Lusse Christmas buns

Oh for fudge's sake!

I just realized it will be a christmas without snow OR Lussekatter!!!

For those of you who remain clueless as to what miraculously amazing thing Lussekatter is, I wish to inform you all that you suck and need to go slap yourselves... right now! Because you are helping spreading a massive and dangerous disease commonly referred to as UNAWARENESS!

Or let me put it in simpler terms; Lussekatter are quite possibly the most important Christmas invention since Fudge Chocolate Cake. And while some of you might potentially argue fudge chocolate isn't particular to Christmas, I would like to inform all of YOU that chocolate is particularly relevant to absolutely all holidays. And other days. And nights. And anywhere else it fits.

Lussekatter, however, are Christmas treats. That may rule parts of Scandinavia during December. We don't have polar bears but we certainly have saffron with raisins on top.

Oh, somedays I do miss those long icy dark days...

Whatever happened to Betty?

Whatever happened to Ugly Betty?

Remember when she was all the hooplah, and everything from Billboards to Gino to crazy fashionable poncho wearing Beckhams were obbsessed with TVs latest sweetheart?

I hear rumors that they are indeed still on air. Which means someone must be watching. Which in turn means they must still be churning out some form of storylines. But then Eastwick came along and... either Rebecca Romjin has a twin with a flair or that's Daniel's brother-turned-sister (should I still have a spoiler warning for any newcomers to this?)?

And didn't Daniel at some point get a son? And that guy.. from Harpers... And that teeny bop series ages ago! With the glasses? Henry!! No, wait... Was that his name here too? Right, anyway, didn't he get preggers with missy red hair from Glee (love her bthw! she must sing more!)? And Gino left for some reason. Maybe to go back to making dead people look creepily pretty on TV? No? And the Mead matriarch started a new mag and someone froze someone elses sperm to get preggers and get a part of the company? Oh, and there was Kiss, right?!

Okay, well, anyways, my point is how did this show fall so far and fast? I mean, Desperate Housewives is apparently doing great still, with planes from Lost crashing in and renewals of contracts for years and years! And speaking of Lost... Time travel? Really!!? And Grey's is... well, anyway, Betty was so sweet and quirky and funny and different. How come they didn't take?

Is the poncho no longer funny? Or did Betty get too pretty in her makeover ala network style?

LMAO!

...and I hate that 'word'! But anyways...

Haha, just got this link sent over to me and it actually took me a while to realize who he was! But anyways, enjoy the power of tweets and a carefully structured plan of taking over the world through minions here!

Some select quotes from the man with the plan of world dominance through chocolate and minions (aka Mischa Collins) -

"So we need a name 4 our war that both boosts recruitment & maintains the element of surprise. I propose: The Mint-Chocolate Experience."

"Why does everyone dread prison? I played more shuffleboard in a week than I had in a decade. I asked to stay on, but they needed the bed."

Rihanna on 20/20 - It's never ok to hit someone...

Rihanna's 20/20 interview is available (all thre HQ parts) on youtube, check it out. Heavy stuff, regardless of what you think of the show and how it was promoted...

Domestic abuse is never all right. Hitting a woman (or a man, or a kid, or anyone) in rage or otherwise is never ok. And there's never a reason that justifies any abusive actions, there's just not. And those who actually strike, or defend this behaviour, need to desperately grow a bloody pair. Just saying...

Pink bras and f-words

Another day of filming, off 'work' time though. Did a comedy sketch (or a heap of em really), including a crazy little gem featuring two grown men in bed with pink bras, Amsterdam-hooker-style make up, and lots of strange blackberry marketing placements.

I'm assuming this won't qualify them for an endorsement deal though.

Anyway, should be good fun seeing the finished thing on screen, even though the script sorta fell short half-way due to pouring rain and failing spirits towards the end of the day. It's to go with a big stand-up comedy act though, so I'm thinking what we got will hold.

Back to the exhaustion... Sunday night and I've only just realized I spent my only two free days running around like a mad woman. At least the wallet is thicker (i.e. can afford a cuppa tea tomorrow morning...).
