sunshine and lollipops.

Okay, so I've referenced my birthday in a few of my previous posts: All Aboard

Finally, last Saturday, on a glorious sunny day, I had my birthday boat trip with some of my favourite people.

Here, are a few snapshots from the day - the highlight was obviously the amazing cake created by Thu McKay from Cakes 2 Cupcakes!!! I was curious one day and upon my curiosity (stalking) on facebook, I came across a fan page for Cakes 2 Cupcakes. Now, as mentioned in all previous posts, I am dead set a savoury lover, nonetheless, I was intrigued by the amazing cupcakes creations. I've seen friends and others post photos of baking adventures and whatnot, however, I've never seen such a creative AND innovative take on cupcakes before! I sent Thu a picture of some red wedges and asked her whether it'll be possible to have these instead of the heels she'd normally create as they are "more me" and voila, she delivered the goods :)


I'd highly recommend anyone who is thinking of ordering a cake for their next big event (engagement, birthdays, christening, weddings etc) to contact Cakes 2 Cupcakes or at least check out her fan page on facebook! She is not only creative, she craves challenges so will cater to any personal requests!!!

Speed of light.

Owning a piece of luxury designer item is what some would define as "lucky". As times are getting tough, and we are nearing yet another (possible) economic crisis, consumers need to be more savvy with their spending.

Purchasing a pair of designer sunglasses will take both factors into consideration; owning a piece of designer item and spending wisely!

Some astronomical/scientific facts for you;
1. The sun shines approximately 300 days in Colorado (USA)
2. During 90 days of summer, the sun shines approximately 54 days in Australia.
3. UV Rays from the sun are harmful, sunglasses helps protect your eyes from these harmful rays.

As always, these answers are from google, if you're planning on using these answers on some millionaire quiz show, I'd advise you otherwise =P

Back to the point, sunglasses are a good investment as you will utilise its full potential by wearing them almost everyday! It is by far the most valuable, practical and cheapest option to owning something designer!

If only I practice what I preach *sigh*
