QR Codes

This week we worked with QR codes in class.  This was my code:








This code links to the website of the event coordinator that I am currently working for. I chose to do a flyer for her because I thought it would be good practice.

I think that QR codes are extremely interesting and a very good idea. Something that you can just scan and have all the information come up instantly without having to search or go through a lot of different information. After finding out the the Twitter app has a QR code scanner built in, I have been scanning any QR code that I come across.

Our professor set up an assignment in class that was a QR code treasure hunt. She taped up QR codes, each of which came up with a different link. Some were videos and some were photos. It was fun because something so simple, a black and white code, held secrets that we were excited to find out about. I think that is one of the nice things about these codes, keeps people excited, interested, and wanting to find out more.

BBC says farewell to Great British Bake Off in a dramatic move to channel 4

The Great British Bake Off has left BBC and joined Channel 4. With millions of loyal viewers, many people seem to have concerns about the switch. For anyone who has never watched Great British Bake off, let's give you the rundown. Great British Bake Off, or GBBO as it is fondly known to many, is a British baking competition which brings in amateur bakers and selects the best one through a process of elimination. If you have watched a show such as MasterChef it is the same basic premise. GBBO, moved from BBC to Channel 4 for selective reasons. While these reasons are being guarded, it has been rumored that money was one of the leading reasons for the switch. While BBC offered a good amount of money, it simply was not enough and Channel 4 swooped in and purchased GBBO for 75 million.   When GBBO was on BBC there were no commercials. While many people are used to sitting through commercials while watching TV, faithful BBC viewers pay extra to not watch com...

Practice makes perfect!

So my sons 4th birthday is coming up. We're throwing him a party at Chuck E Cheese.  Oh Boy. I love to see my son happy, as does every mother, but Chuck E Cheese still makes me cringe a bit. Ok, a lot. But I am going to make him his cake of choice. He has a very hard time making decisions, something he gets from me. (Sorry Kiddo!) But, he has finally chosen. A blue and orange cake (like the Broncos!) with candy on the top. Lots of candy, and lollipops, not small ones big ones. Kids are very particular. I found this cake video on Facebook and it had a method that I wanted to try, so I made a cake last night. No direction and no thought behind it besides-practice. I came out with a watermelon cake 😂 The method was to put different colors of cake batter into piping bags and pipe alternating dots around the pan. I thought it turned out pretty well and will use the method for his cake. And the watermelon frosting, well, that just kind of happened 😂
