Favourite Summer Activity!
Now thats its nice and frosty here in Australia, it warmed me up thinking of my favourite summer activity for the From Our Blog 2 Yours challenge over at SSD.
My favourite summer activity would have to be the mid morning summer playdates with Rylee's best friend Molly. Playing under the sprinklers, eating ice cream and drinks that cool the insides while being shaded by the big ole tree in the front yard truly does say summer to me.
And when it gets too hot during the day me and Rylee pile on to my comfy bed and watch movies, as the main bedroom is the only one in the house with a split system air conditioner.

Just how nerdy are you?
I never considered myself a nerd, Im glad my test proved that.
This was for the From Our Blog to Yours Challenge Thursday 5th.
It says:
94% scored higher (more nerdy),
1% scored the same, and
5% scored lower (less nerdy).
What does this mean? Your nerdiness is:
Definitely not nerdy, you are probably cool.
Well then, there you go.

Dream Vacation
For the From Our Blog to Yours on Sweet Shoppe Designs, we were asked to blog about our dream vacation.
I would love to go to Fiji. Rent a little hut on the beach, watch the sun set over the waves, go scuba diving, Fall asleep listening to the ocean and sit on the beach drinking a cocktail.
Now thats my idea of a vacation.

A New Goal!
So I have decided that I would like to co-dedicate (is that even a word?) this blog to my digital scrapbooking. Im still relitively new at the whole thing, but have found a couple of great sites with challenges which are perfect for inspiring me to go to new lengths with my scrapping.
Here are a couple of my newer LO's.

I am yet to do 1 years old, because I need to really put my thinking cap on for that one. It feels like so long ago.
TFL!!

Mums choc chip biscuit recipe!
I had an interesting email today from a friend about a 'Friends Recipe Exchange' so I typed up this recipe and sent it allong to the lady whose name was on the top of the list. I thought that while it was there I might as well copy and paste it here so that more people can give it a go if desired.
Here's my mums recipe for her choc chip biscuits, I grew up on these biscuits so I think they are the best.
2 cups Plain Flour
1/2 cup sugar, just the regular kind will do
150g butter or margarine, room temp
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarb soda
1/2 cup milk
1 small packet of nestle dark choc chips
Rub the butter into the dry ingredients till combined, add milk a little at a time. You may not need all the milk, or you may need a little more, just judge it for yourself. The mix should be a little sticky, but not too wet and all the dry ingredients are combined. Add the choc chips last, because you don't want to over mix with them in there. Mix gently and they are ready to bake.
Place rough balls of the dough on a lined baking tray, the main appeal of this biscuit is that it doesn't take allot of work and they look home made, so just spoon full's of the mixture on a tray is fine. Roughly press the tops of the biscuits with a fork, not too flat because they are nice when they are thick and cakey.
Bake in a moderate oven, 160 - 180 for approx 10 minutes. They will be ready when the bottoms are nicely browned and the tops are slightly golden. Please note they are not crispy biscuits, they are supposed to be thick and cake like.
Make sure to eat when they are warm and the choc chips are still melted in the middle with a large glass of cold milk!!!
Enjoy
