home again, home again, jiggety jig

well, what a fabulous week up at Karapiro both for New Zealand, NZ rowers and a great holiday to boot!



But... we caught the big silver bird yesterday, and  after the long drive home, here we are, back in paradise, ready to get right into the long list of jobs and things-to-do... never ending huh.

The builders and electrician and plumber were here while we were away putting in our new kitchen,  still quite a  bit of work to do, and the electrician needs to come back and do a bit of work, but the cabinetry is in, and the flooring is down, and the plumbing works, no stove tho' so no cooking in this house for a bit!!!!  Hopefully the electrician will be here today, tomorrow.... before the weekend???

lots of parcels have arrived while we have been away, so quite a bit of unpacking, and sorting and folding will happen in the shop today, watch here and here for further details and pikkies of the goodies

and Leanne Beasley's new magazine "Vignette" has also arrived and I will post this out to all the pre-orders. I am sure you will all have fun with this new delightful magazine, it has a really scrummy BOM that Leanne has included to wet your whistle, and get your stitching mojo going ...

so up and at 'em. Talk to you again later today when I have unpacked and sorted the goodies...

Welcome home DMS. A new kitchen, how fabulous and well timed being away whilst it was being put in.
Looking forward to seeing pics of all of your lovely new stock and very excited to know that my mail man will be bringing wonderful goodness soon.
