A Dinner Time Craving

When I am craving something flavourful and yummy for dinner, but really don't feel like cooking I pop out my rice cooker, my frying pan and make some stir fry! Here is my yummy and simple recipe!

Ingredients:
Garlic
Soy Sauce
Ginger
Baby corn
Zucchini
Onions
Green beans
Chicken
Shrimp
Scallops

Directions:
Cut chicken in small pieces and fry until cooked. Add onions, garlic, soy sauce and ginger then add the rest of the veggies. Fry them until they are almost entirely cooked and then add shrimp, scallops or both.

Put it on top of some rice and now you are ready to eat!

Cup Cake Contest

My mom's work decided to have a cup cake contest. Here are all of the entries.
This is the root beer flavoured cup cakes... yes there is a pickle on top! Not sure why.
These cup cakes won the contest because one of them is a portrait of the judges dog. (suck up!)
This is our lovely entry! The circuit board cup cakes. We got second prize! My mom works at a computer soft ware company so we thought the theme would be suitable.
