Hair-spiration

Always 2 steps ahead of the current fashion, I have decided that bobs are out, out, OUT! The new hair-to-do will be a fresh pixie crop coloured lavender, teal or fairy floss. Summer fun and delicious to look at. Inspired by Edie Sedgewick, Michelle Williams and whatever googled pulled up when i searched pixie crop!

Cherry Ripe Cake Re-Invention

So, last night I reinvented my Cherry Ripe Cake into cupcake form. I am the Madonna of baking.

I donated them to the Vegan Bake Sale in Newtown and they were bought up in minutes! Very exciting for me! Of course I never remember to take a good photo, so here is a dodgy iphone pic instead.

RSPCA CUPCAKE DAY 2010

Once again, I will be participating in the annual RSPCA Cupcake Day.
Last year I raised about $200 and this year I aim to raise even more. You can donate money to sponsor me and if your donation is generous enough I may even bake for you personally on request!
*All my cupcakes are vegan and cruelty free*
No animals should be harmed in order to help other animals!

You can donate here and leave a comment if you would like something baked in return!

Sunday Kind of Love

In 5 weeks time we will be moving in to our new house. I am beyond excited that we will have a massive kitchen with a fantastic oven and stove top. I have started collecting pictures of things that have been inspiring me to get back into baking.
Here are a few things that are teasing my tastebuds right now

One of my absolute favourite Flickr People is Amy. I want to eat everything she bakes and takes photos of. I would move to America for this reason alone! I suggest you check out her Flickr.

A few things from the supermarket

Finding foods labelled with the word Vegan are few and far between. Reading labels has become second nature to our kind. Here are a few things I have found lately with the word VEGAN on them. Woo Hoo!

Sorry about the photo quality. These are pics from the iphone.

Seven Things

Tagged by the lovely Beecah from Blinking Flights I shall now share seven fun facts about me.

1. I am quite small. I think I am bout 5'1 at most. My feet are also small. Size 4. Apparently good things come in small packages, so i'll leave it at that.

2. I am a keen baker and would love to own my own bakery come cafe. Of course I would live upstairs from it so I could breathe in the delicious smells all day and night.

3. I love Wes Anderson movies. My favourite being the Royal Tenenbaums.

4. I am going to start a sister blog to this one about my escapades in cooking and veganising food from the Maltese Culture. My partner is Maltese and his family have some great food which has vegan potential.

5. I enjoy reading Bukowski, Vonnegut, Palahnuik and Murakami

6. My favourite musicians are Elliott Smith, Rocky Votolato, Dead Man's Bones, Lady Gaga, Nirvana and Jawbreaker

7. I collect Little Golden Books. I currently have about 170.


I'm tagging Mandee, Cate, Renee, Lauren and Sarah
