Our Maternity Photoshoot

On Sunday 18th March 2012 Me, Cody and Roxy had some maternity photos taken. I LOVE how they turned out!

Considering Roxy was being difficult we got some really good photos. We took her over to the lake by herself to get a nice background, Roxy didnt like being out on her own very much but we managed to get some ok photos.

Now if only I can train my husband to smile and not poke his tounge out well be set.

Here are the results:

 

Marmite Crisis!

Once again the Christchurch earthquakes have disrupted our everyday live's.

Our beloved Marmite is currently suffering a worldwide shortage.

The reasoning? Earthquake damage to a cooling tower at the company's Christchurch factory rendered the nearby Marmite building unsafe. Surely there is another building they could use?

So this whole 'crisis' got me wondering..... I wonder who thought of making a yeast based, black tar-ry substance to spread on toast. So I investigated the 'Birth of Marmite' pretty much it came about in the dark ages (pre 1680) when some dutch scientist found a use for the discarded yeast that's been used to ferment sugars into alcohol

Over the years the process has been refined to get the spreadable goodness we have today.

And of course there is an influx of Marmite on TradeMe now - its just the same as when they took Snifters away (still a touchy subject)

They are selling for ridiculcious prices. One guy is asking $800 for his jar - I don't love it THAT much buddy.

Marmite is definitely one of those pantry essentials that you take for granted until they tell you that you cant have anymore.

I know its not the 'be-all-and-end-all' but it is still a major inconvenience considering Marmite just so happens to be my latest pregnancy craving.

I love Marmite and cheese either in a sandwich or on crackers. Marmite and cheese on toasties is even better!

I was discussing this with one of the ladies at work. My all time favourite use for Marmite is to spread it on luncheon meat!!!! We always had luncheon and Marmite sandwiches for school lunches as a kid - apparently this is weird? Another favourite was Marmite and lettuce sandwiches - again apparently weird.

She then went on to tell me about her favourite Marmite combo, Poached eggs on toast WITH MARMITE! And I'm weird!

What are some of your favourite Marmite combinations??

Maternity Photos

This Sunday me and Cody are getting our Maternity Photos done. We have hired a local 'up-and-coming' photographer to do our photos.

For something different - well not different for me but out of the usual for others - Roxy will again star in the photos. She was also in our wedding photos so its kind of fitting that she is in our maternity photos too.

The photographer asked me to send her through some inspirational photos of the types of photos I like. So I started having a look through good olde Google and found these amazing photos.

I really liked these ones which were more 'horsey' focused and these ones of the couple sitting on the ground with the horse in the background.

I cant wait for our shoot on Sunday, I have a few outfits to use. Watch this space for the final results!

While on my Internet search I also found some real 'beauties' - not 100% sure what these people were thinking, but check these puppies out!
