Er um, no, never.

This Cake is also a Unicorn


So as I said Husband hit a pretty big birthday milestone this week, for arguments sake lets say he turned 21.  I've been trying to litter the week with loads of special things for him.

That said if I was to attempt to make a cake for him it would have been the first time I had ever made a cake so I could not guarantee it's quality. Luckily for me (and Husband) our new awesome friends, one of whom loves to bake on his free time, offered this service. Thus on Wednesday we were greeted with this calorie buster.

From here on I apologise for my use of homosexual terminology as it's very hard to go into details of this wonderment without using words like fagulous, Liza Minnelli and jazz hands. Six layers of sponge each a different color of the rainbow, butter cream dividing each layer and then covering the exterior of the cake (I'm salivating just thinking of it again). The taste was homolicious, divine orgasmic buttercream heaven that was the gayest thing I've ever seen. I mean if this cake was a person it would have pencil mustache, be wearing tiny denim cut-offs and speak with a slightly exaggerated lisp.

We loved it.

Much appreciated.

Sauna Pants


Fellow Blogger Chooplah had a great post on his Blog today about if infomercial products slogans' told the truth (check out the link, it is hilarious).

One of the products he mentioned was Sauna Pants, honest to God these things are apparently real. Never seen them before today and this made me lol like crazy.

I really don't need to say too much on this and I will just let the below infomercial speak for it's self.

Mwah hah hah

Hot Ginger of the Week: Eddie Redmayne


This weeks Hot Ginger name has never been more suitable to the title, I mean red-mane (sorta). Model and actor, Eddie caught everyones attention playing Jack Johnson in the BBC miniseries Pillars of the Earth.

Since then his career has gone from strength to strength, most notably playing the heart and soul of the movie in My Week with Marilyn opposite  Michelle Williams oscar nominated turn.

He is about to blow up huge on our radar as one of the leads in the movie adaptation of the broadway musical Les Miserables.

Things are looking to promising for this Hot Ginger.

No Posts Today


No posts today as it's Husband's birthday. Although technically this is a post, I'm so confused. It's a pretty important birthday so I'm off to show him a spectacular time.

Talk soon.

These Hipsters are Barefoot Now?


When visiting a new major city it's always interesting to see what the Hipster look du jour is. Whilst wandering around the area of Mitte in Berlin where our fashion forward friends congregate, it was interesting to see what this summer's trend was.

Last time I visited East London in the freezing winter months I was perplexed to see the new look shoe-wise was loafers without any socks accompanied by rolled up jeans. If you didn't do this must have look then I assumed you dropped multiple rungs in the coolness ladder, for shame. All this said, I am a creature of comfort and the idea of my ankles getting frost bite in the name of fashion did not appeal. I mean bitch, it was minus 5 outside.

Yet this fashion statement was nothing compared to the mind boggling en vogue I happenstanced in Mitte. To be a la mode here the trend was your feet in the nip, nude, barefoot, nada, zip, bupkiss. Apparently shoes are too mainstream now. I had seen this once or twice before yes, but never had I seen so many all congregated in the same place, all completely barefoot. And I am sorry but how clean are the streets in Berlin? I can't imagine very! This is the right way to a venereal disease my androgynous friends. Seriously, what the fuck? How long does it take for your feet to get accustomed and callous enough for you to be able to pull off this look without looking ridiculously uncomfortable? Actually don't answer that because this is one trend I won't be following.

I'm sorry to rant but come on guys, wake up and smell the ridiculousness and feet are kinda gross.



End of.

Blog Bomb: Oh time, I wasted so much time worrying about you!

Happy birthday Ginger Blog Man!

I am guest posting while he is off on a sexy holiday.

My life as a fractal , Aged 28
I am not in a random mood. Surprisingly!

As my birthday also approaches, I am attempting to repel any feelings that I am not doing things the correct way, within the correct time frame. I know I am not the only one who feels this way. Poor me, poor me, pour me another wine! (And I am not just referring to my kidneys and liver here, I love those little filter bags!)

People do not automatically become more mature because they are older.

I am still not a grown up. I look too young and have to work hard to make sure I am taking care of myself. I have to make a big effort to be taken seriously by some people. I am still learning how to construct the correct ways of dealing with personal issues. I used to think that if you hid away, you would avoid conflict. I was wrong. Because no one is the same.



What do you think space monkey?

As my life unfolds I question humanity's approach to time more and more. Time is just another dimension of space that we are propelled through linearly. It has been taken on as a social construct, which is dumb as our perception of this plane is subjective and therefore different for everyone. Spacetime is a concept that is not graspable by many.. I do believe I understood it for a brief window of 2005.. the psychadelic awakening that swept through Ireland.. you know what I'm taking about Irish hippies! But now we are absurdly preoccupied with the perspective that we can have an effect on it.. 'Lets make today go quickly' or 'Give me more time'.

Our 24 hour time frame is merely an applied constant. It really means sweet little in the context of mind.

What we can do to be less unhappy, is to be in the now and stop attempting to manipulate time. Try and live momentarily. Use the time we have, see? Keep our past behind us and make our present and future the one by not thinking about wasting time or being afraid we are missing out. And tell the truth to the best of our abilities.

I tried an experiment where I said yes to everything for a week. This was of course outside of working hours which is not really our own time. It was emotionally exhausting and draining and fun and kind of expensive. But the surprising thing I learned was that the time construct can be let go. Things will happen the correct way, if we let them. Nothing is ever really wrong, just different. There is no loss in letting go, as just for now becomes all now.

This has been a weird post, I have done my best to not go off on other tangents..erg.
 



Metta,
Blogbomb

P.S. I counted and I only said time sixteen times, including these three! Not a waste of time at all.
