just some little things keeping me smiling this week...

~ sampling our first ever freshly picked apples

 ~ a hot tip received last week

led us to a clump of plum trees, all ripe and ready for a picking 

tucked away

 in a quiet lane on the outskirts of town.

We may just happen to be passing by this particular spot this time again next year...

~ more fresh local produce, walnuts and homemade carrot cake

 ~ crochet covering rocks (pattern here)

~ some crafting ready to go, just awaiting a quiet moment to get stuck into it.

~ peaceful sleeps in new vintage floral

A field of Gooseberries

Blackberries

and Blueberries

 

 I finally met a real Gooseberry on a very berry enjoyable day trip to a local Berry Farm the day before we headed off for a busy two week family holiday throughout Qld and NSW. My reason why I've been away from this space for a while.
A belated Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to all

Another busy year ahead for us, how about you?

Hung...

 

Made from a bit of this and a bit of that...
and pieces received in last years Bunting swap
Just because I love Bunting...

Tangled

Finding a little time to crochet these days is quite rare so when Laura got hold of my wool I let her enjoy her time just as much as I enjoyed mine. Hopefully we'll have a new little crochet hat soon.

Blossoms

 

Pink & Pretty

Something new to me in this wonderful new town and climate is Blossoms!  I adore them.  Spring is still very much in the air down here, I have to say, I am not missing that Queensland weather! 

If you followed the links in my last post you would have seen many of the gorgeous flowers around town that have been capturing my attention lately.  These pretty pink ones adorn my front yard, and I have roses that are heavy in bud I hope to share with you in the next couple of weeks.

I'm very home sick at the moment but Pretties like this still seem to make me smile everyday  :)

Rainbow toes

I can give you 6 good reasons why this household is painting their toes (well 12 actually)  

(.) (.)  

Join us, fill your world with rainbows in support of Annie, a much admired fellow Blogger, a beautiful, creative and talented mother of 5 on her journey to recovery after having her left breast removed last week.

We're painting our toes to help support Annie and women all over the world fighting against Breast Cancer.  

You can read more about Annie's journey here and here and check out some other cool Rainbow Toes offering their love and support for this Amazing and Inspirational Woman.

Love and Best wishes to you ANNIE  

and GET WELL SOON
