It's time .. Ready, Set, Gather your recipes

Ultimate Blog Party 2008 Yesterday, I told you about the great blog party going on all week long starting today 12.01am Eastern time USA?

I have been seeing it around for the past two weeks. Today, I just had enough time to wash my hair and to put on my sweat pants fancy dress before one of the little monsters woke up and head on over at the last minute.

Janice and Susan of 5 Minutes for Mom are the hosts The idea is to get out meet new bloggers and have some traffic fun!

In my haste I did forget to mention that there are prizes to be given out to everyone that participates and that almost 1000 women joined in last year ?

Well, where are my manners? My name is Trish (Babyamore - cause I know so many Trish bloggers) . Welcome to my humble blog, I’m delighted that you are here.

I live in the Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. I am married to Mr Right, we have three boys - a teenager and twin 20 month olds ( how can that be, they were just babies last week and in the blink of an eye they chat back and can run faster than me). I also have an Angel daughter in heaven.

If you browse around, you’ll most likely find a whole lot of fun stuff and loads of pictures of the dynamic duo, 'twister' twins and the resulting chaos.

If you can ignore the extra vowels , my awful grammar (I can't say poor grammar - because it will only confuse you - as it did my Chinese friend once - hasn't your grandma any money honey) and punctuation... I forget to take a breath and where to insert commas. (I tend to overdose on .... sometimes!!!! )

My belief is that the best bits of life are in celebrating the little things (my cheeky twins), impromptu captured moments, or the slices in the days (send some slice recipes -if you will…) and I do my best to blog them. I don't get too deep and meaningful and I enjoy it.

Whilst, I write for myself (Tiff, Melbo and my stalkers) it’s been an added joy to have met so many other wonderful bloggers. I ♥ you.

So this is my party post and I want to hear from you ... I love Cocktail parties ...so tell me your favourite drink (sans alcohol or not) and share with me your favourite recipe (any food, beverage, dessert -OH yes !) ... I will put them on my other blog too- cause I need some new ideas for my menu planning.

If not ... please comment anyway and let me know something about you.

I especially want to challenge all the Trish's or Patricia's , Pat's or Patti's out there to come and say hi.

I also have some great joke quotes to share this week (I can't tell you where I ripped them from ...).

Let the party begin ...who is bringing the music ?

I love knowing your real name. My best friend growing up - her name was Trish! I'm going to go over and check out this party - I've been hearing so much about it!

Thanks for coming by and thanks for your prayers for our sweet baby. Take care and I'll see you soon. Kellan

Would love to join in on the party, have a cold though, perhaps I will come and wear a mask to protect other from cathing my `virus`! I do have a fab dress I wanted to try out!

Tried to get onto the site though but it is down, I suspect they are receiving a lot of traffic!

Look forward to your other posts for the party!

Did someone say dessert? Anything chocolate would do just fine! Thank you for being such a great hostess!

Party on TRISH. I love knowing your name too. My favorite coctail is Captain Morgan spiced rum and juice (pineapple and orange mixed). Sometimes known as a Bahama Mama. Oh thats me! Know lets DANCE.

Not a Trish, but my Mom is both a Trish and a Patti. I'll send her over.

Also couldn't tell you a single recipe other than this: bowl. cereal. milk. :)

The party sounds intriguing.

What a delight your blog has been! I find myself to be a bit grammatically challenged (but I make up great words on impulse). I am party ready, but for now I'll have to stick to coffee. :)

Don't feel much like partying, but man... I just had to comment.

My grandmothers name was Patricia. Pat for short. Never entered my mind that Trish was short for Patricia and then today, of all days, it hits me.

Sorry to be a downer :(
