Today I found a web comic on xkcd.com that, unusually, made me laugh out loud.

Hence it qualifies for this blog!

Lemon Chicken

My smile for today is the fantastic lemon chicken that I had for dinner tonight.

It was really simple and easy but very tasty.

1.  Cut up chicken and cover in beaten egg.
2.  Cover chicken in crushed unsalted peanuts.
3.  Fry gently in a little oil until golden.
4.  Remove from the heat and place aside.
5.  Gently fry some onions until they are clear.
6.  Add a packet of Blue Dragon Lemon Chicken sauce.
7.  When the sauce is boiling add a handful of sweet peas.
8.  Add the chicken and nuts back to the pan and cook until hot through.
9.  Serve with boiled rice.

Tasty!

My Geeky Side

Today's post is about something potentially geeky. The person that I most aspire to be in the whole world, other than my Dad and my Granpda, has just been voted Fortune's CEO of the decade. His name Steve Jobs.

His work is something I know quite a lot about, and although i don't know masses about the other competitors I think that he is a worthy winner. He has done a lot for the technological world over the last decade, in music, computing, film and phones and, outside of the company he now runs, he has made himself a billionare (see the attraction?). This was my smile for the day.

Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used to an environment where excellence is expected.
Steve Jobs.

Mountain Biking

I have been to Delamere forest to do some mountain biking with a friend.  We've had a really good day (except for the front axle of one of the bikes breaking as we put the wheel on when we got out of the car) and I smiled a lot.  Below is a photo of me (Sorry for the blur - too fast for the sports mode!) and a friend in a video we made I was on camera duty!  Looking forward to going again!

Unfortunate

Today has been a little bit slow but I seem have got some things done though not everything I had planned.

Today's smile is about a picture that I have been sent by my Dad and it's pretty self explanatory!

For all I know it's been photoshopped but it did make me smile so it qualifies for a post!

P.s.  I finished my Lego!  I am now going to have to put up a shelf in order to have somewhere to put it!

My First Smile

So having set up my blog today I have my first smile to post! Good news!

For my birthday my housemates bought me Lego, yes those colourful plastic bricks that can make infinite designs and creations of all shapes and sizes.  They bought me the Lego Indiana Jones Fight on the Flying Wing.  So far I have only had time to build the fuel truck but the plane will be made ASAP! Thanks guys and gals!

My First Post!

Ok.  Where to begin....  I've never really done anything like this before, I haven't even had a diary, so I'm not 100% on where I should start!

At the beginning I guess....

I turned 21 yesterday and had a fantastic time with lots of my family and my amazing girlfriend coming up to see me at Uni for the weekend.  When I put my girlfriend back on the train on this morning for her to go home she told me she wanted to hear something that had made me smile everyday.

So here it goes....
