Things I'm into right now:



Mmmmm lemon in ice cold water! I had a craving for this mid summer and its become my drink of choice as of late. It's so bloody refreshing and lovely on a hot sunny day!



Come Dine With Me

I fucking love this British TV show! They take 4-5 strangers each of whom has to host and cook a three course meal for the other contestants all the while vying for a 1,000 pound prize. Well you can only imagine several strangers with several types of personalities getting together every evening over the course of a week. Favorite quote from a guest reading the menu "that sounds absolutely disgusting but it has rum in it so I'll give it a bash"! And another as she was scoring the host "Tonight has been horrendous, it has been something I have never come across in all of my years on this earth". Here's a short clip on Youtube of another episode that's funny!




Skull and Bones Ice Cube Tray
I was out shopping around at my favorite store downtown and came across this lovely tray! How much fun is this?!?! I was thinking of putting some food colouring into the water just to see how the coloured cubes stand out! You can see from the photo that it's hard to see the details in the two I popped out but whatever, they're still super cute!!!




Helios Heating Pad

Best invention ever!! I've always seen these things at kiosks in the States and I've always wanted to get one but never have....until now!!! You basically snap a small coin inside of the pad and voila it heats up to 130 degrees in seconds. The Helios Pad is perfect for my desk at work as my regular heating pad has a short cord and needless to say is a pain in my arse when I've hurt my back.

I love that ice cube tray! Awesome!

I remember seeing Come Dine w Me on TV the first time I was in the UK several years ago and thinking it was a neat idea for a show.

I can't handle your blog anymore! It's nuts. That video was really gross. I don't plan to watch that show. British people are hilarious.

I have a penis icecube tray for bachelorette parties!

Miss Ash said...

Lindsey, thanks me too!!

Jennifer, you snap a small coin like thing inside and the liquid turns into hot crystals. You have to boil the bag when you are finished to reset the bag.

Rawbean, Ha! I just loved that one lady who had to leave at the end of that one cause she was sooo disgusted! Funniest show ever i'm tellin ya!

I love your ice cube tray, that sounds hilarious!

I loves me some ice water with lemon, and I order it everytime I go out to eat because at least for the meantime around here, it's still FREE.
