It wont last long...

Just like the rest of the world we are trying to undo all the damage we did to our bodies over the Xmas period. So we are just trying to eat a little better and address the balance more in our favour.

So on the menu last night we had Chickpea, Spinach & Shitake mushroom patties with Guacamole and a Tabulae salad. Very nom indeed!



You cant beat home made!

I even managed to drag the wife to the gym for the first time this year (she was not a happy Bunnie), it was hard going but felt good to dust off the cobwebs. Feeling rather 'pooped' now but in a good way......lets see how long it take's before we crack and stuff our face's with chocolate & pop!

What a week...

So it's a Friday and I'm sooooo brain dead.

I have had two model reviews over the past two days and it can take a lot out of you. For those of you that don't know, a model review is when a LEGO designer builds his/her model with other designers by showing them how to build it brick by brick. So you have to remember every brick and where it goes in your model. Thats not to bad for a £9:99 set, but it takes a bit of work when you get up to the £50-100 sets.

So i'm looking forward to a relaxed weekend.......anyhoo.

Me and Fee popped out to see Tara because she 'had some news'! Turned out she got a job at LEGO doing 3D modeling of new elements in my department. Yay Tara! Welcome to the family.

On our way out I checked on 'space log' to see if it had become self aware yet, but so far its still in the early stages of evolution.


"It's alive! ALIVE!"


Its starting to grow some Pink buds now, pretty...but scary at the same time.

Well, I'm off to enjoy my weekend...

Ps.

Is this not the most round Avocado you have ever seen?

pps.

Do I need to get out the house more?

Tired of Avocado's?...no, just tired.

Man, what a day!

I just seems like you get less and less time to design at LEGO these days.

We (the team) had a talk about dead lines today, and boy is it going to be a tough one. We have a lot to build in a short space of time and there is the Danish summer holiday coming, so nothing can be done in July. Combine that with a wedding coming up and you have yourself a stressful few months.  Boo!  :(

I know I promised pics of my finds at the junk shop, but that will have to wait until I have the energy to pick up a Camera....sorry.

But in other news I have become addicted to Avocado's...a little random I know but I cant seem to stop eating them. I have a big pile at work and a load at home.  Can you 'OD' on light green tasty mush?  Mmmmmmmm.

Nom!
