Nathan of a bony old witch doctor is a freehand drawing and a sign of great things to come, we think.
At last, a reason to link to Not Quite Nigella!
Not Quite Nigella is part of my Secret Blog Business. Late at night, while Mr Vivi is getting ready to go to bed and I am waiting for him to get out of the bathroom, I sit and pretend to be shutting down my computer. What I’m really doing is catching up on my blog feeds and Not Quite Nigella has risen in the ranks to be one of the first folders I open to read.
Tonight, in honour of Australian Bacon Week (have you heard it’s Bacon Week?) I am making an original Not Quite Nigella recipe for dinner and writing about it as an excuse to spread the word about the fabulous NQN blog. She’s funny, she’s adventurous and she takes much better photographs than I do.
Tonight for dinner it’s NQN Cauliflower and Bacon Soup. Super easy to make and smells fantastic on the stove. I used a bacon stock cube and a chicken stock cube to make the stock, added some fresh nutmeg to the pot and some onion to the crumble topping. I also didn’t bother to blend it in the food processor because I don’t mind chunky soup and I didn’t want to do the extra washing up.
We’ll be having it with a glass of Squealing Pig sauvignon blanc.
Have you got a good bacon recipe, Vivsters?
I’ve joined Pinterest and I’m having a fabulous time! At first I was a bit sceptical about how it is used, but I signed up anyway just to give it a try.
I’ve decided to use it as a place to gather really good anatomy images, experiment ideas and other science images for you to refer to.
You know how frustrating it is when someone takes your work and presents it without giving you any credit, so please be courteous and credit the artists and websites if you use the images in the classroom. I have tried to link all the images back to their original websites so you can check out any copyright information they have and use the images appropriately.
I hope it’s useful to you and you find some fun there too. Feel free to point me in the direction of good stuff to share with other labbies. I’ll count it as an entry in the t-shirt competition if you do it before Easter.
By the way, Happy Australian Bacon Week to you! It’s going to be all about bacon on this blog and the Facebook page this week.
