one sunday in springtime

Yesterday morning, just before I woke up, I dreamt I was trying to bake a milk tart. This is odd for a couple of reasons: Firstly, because I Do Not Bake. Ever. Secondly, in the dream I wasn't getting very far because I had every single bowl that I own spread out on the kitchen counter, and I kept putting the ingredients in the wrong bowl - yep, each ingredient in a separate bowl. It was terribly frustrating and let me tell you, it ain't easy to mix dough in a colander. Maybe that's why I don't bake.
And... then I woke up. Hubby went off to make coffee and called me out to the kitchen. Well lo and behold if the Baking Fairy hadn't been busy - I was greeted by the sight of two freshly made milk tarts cooling on the counter. The kitchen was spotless and Cinderella was missing in action. Not to worry - she reappeared a little later with the smug look on her face of someone who had risen early and baked two lovely looking milk tarts. Tee hee! I'd show you a photo but the crumbs that are left don't really make for a good picture.

After breakfast I decided I wanted to go take a photograph in a particular spot, so Hubby and I went for a spin on the bike. Spring is turning to summer really quickly and the canopy of pink blossoms are rapidly falling to become a soft carpet. I took my pet frog out to enjoy the sunshine and the pretty flowers before they all disappear.
According to Hubby I earned a few odd looks taking this, lying down on my stomach in full biking gear :-)

We took the scenic route home and I had the best laugh I have had in a long time. On the way home we pulled up next to a guy in an Audi TT. As cars go, I confess this is one of my favourites. They're sleek, they're pretty, they're fast and they make a really nice growl when pressed.
Da Man in Da Audi was obviously keen to 'play'... he gave us a challenging Colgate smile and blipped his accelerator. This confused me a little because although he was in a pretty, sporty car, hubby and I were on this:

I'm guessing Da Man in Da Audi doesn't know too much about bikes.
Heh. Hehehe.
The lights turned green and the Audi pulled off with a squealing of tyres, the car's engine screaming and roaring.
Hubby gently turned up the throttle and waved goodbye, and we disappeared into the distance as though the poor man was looking for parking.
mwahahahahaha!

It was almost too much for me - THAT, my friends, is the very reason we bought a Blackbird! No - we don't 'dice' everything that moves. We don't need to. Just occasionally, for fun.
