Bridgets et al,
I am sure i have the winning combo - but do you think i can find the numbers. 90 Million AUD has been won by 2 people. Me and someone else.
I know i wont be able to sleep until i see the complete set of numbers!
Apparently the lotto result website has crashed! Good grief. There are only 20 million Australians, what is going on. I am sure many of them are under-aged and won't have tickets.... half will still be watching the Michael Jackson thing unfold... and the other desperados are probably like me....waiting to see our wishes confirmed in writing....common!
Anxiously awaiting, Bridget

Bridget's Cooking classes
Lazagna
1kg of hormone free mince
500 g of ricotta
1 packet of pre-cooked lazagna pasta sheets
1 packet of frozen spinach
500g of tomato pasta sauce (try different varieties for different tastes)
roast capsicum (optional)
250 g mozarella cheese (shredded)
100 grams of parmesan cheese (grated)
Method:
to make the mince - put the whole lot into a large saucepan and cover the mince with water. Bring to the boil, breaking the mince up so it all gets to cook. Cook for 20 minutes. Drain the fatty deposits on the water into the bin. Add the entire tomato sauce into teh mince and stir well. Cook for an additional 10 minutes.
To assemble lazagna, simply arrange alternating layers of mince, ricotta (crumble into smaller pieces in your hands), pasta, then mince, defrosted spinach, capsicum, pasta, then repeat this 2 more times.
Cover the top with the 2 cheeses. The parmesan makes the cheese layer nice and crunchy. Yum!
Cook for 30 miuntes on 180 degrees and allow to sit for 10 minutes before serving.
Eat with a salad.
Unless you have a very large baking dish, you will need 2 baking dishes for this recipe.

State of Origin Bridget style
Bridgets around the world,
tonight on the East Coast of Australia a few gladiators are going to battle on the rugby field in Sydney. IT is called our State of Origin Footy - and involves NRL players representing the states (or A grade clubs) where they originally started playing NRL. Thus there is only 2 teams , QLD and NSW. It is the best of 3 games.
The hype is worth watching, the pre-game entertainment, the radio and tv reports - It's War - they keep reminding us.
While i am glued to the action on the telly, I hope to do my nails, drink some wine and sms a few people.
GO Queenslanders GO!

Bridgets,
this is the easiest, low maintenance, yummiest soup.
Ingredients:
1 kg of bacon bones
4 cups of vegetables chopped (include what is on sale at the grocer - these will normally "be in season " vegetables.
water to cover the bones
herbs such as parsley, oregano, sage, garlic
Following the short - very amateur - clip:

Energy Drinks banned in Schools - protect older Bridgets too
Bridgets
So it is..another thing that isn't good for us... Energy Drinks. So why are they so easily bought? They are trying to ban these drinks from Schools and help protect our junior Bridgets (great idea), but what about us older Bridgets?
Just because we drive cars, have bank accounts, use Facebook instead of My Space (good grief some of us still use the good ol' phone to communicate) doesn't mean that we have the will power to NOT purchase energy drinks.
I reckon your energy levels get used up quicker than when you are a junior Bridget...
Please protect our energy vulnerabilities too. If the drinks are dangerous - take them off the shelf.
I think i need a nap or coffee now, i'm tired after concentrating for so long,
Adios Bridget

Swine Flu
Bridgets
Has anyone noticed that Swine Flu is really the German pronounciation for Wine Vuu - which is really a new perfume released by an innovative Bavarian. This big beat up about it being a flu has been a co-incidence - hasn't it....?

who is the perfect Bridget
Bridgets
today i am trying to define via one single image all that depites a "modern day bridget". It's actually easier to talk about it than to narrow it down with a photo.
We are white, black, skinny, normal and cuddly, we are us!
We are normal, every day chicks trying to be the best we can!
It's actually really hard to depict that in a photo - we all are gorgeous - we are woman (hear us roar!)! we are simply trying our best. Don't get on our backs - just jump on our band wagons - all of us go much better with encourgaement - contrite or otherwise- we don't care - just encourage us!
have a great Sunday Bridgets

Bridget re-invented
Bridgets
I love the fact that in our current world you can re-invent yourself.
I am smart - just like you, but at times we chose a particular path that has all the bells and whistles of appeal, the new us, but transpires to be "not the best choice" for us in the long run.
You know what i mean - a decision to date a particlar guy - a gamble.... a decision to sms someone - a gamble..... a decision to try something new on the menu - a gamble....
Don't persecute yourself - we all do it.
The decision you make is the best one, at that point in time. If it is a dud- go back to the drawing board. If it is a pattern of repeat duds and "my GOD!, I;ve done it again 1@#@!# Why didn't I see that coming"!? Then we need to do some serious self reflection - well you do anyway.
So everyone has the opportunity to re-invent themselves. That is not in question. What is in question is: Do you know what you want to re-invent to and how what decisions do you need to make at critical times in your life for you to achieve this?
Bye for now, Bridgets
