Peeking in

Hello all. I was hoping to have a recipe up today, but I'm still running to keep ahead of Workasaurus and Deadlineadactyl.

Even though most of what I've fed my ravenous gullet wouldn't really be classified as "nutritious"--I don't know how much salt water taffy I've eaten over these past couple of weeks, nor how many burgers or slices of pizza (homemade and otherwise)--I was able to pick up some beautiful fruits and veggies...as well as a few well-deserved treats for me.

It will be a few more days until I'll be able to carve out some time for a proper post. Until then, here are a few photos of the nummy things that have crossed my lips:





Top: blueberries; courgettes, bell peppers, tomatoes, garlic
Middle: peaches; a pretty cuppycake
Bottom: Schwartz's Montreal steak spice (courtesy of the exbf who was in Montréal for WorldCon); a chocolate from my favourite local chocolatrie

cheers!

Yes, my busy bees are back, buzzing around workasaurus and deadlineadactyl.

I'm hoping the bees will scare them off (nothing more embarassing to the beasts that being all welty from the stingers of the teeny little winged creatures), but alas those horrid pharmacos have developed some sort of gigantic epipen for the equally horrid beasts, so it seems that I'll be busy slaying these dragon-like monsters on my own.

I'll be back in a few days.

In the meanwhile, I'll leave you with the Furs' Pretty In Pink simply because I found out John Hughes, director of some of my favourite 80s movies (The Breakfast Club, Pretty in Pink, Sixteen Candles) died today. For those of you interested in music he used in some of his soundtracks, check out Purebordom's John Hughes Soundtrack Retrospective.



Edit: okay...for whatever reason, the video isn't appearing. Here's the direct link:
