Kitty's Corner

STICKY POST

Guestbook

Hi, and welcome to my corner of the web.

You can find a little bit of everything here on my blog: my own photos, movie reviews, recipes, thoughts about this and that, funny stuff and other things that springs to mind. There's also a series of posts about norse mythology here.

Feel free to comment on whatever you find interesting, and please leave your mark here in my guestbook. It'd be nice if you write where you come from - it's fun to see visitors from all over the world.

Let the blogging begin - have fun! :up:

Just a cute little story

,

One of my friends has a six year old niece, and they are having very interesting conversations. Like the other day:

Niece: It's fun about birthdays, huh?
Friend: Yes, it is.
Niece: I was born in, umm, June, in 2003.
Friend: Yes sweetie, that's true. That's six years ago.
Niece: Uh huh. When were you born??
Friend: I was born in November, in 1975.
Niece: 1975. <thinks> What war was going on back then?
Friend: <suddenly feels very old>





Have a nice weekend! :up:

Chocolime Cake

,

It's been a while since I invented a cake - so I thought it was about time. :yes:

ZRS (Zaphira's Recipe Service) proudly presents:
Zaphira's very own Chocolime Cake

Ingredients:
3 eggs
250 gram sugar (8.8 Oz.)
3 large tablespoons cocoa
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 nips salt
3 large spoonfulls yoghurt
grated peel + juice from one lime fruit
150 gram flour (5.2 Oz.)
2 teaspoons baking powder

Whip eggs and sugar till it's almost white.

Ad cocoa, vanilla and salt and mix again.

Ad the yoghurt and the peel and juice from the lime and stir.

Mix the flour and the baking powder and stir it into the rest of the batter.

Pour into a tin foil coated with baking paper and bake at 200 degrees Celcius for 25-30 minutes. If you like a cake that's a bit "sticky" inside, then bake it about 5 minutes less.)

Serve as it is or with whipped cream or crème fraîche :yum:

Enjoy. :happy:

The Transforming Transformers

,

Those of you who have followed my blog for a while know that one of my friends made a huge transformation from male to female. And no, I won't mention any names. Most of you will know who I'm talking about. :D

It happens that the guy person really likes Transformers. I always thought that that was more a guys thing than a girls thing, so I wondered where the fascination came from. I get it now - it seems that I'm wrong. Transformers are for girls too:

White Christmas

, ,

Will there be white Christmas in Catfiania this year?

The definition of a white Christmas is if 90 percent of the land is covered by at least a half millimetre of snow. We haven't had a white Christmas here since 1995.

Statistically we have snow on Christmas eve every 14th year, and that means that we should be up for one this year. Meteorologists say otherwise though. Temperature rises because of the global warming: From 1961 to 1990, the average temperature for December has been 1.6 degrees Celcius. Last year, however, the temperature for the month was 2.6 degrees Celcius. If this continues, the temperature for December will be 4.6 degrees by the year 2100.

We have had only seven white Christmases since 1915.

I guess we'll just have to wait and see what happens...

Tramp Stamp

It is so weird when something that's permanent suddenly turns into fashion. I'm talking about tattoos right over the ass crack, that suddenly got so popular. Tramp stamps, you know. A tattoo that's often flashed by bicycling girls, who thinks everybody is enjoying having a look at it. :rolleyes:

I never wanted one - they never really interested me. But I feel like sharing a couple of more.. alternative... tramp stamps, in this post.

The plumber tramp stamp:


The "informative" tramp stamp:


The dedicated fan tramp stamp:


The "I'm definitely not a vegetarian" tramp stamp: :D


And this picture seems just a perfect way to end this post....


First Sunday in Advent

,

December is coming up very shortly. Normally I'd only post about Christmassy things in December, but I have to make an exception with this post. Today is first Sunday in Advent!

I've come to the conclusion that there's way too little pampering going on in my life these days - so I've decided to do something about it. Like last year I will buy myself one little present for each Sunday in Advent, starting today. Not expensive things (that's not the plan anyway) - but little things that makes me smile.

Today I got myself a Christmas calendar - and the bonus about the calendar is that there's a chance of winning 1 million kroner on it! :yes:



The concept is that you scrape away one number each day in December, and if you've got enough alike figures by the 24th of December, you'll win something.

Wish me luck! :heart:


Creepy Crawly

, ,

The Copenhagen Zoo has an entire section of creepy crawly. Sometimes I'm lucky to get a few good shots of the little insect.

Look at this - it's an insect that survives by looking like a branch:


The poisonous frogs are so fascinating. I think it's amazing that some tribes have actually used the frogs' poison to make their arrowheads deadly when hitting the target!


Other little beetles had their breakfast. :D


Living in the modern age

Have a nice weekend! :heart:

Girls don't always want to have fun!

,

I heard a song on the radio that caught my attention. The tune was catchy and I loved the words. The message this band was sending, just makes so much sense! The band is called "Melody club", and the song is "Girls don't always wanna have fun", from the album "Goodbye to romance".

Melody Club was formed in 2000 and its five members are from Växjö, Sweden. Their music can be described as a mix of Synthpop and Glam rock. I got their album now, and I love it. Listen for yourself to hear if you like it! :up:

Check the video out on Youtube here.

Lyrics to "Girls don't always wanna have fun":

Some girls go crazy on the dance floor
And that's all they wanna do
So boys
Lay low
Some like to sex you up hardcore
Yes some of them really do
But boys
Lay low
Because girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun

Some skirts are shorter than others
Some skirts are really tight
But boys
Lay low
Some dress in a million colours
And some dress in black and white
But boys
Lay low
Because girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun

You think you're gonna get it
You think you're gonna get it tonight
But just because she's teasing
Doesn't mean she's easy

Girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
Girls don't always wanna have fun
No is no
No fun

Lay low
Lay low
Lay low
Lay low
