My very own personalised t-shirt

May 29, 2008 9:17 pm , 6 Comments ,

Someone out there in the world loves me so much that they have created personalised t-shirts for me that feature my name in all its glory.

How many can I put you down for? I’d like a few. Heh. Just kidding.
I have finally discovered what has been happening with my name recently… so many people googling “bronnie” and ending up on my website, which is very understandable I guess.
But really I think they are looking for:

These two guys from Make me a Supermodel, named Ben and Ronnie. We haven’t had this show here in NZ yet. I’m not entirely sure of the whole story. But will email them to thank them for my special t-shirts.

Now back to my game of marshmallow catching and throwing with Rob. :)

Dull days.

Things have been rather dull in Bronnie-land recently. Just been studying for exams and finishing my last damn assignment that never seems to end. 1,500 out of 2,500 words done!

So instead of going on about how dull exam time is when you’re a student and how you lose all your social life and become a recluse in slippers, because it’s cold. I thought I’d upload some photos and the recipe for a meal I cooked tonight.
It’s not a hard meal, it’s one of the most simplest ever. But it’s good to talk about different flavours and herbs with people, as they can give you new ideas.

Tonight I made stuffed chicken thighs.

Recipe below.

Macro Monday: coffee

coffee hit

We used to buy powdered coffee but have now moved up in the world and buy the granule version. I have to admit it tastes so much better.

And have you ever tried to balance coffee on a teaspoon on a bench? Impossible! Hence the spillage. But I think the spillage makes it a bit more authentic.

In other news; someone googled “bronnie naked photos” and found my website. I’m very sorry to disappoint but there are no naked photos of me anywhere. Is there a famous Bronnie that I’m not aware of?

Best

As many may know I work for my Dad, who has his own Chartered Accounting practice, as an accountant while I finish my degree. We are currently flat out churning out accounts as quick as possible while still being careful to know they are correct.
All of my work goes through the practice manager to be reviewed before sending to the clients. Because we are super busy at the moment my Dad and his business partner are helping out the practice manager with her reviewing.
The practice manager told me today that she has caught onto my Dad, because when selecting a job to review he always looks for mine, and avoids the other accountants, because he knows it will all be correct and therefore easy for him to review.
That has to be the best compliment I could receive from my Dad/boss.
