amusing and colourful


What a colourful
array in the grocery store.
I couldn't resist taking this photograph.
Such an abundance of prepared salads.
Salads all Ready for busy people

to whisk them off to have after a busy
or during their work day.

And of course there is a
cornucopia of wine on offer.

You wouldn't want to be caught thirsty with all that
fruity salad.

thank you




"You gain strength, courage and
confidence by every experience

in which you really stop to look fear in the face.
You are able to say to yourself,
'I have lived through this horror.
I can take the next thing
that comes along.'

You must do the thing
you think you cannot do.
"

Eleanor Roosevelt


ooh, have a look
at this new book by Sandra Boynton.
Happy Hippo, Angry Duck.

Really, who wouldn't want to read this? !

art house




I invite you
to have a look at the
Art House Co-op Website.

They've done an
enormous amount
of work to make
the website
easier to
use and a lot of fun.

You can find out
who is taking part in which
projects,
look them up
and see some of their work.

This site keeps improving.



Have you found any of my projects ?

Relax a bit while you read this . . .




"The great world
spins forever
down the ringing grooves of change."

(Alfred, Lord Tennyson)






In knitting news,
i've started a new project.
a small curtain for my kitchen window.
it's a lovely shade of blue ...
and i made a terrific and large swatch
with the yarn, measured many many
times before i cast on
for the actual Curtain.

So far, the curtain seems to be larger
in width than what i'd bargained for.
Not sure how this will play out.
it's a lacey design.
i am hoping for inspiration tomorrow.
