Happy (prime) birthday to my best friend. I feel very lucky to get to share my life with the cleverest, kindest, handsomest man. ❤️ (And he voted for the white belt, so that’s what I went with!)

Be my stylist. No belt, white belt, or pink belt? (We’re going out for a special occasion.) 👗🤔 @made590 #made590

Our first Weisswurst since leaving Germany. We’re having it for dinner, but I comfort myself that it wasn’t yet noon in Munich. ❤️🥨🍻 Logistics: This required travel to four separate specialty shops, considerably more outlay of funds than in Munich, and the Snook had to make his own süßer Senf (which wasn’t quite right but we’ll get there).

Old and busted, and the new hotness. (The cover on the new one is way prettier, yeah?) Lots of fresh new pages to fill. 🌏😉

She’s leaving on that midnight train to Sydney… 🎶 We caught the very late Brisbane-to-Sydney train in Macksville (our 2nd ever sleeper train) last night. Not my most comfortable sleep ever, but I did fit on the bunk and we woke up to an amazing sunrise. 🌅🛤️

How precious is this?! Little Rodd was such a sweetie. (Still is!) ❤️ #schmoopie

Socks are coming along nicely! This self-striping colourway is “Return of the Bounty Hunter” from @bahyarns. It’ll be a simple 2×2 ribbing with an afterthought heel. #knitting #socks 🧶🧦

The definition of cozy: handsewing a quilt binding in front of a fire while watching Grand Designs on a winter night… 🧵🪡❤️🔥

3 hrs into an 8hr train trip that would take < 5 hrs in Europe. 😭🚊🇦🇺

Mini #sewing project! I realised recently that I really need a needle book to hold my hand sewing needles. Last night I whipped up this little version in < 30 minutes from scraps I had at home. It’s wonky but gets the job done! 🧵🪡🍍
