The calm before...

One more day until everyone is on school holidays!

Pepper and I made cup cakes to celebrate.

Indi has ridden her bike to Lola's house and I am enjoying a few last moments of calm.

I'm sewing a dress from an old skirt of Emily's.

I always loved that skirt and wished it were mine.

From Emily it went to Meg's and then finally came to me.

But when it did I decided I couldn't wear elasticised waisted skirts anymore, so it sat in a pile for a while. And then this morning I cut it up.

Much better.

I am knitting something that is waaaaaaaaaaay too complicated for me.

I'm only up to about row 10 and already I've had to learn how to do short rows, wrap and turns and I'm about to do something called deep waffle stitch. help!

I am gazing lovingly at this gorgeous rainbow yarn that arrived in the mail this morning.

I am reading, or rather admiring, a picture of our boys.

Farmer Bren and Bingo the maremma are Misters October in The Weekly Times doggy calendar. How cute!!

And we are finally eating fresh, green garlic.

YUM!

We started harvesting yesterday and my goodness it is wonderful to have great garlic to cook with again.

So what's going on with you?

What are you cooking? Growing? Knitting? Sewing?

Have fun.

See ya!
