Hey my page NAHM is going to be published in For Keeps #44

At about 3pm was your world shattered by a blood-curdling squeal? Sorry...



I found the following on Wendy Smedleys blog


Why I Blog, part one

Why I Blog

I have been reading a book called, Who Let The Blogs Out?, by Biz Stone.
He discusses the reasons people blog— some of his most compelling reasons are…
“Peer-to-peer publishing
-Future of our connected lives (Lib loves this one)
-Flexible way for people to communicate that
which they care about with networks of friends
-Democratic self-expression
-Promote a group or culture”
So I have yet another blog ‘goal’ I want to write a mission statement for my blog.
I will leave this as a permanent link so people can understand why I choose to blog-
Plus it will remind me if I forget- More coming…

Now I challenge you to a statement-off.. no prizes just do it ok!


Did I happen to casually mention my page is being published? Not sure... couldnt remember... silly old me lol

Now the ladies and my good self, pottered up to Club MacQuarie Argenton to see the ladies.. Miss Ange and the gorgeous Grace were arriving as we did and it was great to see everyone... Kelley gave me this cute, amazingly decorated bin (there is so much work in decorating it) thanks Kelley! xxx) ...sorry about the dodgy pics




















and the fabulous Mrs Hall gave me her swap page of Chuck....






Chucks loves it... Im going to find a frame and hang it over her cot... Mrs Hall is an amazing woman with an amazing studio.. and I know you all go there anyway but incase there is one of you in the dark click here to visit her blog.... thanks Mrs Hall I am truely indebted to you for the swap page. Lucky me also was given this

Regina has all these great random shots of 'art' around the home.. I think its a brilliant idea.. so do it... and Regina I dont know what to say other than 'crap poo shit bum bugger bitch bastard' ... repeat the aforementioned until you feel better... I hope it's soon (turn that frown upside down, put on a hap hap happy face, and whistle a happy tune) when youre thru with that you'll forget what it was that was getting you downI call this one "Magpie poo atop driveway cement with leaf" tee hee one more..this one is "tubby shrubby" as my sphagnum moss planter has 'grown comfortable' with its surrounding metal ... ah ya gotta love a bit of give

may I leave you with this?....

They sicken of the calm, who knew the storm. - Dorothy Parker

& perhaps this also...

There is no excellent beauty that
hath not some strangeness in the proportion -Sir Francis Bacon (1561 – 1626)

which leads beautifully on to a wise woman...

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder
And it may be necessary
From time to time to give a stupid
Or misinformed beholder a black eye -Miss Piggy

couldnt have said it better myself..

Thanks for joining me here ladies.. my old blog is here

Miss Kelley directed me to this place (thanks Kelley) I wanted to upload heaps of pics and the other blog wanted a photo host ... very very disturbing.. well I found it disturbing.. so Im here now and so far Im loving it.. many more posts too cos Im on a roll with blogging...(Kelley keep an eye out for Pablo matey.. cant thank you enough)

So I havnt updated since the markets so I thought I should start with that. So






It took a fair bit of convincing that dragonfruit existed.. it looked like rhubarb/kiwi fruit to me. Apparently dragonfruit is a cactus, bit like prickly pear and anyway should have bought some of the relish just to say I had tried it... I didnt mybe next month.. Did you know dragonfruit is $30/kilo those dragons must be raking it in!

anyway next post soon.. off to finish the pasta bake for the ladies
