The Bakings of a Memorable Memorial Day

Today we honor the memory of our nation's heroes.

It's a day of gratitude.

Of dignity.

And, you know, stuff like this:

"Hon hon hon! I em zee embodiment of 'deegnitee!' Wee wee!"*

And speaking of wee wee...

I'm not really sure what this is, but the shape kind of rings a bell.
(I'm thinking...Arby's?)

And speaking of belles, the bodice on this dress could really use some work:

It's LIFT and separate, girls. No Yankee doodle dandy wants saggy clappers, if yaknowwuddamean.

Remember: patriotism is a family affair:

If not necessarily "family friendly."

And for a little "variety," there's always the WTF CCC:

That's "Way To Flotsamize," by the way.

Since today is about our military, though, try to keep the focus on those great men and women who have served in our armed forces.

See how the focal point here is the cookie soldier being run down and fired on by the chocolate tank?

That's NOT what I had in mind.


And finally, you know that feeling of satisfaction you get when a hoity-toity grammar snob corrects your grammar, but s/he's WRONG?

This feels kind of like that.

Quick grammar tip: if you can substitute the word "him," use "whom." But if "he" works, use "who." Ergo, "HE paid," not "HIM paid."

Thanks to Margaret D., Amy W., Andrea P., Holly Anne, Andrea P., Lyndi R., & Becky D., for whom [eyebrow waggle] I will be forever grateful. Or at least until tomorrow.


*John's Disclaimer: This was Jen's attempt at a French accent. See, 'cause the dog is a poodle, and poodles speak French. Although he also looks a bit English with the mustache and goatee. Or maybe a bit like Colonel Sanders. Oh! Who was a Colonel!** In the military!

So, in conclusion, eating KFC today is patriotic, and all poodles speak French. Thank you. That is all.

** John's Disclaimer to the Disclaimer: Actually, he was only a private but was given the honorary title of Kentucky Colonel later in life. Man! You guys*** are picky!

*** John's Disclaimer to the Disclaimer to the Disclaimer: By "guys" I mean people, and not necessarily one gender over another. I could have just as easily used "folks." though that would imply that you live in the country. Which you may not. Okay, I'm done.

Sunday Sweets: Shoes & Purses

Ok, so a few weeks ago when I said I found purse and shoe cakes a little boring, what I *meant* was I'd only find them boring until enough of you wrote in demanding that I feature purse and shoe cakes. Um. Yeah. That's it. ;)

So, by popular demand, here's the best of the best of the best! Sir!

(And just so we're clear: none of these are boring; they're awesome.)

Enjoy.

Oh.My.Gawd. =D

This is just so ridiculous!
Its going to be June soon.
WHY MUST TIME FLIES SO FAST?!
Can't wait for the future tho =)

So...
Yeah, Suzzy's back.
For now.
I'll be sure to start up my blogging again during holidays.
I'm now actually in the middle of my two weeks mid-term exam.

So here's some points for you (viewers) to get update about:
- Teacher's Day was awesome.
I love the Band Wackos.
That includes Joyce and Roger (guitar dudes)
Elijah (damn him for taking the keyboard hahah)
Calvin and Chan Seeng (my partners for violin, both of em' are really good!)
Isaac (crazy guy playing electric guitar, solo)
Jeremy (drums!)
Zhong Hern and other 4 guys (the gendang)

And the Sketch about "Global Warming"
Sue Ki, Joyce, Atiqah, Me
Sara, Ashleigh, Ryan, Kel
We spent so much time together hahah!
Using Drama room nicely,
And we girls danced around the room half-naked while changing into our costumes,
until the boys get fed up and started banging the door xD

And we did our best during performance =)
Was so amazingly happy.
There's something about these people,
whenever I'm around with them,
I can't stop laughing ;)

- Prefect Annual Dinner!
Screw the dress code. I can't find any suitable flowery dress for me!
I'm not a flower girl (frowns at herself)
Still, it's my last year.
So yeah, if it would take me miles to walk in heels to get there,
I will.
...
On the second thought,
I think I rather call a cab.
(Joyce and Atiqah will be there! And that's a BONUS!!)

- Sleepovers (grins)
I'll never get tired of them.
Not with the same people over and over again hahah!
Will update about it ;)

- King&I Play by PFS
Anyone's going?
I am! So is Ki, Atiqah, Ryan, Ashleigh, Jeremy, and more.
Its on 4th of July.
CAN'T WAIT!!

- My cousin's wedding. =)
Aww. Can't believe he's getting married!!
He deserve her ;)
And its going to be a church wedding,
so yeah, I'm gonna love it actually.
Especially the "I DO" part.
*swoons* *grins*
Its on this Saturday, so I'll be leaving on Friday 2-3pm.
Don't miss me people xD
Will come back on Wednesday.

- Exams & Studies
I'm taking my studies rather serious now, than before.
I'm still rather clueless about my future career.
Should I go for my dreams?
Or just stay in Reality?
I dno. =/
Don't wanna think about it right now.

- AFS
In case you have no idea what is it.
Its an exchange students program.
And I applied for it. =)
So I'm now waiting for the letter to come to tell me when's the interview.
CROSS YOUR FINGERS FOR ME PEOPLE!!
I really really really wanna go =)


I guess that is all for now.
So I'll see you guys during holidays (I mean like here, at my blog xD)

Love you
Less than three =D



P.S RAIN RAIN!! =D

P.P.S I'm still staying rather far away from facebook. Don't wanna get addicted to it neemore.

This Weekend, Pig Out

Since Monday is Memorial Day, I thought you guys might appreciate a few food tips before your weekend get-togethers kick off.

Tip #1: So long as you have beer and bacon, all of your male friends will be happy.

Which is why I, as a girl, think it would be hilarious if you substituted all the beer and bacon with beer and bacon cakes, like this one. Just think how pleased the guys will be at the surprise!

Tip #2: Know your pig.

Calm down; I mean the animal.

Sometimes I think a vegan named these things. "Haha! I will name THIS one 'jowl butt,' so NO ONE will EVER want to eat it! Mwuhahahahaa!

Now, who wants some niiice fresh asparagus?"


Tip #3: Sometimes it helps to channel your inner Freddie.

Ewwww.

Tip #4: Or, if you're like me and subscribe to the "no guts; too gory" philosophy of food, try the all-inclusive cooking method:

Just don't forget the apple.
I don't know why. Just...don't.


Bonus: When you're done, you'll have a lovely centerpiece!

"I see you eating that jowl butt. And, yeah, I'm totally judging you."

Never mind all that, though, because the important thing to remember here is the glory of bacon.

Apparently it even makes 40 better. Although what that has to do with a mountain range at sunset is beyond me.

Julie B., Kellie B., Jade B., Dorota, Monica I., & Melissa C., notice how I didn't say anything about head cheese? Yep. Some lines you just don't cross.
