Random Pictures

Of people...









































Of places

















Of animals































I love this picture, but I'm putting it in as a link instead of the actual picture, so people can avoid if they need to. It's a spider caccooning a fly it's caught. Kinda gruesome, but I'm in love with the fact that my camera caught the detail when I took the photo.

And finally, the obligatory random recipe

You will also need:

Add the condensed milk and golden syrup and gently bring to the boil, stirring. Simmer for exactly 1 minute, then stir in the puffed rice. (if you want, you can also add in 100g of raisins, too.) Pour into the prepared tin and leave to set in a cool place.
2. When cool, cut into squares.
