More Mountain Biking

In the last few weeks I’ve done an 180 degree about turn. Now I’ve got vastly more mountain biking in my bike riding diet… and damn it’s fun! It all started two weeks ago when I did 50kms in 5 laps of Appin during the Appin 400 (Lap 1, 2, 3, 4, 5). Before that(click to read the full post)

Welcome to Spring

JarodandLiz.com is rolling into warmer weather with a new theme, no less than the ninth version we’ve created. Wow. Double digits are next. Who said Liz and I are indecisive and restless when it comes to the layout of this blog? If you’re still viewing this in your reader, please do click through to the(click to read the full post)

Bike Lane Stencil Art

Seriously cool & sums up how I feel about people driving short trips around town. Get on a bike, cause less traffic congestion and get healthier. The artist is Peter Drew, flickr photo by Carlton Reid.

228/365 – Seat Stealer

Train occasionally steals my seat. Never Liz’s (well, rarely). Always mine. I know I shouldn’t let her, but it’s quite hard to argue with sharp claws and a cat that knows how to use them. As such, I sit on the IKEA BEKVÄM Stool.

225/365 – Holy crap we own a dining table!

Liz will post more details in the coming days regarding the awesomeness of our new dining table. But for now rest assured that it is indeed… awesome. But perhaps it’s just a novelty, seeing as we’ve not had one for the three years we’ve been together.

It’s a Bear!

I’ve never met two cats that are more affectionate at dinner/breakfast time than Bear & Elvis**. This is Bear. For the record, Train is affectionate when requesting food, but in more of a ‘feed me or I will devour your soul‘ kinda way. ** I’m sure more affectionate cats exist, but I’ve not met them(click to read the full post)

Marshmallows!

This morning we received a delivery of marshmallows, thanks to me entering random competitions over at Gourmet Rabbit. Jarod was extremely restrained and waited until I was home from work before opening a packet. These aren’t just any marshmallows, by the way. These are home made passionfruit marshmallows from Innocent Catering… and they’ve been packaged(click to read the full post)

240/365 – Exploring Callan Park

Today, Jarod convinced me to go bike riding. In search of kitties. And to look at old, mostly unused buildings. Sure it’s not hard to identify the ‘Cat Cottage’ when you find it, but there sure are a lot of buildings in Callan Park. And my cat radar was spot on. I got to see(click to read the full post)
