Sloth Football League

Went to the footy at Adelaide Oval tonight. Doza snuck along too! He even sported (see what I did there) a new guernsey just for the occasion. It was a little fast-paced for him but I think he got the gist. Took him a while to realise that the siren had gone and unfortunately our team lost though. Oh well. I think sloths would like a game more like golf, or lawn bowls… something that puts you to sleep…dozafootball

Feel like some baking this weekend?

These look amazing! I probably won’t bake any sloth cupcakes this weekend unfortunately, but I thought I might try macarons again. The first (and only) time I tried them, they tasted good, but looked awful. I think I might try and perfect them if I have time in the next two days. About time I learned a new technique. Me thinks chocolate is the way to go. slothcupcakes1 slothcupcakes2

Sloth Beauty (and Brooch)

Just started watching American Beauty for the first time in my life (don’t worry, it’s paused). Apparently it’s supposed to be good, so we’ll see!

On the topic of love and flowers, I really like this v. cute brooch from Etsy!

Stranded Sloth

You are a sloth. You’ve climbed onto the wrong branch and have become prey! You are now at the bottom of the food chain. The only way to defend yourself is to throw faeces at the attackers! Download for iPhone and iPad.

Teaching Times

I’ve been demonstrating and helping out with the undergrad practicals this semester. It’s only two weeks in and I’m exhausted! I haven’t done any of my own work and am definitely falling behind. Tonight I sat down (at 9:30pm) to do some marking, and realised I’d left everything at work. So that was useless. Feeling a bit run down! But just thinking of the (good) money that will come to me at the end of it. Short term pain, as they say. Might as well make me earn it!
