Bits 'n' bobs

these pretties are from my Mum's garden,

she had them on her kitchen bench when we visited yesterday while in Dunedin

Back home again 'tho and Rowing man is in construction mode again, but at least he is reading AND following the manual..... and I have been looking through this catalogue, in between offering instructions... (yeh right!)


these are most delicious!!

so so yummmy...

I am in total heaven looking at these...


however, in between my jam making (yep using up all those plums before I start on the apples)
I am off to sort out this room (below), as it has become a bit of a dumping ground over the last week, and Rowing Boy and French Chic are coming up for the weekend. The other room is currently being used by a 5th year medical student who is attached to Rowing Man for the next 3 weeks.

hmmm, off I go..... anybody want to do it for me??



p.s. off to Christchurch on Friday for the day, catch up with Miss D... now that WILL be fun

Those little flowers are so pretty, love the colour. The catalogue looks interesting and glad to see hubby is using the instructions. Good luck with the room tidying!!!!

Why is it that someone elses chore seems like interesting and fun but if that was my room I would be calling it boring and work.

Oh no, it takes me weeks to get Miss D back to normal after you have visited. She becomes all excited about stitching and quilting and dining and wine-ing. Well there goes next month LOL. Have a fun day both of you and think of me working hard down the road

Lovely flowers. Yes totally understand the Kaffe thing. :-)

No offers of help tidying here but if you're in the mood my craft room could do with a proper bottoming out.

When you find that person that cleans up that sewing room please send them my way. :-)
I am a real fan of Tina Givens fabric, how nice to lose yourself for a short while in that catalogue.
Enjoy Chch, we have just spent a week back home and now I am so homesick.
