Blogger Confessions Part 1


I'm one of these people who just like to know stuff.
Random stuff, facts, figures, pointless information - I'm just a bit of a sponge!
I love getting to know more about other bloggers,
so I thought maybe you might like to know a little more about me!

I love breakfast so much and have so many ideas for breakfasts that I plan them days ahead. This means it can be Monday afternoon and I'm already anxiously awaiting the arrival of Thursday's breakfast.

I love to bake/cook things people would never think of making. Soft pretzels, you bet! English muffins, why not? 

I used to be scared of baking with yeast because I thought I wouldn't activate it properly and my creation would be a big, flat, fail! Now, yeast and I have become good friends - though I still think it smells like old people.

I freeze just about everything that could possibly be frozen - my freezer is piled with muffins, breads, pretzel dough, cookie dough, fruit (especially banana), pesto, cheese - you name it! I've actually considered buying a standalone freezer just so I can bake more.

I eat spinach like it's my job. I can not for the life of me understand how people eat measly plain lettuce salads - for me its go big or go home! That said, I don't think I could ever drink a green monster, the whole concept grosses me out!

I'm turning into the muffin woman. I think I've baked a batch of muffins at least once a week for the last month or two. I love super dense bran muffins and I've been experimenting with flavours - pumpkin, blueberry, banana, zucchini, carrot, apple, lemon etcetc.

Speaking of pumpkin, I'd never tried it in a sweet food until I made pumpkin muffins. Now I'm hooked and looking for pumpkin recipes left, right and centre. Pumpkin muffins with peanut butter are to. die. for.

I really like William Shatner and I'm not certain why, I guess because he's a genius? But please, lets just ignore his star trek days.

Speaking of Star Trek, I severly dislike science fiction. This may be because my parents reaaaaaaaaaally love it and I've had to endure boring shows like Star Gate and every other show with Star in the title. 

I get really excited over new food finds. Yesterday, I found date spread and it probably made my day. Date and Peanut Butter sandwiches? HELL YEAH!


Nowwwwww,
I think that's enough confessions for one day.
But who knows, I may do another one - what do you think?

But I want to know
What's something the blog world doesn't know about you!

The container drawer...

I don't know about you, 
but my container drawer has a few problems.

The first one is that it's just not big enough,
every time you open the drawer, 
it's a struggle to rearrange all the containers so that they fit.
The second is that it eats lids
just like your washing machine might eat socks.

I can never seem to find the right lid to match the container I want.

But the geniuses at RubberMaid have answered my plea for help!
Let me introduce you to Easy Find Lids.

The lids snap into the bottom of the container and lock into place so they don't get lost in that evil drawer!
It's actually kinda like lego, for grown ups 
and all the containers nestle into one another so they stack really well!

Compared to other containers they take up minimal room in the drawer or cupboard
thanks to their graduating sizes!


I was sent a set of seven to review
and I was really impressed.

At first I thought, 
How in the world am I going to review containers?! 

But, I confess... 
I have a container obsession.
Actually, that obsession carries over to other things like zip lock bags. 
Basically, I like to be organised.

So these were actually really good to receive
plus! the containers are really strong and durable
and they're microwave, freezer and dishwasher safe!

So if you're like me, 
run out to the store and grab yourself some Rubber Maid
Easy Find Lid Containers
and we can take on the evil container drawer! :P

So tell me, 
do you have a weird obsession? 

I think I should right a list of confessions.. hmmm
