Which is probably the most exciting thing I can talk about that's happened 
It's Tuesday again so I thought I'd do a week in review update (two weeks)
So my last "update" was feb 21 - and I said I was thinking about going to the shops it get cocoa pops and biscuits - well I didn't go to the shop. But that afternoon or the next Nick brought home cocoa pops. Which was cool.
You heard all about the faintale, Cate Blanchett winning the oscar and Elana's adventure with her blanket. - Which is mostly everything that happened.
What's been REALLY good is our "mothers group" - Rin and I had been getting together on Fridays for a while now and recently we added Sami - So every second Friday we take our 4 kids (rins 2 boys and sami's girl) to Indooroopilly for Retail Therapy. THEN the alternate Friday we all meet up at the Water Park -- whcih is this absolutely brilliant park which has 3 ovals, an amitheatre, and this section of "pools" the deepest part is about knee deep and there's rocks and fountains and slides - creeks to walk through It's absolutely amazing. The kids have a ball the 2 3yos play with their boats and wander around splashing and laughing and the 2 1yo's stay pretty close to mummy who's sitting against a rock in the water which is quite warm.
Then we get out and have a picnic and the kids run around playing - Elana just loves being around Nicola & Micah.
So that's our mothergroup which is fantastic because it gives us all a chance to get away kinda - the kids play and the big ones watch out for the littlies and we get to chat abot everything husbands friends business old stuff kids
We've had two shopping trips and 1 park -- this Friday is park again.
Saturdays are pretty much the same every second Saturday we still go to the markets. A few Saturdays ago Nick had a Lan - oh so fun I slept.
This past Saturday we took Elana to get jabbed pneumococcal and meningacoccal. I stayed out of the room. She reacted a little to one of the needles - a bruise/bump small rash, little bit of a fever nothing to worry about but Nick can't remember which arm got which needle and the nurse didn't write it down so we have no idea what she reacted too.
Wednesdays and Sunday's Nick has pipeband - he's got a competition over Easter Weekend so is practicing alot - he's a drummer.
Wednesday nights Alex comes over to watch Battlestar Galactica with Nick. Last week the traffic was really bad Peter said that it took him and hour to get from Uni to Alex's (who wasn't home_ then another half an hour to get from Al's to our house. He stayed and had dinner, did some work while Nick was out and I talked on the phone/watched McLeods Daughters/Spicks & the Specks and watched Battlestar with the boys when they got here.
Have you seen Spicks & the Specks on ABC - 8:30pm It's this music trivia program but it's along the same lines as Good News Week and The Glass House. It's SO funny and interesting completely up my alley.
I ate so much Pizza two weeks ago. We had Pizza Hut on Monday night because Nick was going to the movies to see Constantine with Peter (and we had Montezuma's the Saturday before because it was my Dad's birthday and that was amazing!!!! - LOVE Montezuma's) the Pizza was late and Peter was early - we had pizza cause we figured it was quick and easy HAH
Then I had Pizza Huton Friday night with Rin and Micah while Nick was at the Jazz Bar with the guys (after the first park day)
Then Saturday was the Lan and James, Alex and Peter came round and we had 1 pizza each - I had a make your own chicken, capsicum & pepperoni from Dominos.
Sunday for breakfast I had leftover pizza and then Monday night my sister came over - she's in grade 12 and Nick was tutoring her - we had Pizza Hut again -- because Nick and I are in love with Pepperoni stuffed crust. (whcih is what we had the previous two times with pizza hut)
Last night (monday) we had mini pizza's made on the bases we bought at the markets - they were homemade but thats the third monday pizza night we;ve had in a row
So I burnt my toast - do you know the BEST and only way to eat burnt toast - Jam. Rasberry jam, apricot jam, strawberry jam PEAR JAM (OH SO GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!) - any kind of jam is the only way you don't have to throw burnt toast away.
We only have rasberry jam right now which I think is the best flavour to have on burnt toast.
Peanut butter, vegemite, honey -- all work great on light toast (honey especially) but JAM is the thing to put with charcoal.
This wouldn't happen if we had a working toaster - Nick put crumpets in our toaster one day - they got stuck and our toaster doesn't work -- the crumpets aren't in there anymore - they came out. But the toaster doesn't work.
Do you know we didn't get a taoster for either our enagement or wedding. No toasters. When y parents renews their vows 3 years ago for their 25th wedding anniversary they got 3. We had to buy a toaster after the wedding. We didn't get an iron either - Rin got 3 of those, or a vacuum cleaner.
We did however get 3 rice makers. 3 stick blenders (one of which was actually one of those adaptable ones with a whisk and a processor bit and a mashing bit and a cup) a food processor/blender combo and a steamer (an electric steaming machine) as well as an electric wok, 3 saucepan sets and 5 dinner sets (only 2 of which matched)
