Woo Hoo Wednesday!

The week has rolled around again, very quickly!

My Woo Hoo's this week:

* finally finished my french knitting cupcake! Made a block with 8 nails, so put dacron inside the 'tail' to keep it's shape. Mini buttons for sprinkles and stuck corduroy material round a container as the bottom part.
* enjoyed a YUMMY roast beef meal the other night with all the trimmings, been soo long since we have cooked one - it was delicious!
* had a great relaxing long weekend doing nothing! Just mucking round home with the kids, was lots of fun.

..... and, the biggy .....

this friday I get to make something off my bucket list! (ie the list of things I want to do before I ... you know!).
Having grown up in a house with a Dad and brothers who love to watch car racing, I had decided that I would love to have a go in a race car. More precisely I have always wanted to do 'hotlaps' in a V8 race car - ie you sit strapped into the passenger seat of the car (complete with overalls and helmet) while the driver races you around the circuit - very fast! I know it's not for everyone and come Friday morning I will probably be having second thoughts, but it's all planned. DH and I are heading to Timaru with a few others, to the Levels racetrack for a few terrifying laps in one of the NZ V8 cars.
So stay tuned for Friday's 'F....F.... Far-out Friday post' - LOL!

The cupcake is just the cutest! jess is on the cupcake list of lovers and got the sweetest little cupcake earrings from Kleins closing down sale.
I was lucky enough to win a prize when I was in my 20's and got to do laps in a Holden at Teratonga - major major adrenaline buzz - cant wait to hear how you loved it!
