Banana Cupcakes...

Zipped into Spotlight today for some stuff and always go to the cake decorating isle.

And we found these ...

Little Bananas..

So we brought them as we were making banana cupcakes today for Madeline to take to a friends house this afternoon.

Thought they looked cute.

We went today to have a look with friends as Sebastian and his friend Jed are Star Wars freaks...

Then we went thru Science Works to see all the other fun things to do.

We had a great day.

Seb meets a Socceroo ...

Mark Schwarzer the Australian Socceroos Goal Keeper was in Geelong today to sign copies of his childrens books.

Jon took Sebastian to get the books and meet him - he only saw him last Wendesday night..

and also to get his Australian Socceroo t-shirt signed.

There was another Geelong person there who has played with the Socceroos - but I can remember his name - Matthew Spironavic - ?? will go find it.

Lemon Meringue Pie...

My 1st attempt at Lemon Meringue Pie...

It was a bit "tarty" but it was all eaten..

Kids were the judges - like the MasterChef ones....

Seb gave me 8/10 - didnt get a big enough piece

Mad gave me 9/10 - it was too hot !

He had a blast ...and here are a few photos ( thanks to Michelle for these) of the night.

A visit...

After an xray and the dentist telling me extraction or root canal, she recommends extraction...its gone...

My very back wisdom tooth, gone...

I wonder if the tooth fairy will pay a visit and leave the $147 out of pocket costs in the glass for me tonight ???
