Amazing Creations


Guess what this is made out of?






Yes, everything you see is a cake with the frosting ( or icing if you live in Australia)

The sewing machine and other items look so real it looks like they are the real thing - but,
They are all just cake and frosting.

how fantastic is that?

Christmas in Australia

Aussie Jingle Bells (In a rusty Holden Ute) - sung to tune of jingle bells...

Kicking up the dust
Esky in the boot
Kelpie by my side
Singing Christmas songs
It's summer time and I am in
My singlet, shorts & thongs


CHORUS:
OH, JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
JINGLE ALL THE WAY
CHRISTMAS IN AUSTRALIA
ON A SCORCHING SUMMER'S DAY
JINGLE BELLS, JINGLE BELLS
CHRISTMAS TIME IS BEAUT
OH WHAT FUN IT IS TO RIDE
IN A RUSTY HOLDEN UTE

Engine's getting hot
Dodge the kangaroos
Swaggy climbs aboard
He is welcome too
All the family is there
Sitting by the pool
Christmas day, the Aussie way
By the barbecue!

CHORUS

Come the afternoon
Grandpa has a doze
The kids and uncle Bruce
Are swimming in their clothes
The time comes round to go
We take a family snap
Then pack the car and all shoot through
Before the washing up

CHORUS

Smiley face in the Sky

Last night a REALLY cool, thing happened which could be viewed in the Aussie skys. Just after disk and till about 10pm the planets Venus and Jupiter stared down from the sky like two brilliant diamond eyes. Directly below, the crescent moon formed a happy smiling mouth. Sadly I could not find my camera – despite tipping my room upside down – so I have borrowed this photo from a newslink on the web. I am sure they won’t mind. How cool is this? and yes - this is a photo!!



To our fore mothers and fathers unusual astronomical apparitions were often seen as omens and signs from goddesses and gods. Comets often foretold times of famine - well there is a huge debates on what the Egyptians went through before they released the Israelites ( bible story)

Dr Lomb from the Sydney Astronomy Group has been quoted that he did not believe in such things, but he note that the smiling face will appear on the eve of the next Reserve Bank's meeting at which it will consider interest rates.

"There was an upside-down sad face visible on the morning of April 23, 1998," he recalled. That day's Herald was dominated by news of conflict on Australia's waterfront, protests against child-care costs, big rises in bank fees and executions in Rwanda.


This smiley face will not appear to our cousins in the northern hemisphere.. so suck it up cuz!!

Another smiley face will not grin over Australia until the early hours of July 21, 2036….phew – a wait.
