Nothing quite beats the taste of a bacon, sausage and egg bap from the Sandwich Box (brown sauce please). It is the breakfast of champions, or at least art students. It is also a return to challenges. Challenge number 11 is “Eat Breakfast Daily” and was set for me by Tom and John, they’ll be pleased to know that today I kept to it.
Since I blogged about site developments two weeks ago I’ve developed the site even further. One of the changes is the resurrection of the challenges page, so if you’ve forgotten the challenges or want to suggest one of your own head over there.

Tastes even more delicious than it looks.
You’ll also notice that I have revamped the sidebar, updated the links page, played around with the drop caps and doodled a new header. the Google Ads aren’t doing badly for themselves either, having pulled in $3.44 (only another $96.56 to go before Google mail the cheque).
Toying with my site and eating greasy sandwiches haven’t been my only escapades though, I’ve also been nosing around other people’s blogs too. Another batch of students are being forced through the online projects/ web journalism unit and so another batch of blogs have popped up.
Out of the handful I’ve seen so far here are my favourites.
Fashion Police – If anyone ever wrote a profile of me I’m sure “bitchy comments” would be listed as one of my main interests. It is for this reason that I cannot help but love a blog that critiques celebrity styling. Was hoping for some coverage of outfits gracing the red carpets at the Oscars but made do with Vanity Fair’s tweets.
Evolution of Man – The (Un)Manly Blog – Help make metrosexuality socially acceptable. Hoping he will blog about Sex and the City, musicals and clothes shopping.
My other favourite is one I blogged about last week, Life Through God’s Sunglasses. It’s written by my housemate Claire Baines. Baines is giving up Facebook for Lent so will no longer be able to promote new posts via her status. Visit the Got a Question page and ask her anything you’ve ever wondered about Christianity.
In further house news, my other housemate (housie? homie?) Sarah Gingell has also got herself a blog, Running from Zombies. She is running 10km to raise money for Lupus UK and will be blogging about her training. Gingell aims to post every Monday, Wednesday and Friday (think of it as Blue Peter but with less drug abuse).
I can see long nights in the house spent comparing blog stats and WordPress themes.
If this was a novel I would have introduced Gingell and Baines earlier and by now you’d have a good idea of their appearances, interests and philosophies. Unfortunately, this is not a novel and you have no idea who these characters are. Expect a blog entry introducing them properly at some stage (will need to get photos and text approved on pain of death).
A good way to keep up to date with these blog entries is to subscribe to the RSS Feed but from today you can also be alerted to new posts by following the Twitter hash code #scribblog (Frosty this is for you and yay for advanced tweeting).
