The week in picspam!!
Aug. 21st, 2006 04:36 pmA few pics from the last week...
At the JadeCon teacup auction this year, I ended up winning a really nifty Star Wars Celebration III throw blanket. I brought it home and tossed it over one of the banana chairs in the living room... where we've discovered that Zoƫ really enjoys curling up under the watchful eye of Darth Vader!
So,
corellian_sugar, did you know you were giving us a darksider cat?

Our passionfruit plant has sprouted four flowers so far, most of which just fell off. However, we discovered a few weeks ago that we actually have one fruit growing! Squee!!!! Now we just have to hope it'll reach maturity...

And, lastly, I've been really pleased with the availability of imported foods around the area... one of our local grocery stores even started carrying Fantastic brand rice crackers recently and they've carried Vegemite forever (shelving it over with the peanut butter and Nutella and other spreads). Earlier this week, however, I stumbled across this in the baking section (pic taken with my cellphone).
When grocery shelving policies go horribly awry... because, heaven knows I always use Marmite on cake! *shudder*
