Cheeseburger Cupcakes, originally uploaded by KateDW.

Seriously, I have seen a lot of creative cupcakes in the last few years. These take the cake.

Go to flickr and watch the whole recipe come together.

Neat diagram. I have to say I’ve never drank a flat white, but I will remedy that immediately!

Here are the promised photos of the square foot gardens. Everything is growing pretty nicely, in fact a few things are primed to escape the chicken coop wire.

I think it’s almost time to harvest some lettuce and spinach. Elise has already eaten two strawberries.

Detroit, originally uploaded by timbu.

I really like the Detroit airport. It looks so European. The exposed red train running in the white terminal makes it look futuristic. The underground tunnel with the crazy art and music is fun but I’m always in too much of a hurry to really soak it in.

Is the rest of Detroit this nice?

I just wish I could bowl this way all the time! There is a tourney at work and I struggle to break into the 170′s. Is there some sort of Wii Sports Camp I can go to?

If you are a sentimental person like me you’ll likely love Up, the new pixar movie. I think this is a movie I’ll definitely go watch again.

I kept having flashbacks to a certain morning in Australia where I saw a house floating by.

Why doesn’t the latest version of Picasa for Windows do drag and drop? It seems like a bug, but a pretty big one to me. 

Maybe they caught on to the fact that people used Picasa to put things into the flickr uploadr and got peeved. No, CNTRL-ENTER is not the right work-a-round, since it doesn’t seem to retain the selection. Hope this gets fixed soonish. No matter how much I try, I can’t seem to love Picasa.

Mac Knife and Cutting Board, originally uploaded by timbu.

I have been using two tiny plastic cutting boards for more than 9 years. They were nicked and unpleasant to say the least. When I saw the kids making something toxic on one, I knew they had to go. Instantly I knew I needed something natural to replace the plastic. Luckily, I was following the saga of Paul Meyer from work who was bootstrapping his dad with a side business making and selling cutting boards.

It is much more satisfying to cut up veggies with my favorite knife and a wood cutting board. The only problem was the board was so pretty I hated to make the first cut. Turns out it doesn’t really show any wear.

Thanks Paul!

If you are like me, you had to look at Paddington Bear in London for yourself.

STS-125 Atlantis Solar Transit (200905120002HQ), originally uploaded by nasa hq photo.

I wish the world spent a lot less on the military and a whole lot more on space travel. Unfortunately, space and military is joined at the hip and will be for the foreseeable future. In any case, this is an inspiring photo for a child of the 80′s who thought the shuttle was a good idea at one time.
