Holly's Hobbie



I keep trying to explain to Aussie folk what a biscuit is. I made my first attempt at baking biscuits last night, along with some country gravy. My flatmate was horrified that I was pouring sausage gravey over the top of what he imagined to be a cookie of sorts! Yum, sausage gravey and oreos! Anyway, I will be tweaking the recipe in the next few weeks. I know it's been a long time since I've had a recipe up on the raider, so bear with me.

Anyway, on to some random crap, since it's Friday and all...

While making my biscuits last night, I turned the on the T.V. and actually had to witness the head on car crash craptastic creation that was Stooged. My god. I don't even have words to describe the lameness.


Leo Sayer, of "You Make Me Feel Like Dancin'" fame, is suddenly my neighbour. WTF! He was on the radio this morning talking about the chicken at Plumer road in Rose Bay... and he said 'Chook' instead of chicken!


Speaking of radio, I usually listen to Merrick and Rosso during my morning drive, however, fantastic banter aside, the playlist is about enough to make a man jump from his gay French car. It's nice to see the boys have some influence, however, as the traffic report has been recently accompanied by a little Mark Mothersbaugh, from ze Life Aquatic. Guys, may I suggest "Yeah" by LCD Soundsystem for next week?


Does everyone else already know that the Bravery recorded their entire album on an imac, with store-bought microphones? It's news to me. Put that lotion in your fuckin basket, baby...


Just poured myself a bath last night and watched the latest Six Feet Under. Wow, Alan Ball is one brave mother when it comes to story lines. Ok, I get that Nate's demise was foreshadowed by the bird stuck in the kitchen early in the season, but, what's the moral of the story. I mean, where's the Aesopesque conclusion? Maybe it's just that everyone should bang a Quaker before they die.


The King of Thighland once asked me about prospective Aussie lasses to take as his queen. I completely forgot about a candidate! I was watching Entourage the other night, and who should I see, but sexy little Flick from Neighbours, getting her bits out as a Perfect Ten model. Good on' ya Holly Valance, it's a step up from playing a dead body on CSI.


Ok, I'm outy trouty, but before I go, I promised I'd finish up with some Barnicles..
