And the Verdict Is...!

Well it wasn't really a competition but I have had an overwhelming response from people that I should continue my blog when I return home so I will be doing just that :) Speaking of votes, mom, Jan, and I got REALLY into Master Chef Australia when they visited and I have to say that Australia's overall response to the show is just massive.  Over 10% of the population tuned in (more than the percentage for American Idol) and the upcoming election debate was postponed an hour so that it would not interfere with the competition :)  Amazing what TV can do! ha ha.  Although I am not up to their caliber I do have some recipes that I have been changing/ working with etc and I will be sure to start writing more about my cooking in the months to come.  And finally, here are two more of my recent paintings that I have completed for Todd and Russ.  I still have two more in my brain at the moment and am looking for some "get my butt into gear" inspiration :)

guitar though, neither him nor Todd knew what it was :) ha ha

Multi panelled painting for Todd; he loves lines and angles; hence the triangles;
I made if for him to decorate his living room while he sells his apt
