Door 3: Melbourne Cup Day
Task 1: Pick your ponies.*
[Did not participate]
Task 2: Roses are the official flower of Flemington Race Track; write your own “Roses are Red, Violets are Blue” poem for one of your favorite or most hated books of all time.
Roses are red,
Violets are blue
Reading this book,
Made me want to sue
Task 3: Aussies shorten everything, so Melbourne Cup Day is just called “Cup Day” – post a picture of your favorite cup or mug for your daily fix of coffee, tea or chocolate.
This is my favorite mug that I have and use daily (as you can tell by the stains). I got this from Moonlight Reader a few years back and my coworkers enjoy the "insults" Shakespeare has. Right now my desk is looking a bit bare, but that's because I am in the middle of packing due to the office renovation that is going on right now. New paint, carpet for our whole agency.
Task 4: Prepare your favorite dessert – in a cup! Post a photo of it for us to enjoy vicariously.
