Planking vs Teapotting

2011-05-21T17:41:00.000+10:00

Well hasn't planking taken off and taken some very interesting and fatal directions? A bit of harmless fun initially (or as a facebook friend stated 'in my day it was called being a kid!) has been tarnished by a few that have gone way too far with it, and I really feel for those families and friends who lost someone close.

It seems that so many different things can take off and spread like wildfire as a fad on social network sites like Facebook.

I find this one a much more civilised fad darlings! Teapotting!
Read this story and thought it was great

Can you imagine sitting in a beautiful teahouse or outdoor cafe, sipping on your very civilised earl grey and teacake - then getting up and doing a little 'I'm a little teapot' pose!? Fantastic - I love it!

My kids have planked the couches and barstools, but will they teapot ? I think that although Teapotting is so sweet, planking in its more extreme form will probably outdo it.

Here are the full lyrics to I'm a little teapot taken from Lyrics007, i didn't know that there were actually more words than the chorus - oops!

I'm a little teapot

Short and stouts

Here is my handle

Here is my spout

When I get all steamed up

I just shout

Tip me over and pour me out

I'm a very special pot

It's true

Here's an example of what I can do

I can turn my handle into a spout

Tip me over and pour me out

I'm a little teapot

Short and stouts

Here is my handle

Here is my spout

When I get all steamed up

I just shout

Tip me over and pour me out

I'm a very special pot

It's true

Here's an example of what I can do

I can turn my handle into a spout

Tip me over and pour me out

Thirsty for a cuppa now!?

Miss A's 2nd Birthday Party July 2010

2010-07-12T10:44:00.000+10:00

A dear old school friend asked for my advice on a fail-proof vanilla cupcake recipe for her daughter's birthday party. She needed a recipe that always worked as she was using an unfamiliar oven. I gave her a recipe that I have found never fails to deliver, even if my own human error comes into it!!

**oh geez... as im writing this sitting outside...my son is hitting me with an inflatable Batman hammer! BUT..I digress!

Below is a copy of the email I sent and some tips that I have found helpful. I also sent her some personalised cupcake toppers for her gorgeous cupcakes and lil girl!

1. make sure the eggs, milk and butter are as close to room temperature as possible.

2. Good quality cupcake papers do make a difference.

3. when using an unfamiliar oven, decrease the temperature by at least 10 degrees and check regularly with the cake poker and take out as soon as the poker comes out clean.

4. when cooked, leave the cakes in the tin until they cool, then put them on the cake cooling rack to cool completely.

5. before icing, spread each cupcake with an apricot jam which helps to keep the moisture in (will need to heat the jam for 20-30 seconds to get a spreading consistency,let cool and spread lightly)

6. NEVER store in the fridge iced,store the cakes in a box, or those plastic cupcake carriers

hope that helps a bit, have fun with them!!xal

Thanks for stopping by on this lovely Monday morning, I hope that the rest of your week is fabulous!!xal

What's wrong with cupcakes at Easter?

2010-04-01T10:06:00.000+11:00

Morning all and Happy Easter,

mmm...this morning on the Sunrise Program Ch7, James Tobin (the spunky weatherman) questioned weather cupcakes were really an Easter treat.

Stake through my heart James!

I of course , wholeheartedly agree that cupcakes are an Easter treat, and believe that they are a fantastic sweet treat alternative to chocolate, and also are a fantastic platform to personalise and make something special for Easter!

So what do you think, Are cupcakes an Easter treat?
First comment will win a mystery prize!!! (Australia Only)(comp closes 8 April 2010)
