Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers rcberto - 2008-12-01 11:13 AM Hey team, I'm Rob from Boston. I forgot how much fun challenges are so here I am. 2009 will be my second year in tris. This winter I'm training for a half mary (which one are you going Tinkerbeth?), trying to get a lot stronger on the bike (I'm doing Jorge's program), and I love swimming so I'll fit in 2 or 3 swims a week too.
Hi ROB! Nice to meet you! I know two very good amateur triathletes both called Rob. Maybe its a prerequsite LOL! Great to have you on the team.

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers OK I'll do a little post padding and then I have to go because I have heaps of chores to do today. My fish are drowning in their own crap so I have to vacuum their home. Plus I need to shop for food or we won't eat this week. Plus I need to walk my poor neglected dog. Well, she's not neglected, but with those looks she gives me you'd think she was!!!

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers I'm going to share some photos from my Christmas cake baking expedition on the weekend. I also made a Christmas pudding, I've posted those photos elsewhere so I won't repeat them, plus Phil was very skeptical about my pudding anyway LOL!!!

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers Here is a picture of all the dried fruit, peel and rind soaking in brandy in a big 10L tub. Did I mention I spend $100+ on dried fruit, peel, nuts, flour, sugar and brandy for my 2 cakes and 2 puddings? $%%&%!!!

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers And here is the cake mix, mixing away. It is a combination of 1 lb butter, 1 lb dark brown sugar, 1 lb flour and 9 eggs. See I even converted it from grams to lbs for you That brown colour is from the dark brown sugar. It has a beautiful molasses aroma. Theres also some (actually, a lot!) nutmeg and allspice in there as well as some almond essence.

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers And here is one of the cakes (the recipe made enough batter for 2 cakes) after 5 hours of baking in a slow oven. I had to wrap in many layers of newspaper to stop it burning.

Master 1548 Perth, Australia | Subject: RE: Random Taser me Elmo Cat Stalkers Now I just have to ice it so it looks something like this (I found this photo on the web). I think I need to put on a layer of jam and marzipan first, then so-called "plastic" icing. I prolly won't be adding the tacky little decorations LOL!

Yes! $100+ dollars worth of fruit!!! Have I already mentioned that? Yes there was a lot of fruit - when I added the cake mix to the fruit in that big white bowl, there was just enough cake mix to coat the fruit. Its a really old hand-me-down recipe mum got from an old lady in Kalgoorlie, when we used to live there years ago. She's never made it so I gave it a go
