Birthdays!

Posted on March 7, 2012 by ghotiindustries

Birthdays are so much fun! Especially when Grandma pulls out all the stops and bakes you a “fantasy castle”!

Himself bravely ventured a piece of a step, and I just valiantly cheered him on from the sidelines. The kids made great in-roads though!

The weather which had been amazing turned to this on the drive home …

You can see how 75% of NSW was underwater. The equivalent of the size of France!

Arriving home to my new yarn did me no end of good though!

I feel like I have been waiting forever for this to come to a local shop near me! I guess it’s only been a few years though … I can’t wait to play!!! Now, which socks shall I make with them?

The Quiet Weekend

Posted on January 30, 2012January 29, 2012 by ghotiindustries

I’m sorry I skipped last week my faithful readers. There just hasn’t been much noteworthy going on to report.

This past weekend was a quiet one. There was some cleaning up done around the house, and I finally catalogued most of my yarn stash on Ravelry.

We had some friends turn up to help us move some furniture which doesn’t really make for interesting blogging or photography.

We did go down to one of our local cafes for breakfast on Sunday though. In our little corner of little Italy, it’s a French café. Who’d have thought?
