  • Tree #3

    Tree #3
    I came around the corner tonight and stopped dead in my tracks. Remember the second tree, the one I planted after the first one was stolen? The one with the passionfruit vine and the grass planted with it? GONE. This time the culprit appears to have been the Council, who replaced it with an admittedly nice six-foot-high tree held up with sturdy stakes. I like Tree #3, but why couldn’t they have done that nine months ago and saved me two trees and many hours of wasted effort?

  • Needle Felted WoW

    Needle felting meets World of Warcraft. Prediction: Tia will be all over this.

  • Barack Obama, Jedi Knight

    Barack Obama, Jedi Knight. Sweeeeeet.

    The cookies appear to have been much appreciated. My good deed is done for the day.

    @Bex_the_Femme Ever used Goldwell Soft Colour Foam? http://bit.ly/183vx1 I found a couple good reviews of it…

    Just completed a 4.04 km run with @runkeeper, check it out http://bit.ly/Sjeix #RunKeeper

    It’s the kind of day where you can just see the next five glorious months of spring/summer unfurling ahead of you. It’s gonna be good. #fb

    @kms12 No? You’re anti-warm weather? But… pretty blue sky! Barbecues! Sunshine! Daylight Savings! My favorite part of the year by far.

    @kms12 True. My focus has turned to gardening as my knitting mojo has waned with the lengthening days…

    Sigh. @seanchadwick designed an awesome Kanye-inspired Halloween invite for us, but I fear the meme will be played out, oh, about NOW. 🙁

    @redambition As the Queen of Comfortable Shoes, I command you to leave the heels at home. 🙂

    My funky red hair allows me to feel confident in spite of tanned 20somethings on the bus WEARING NO PANTS.

    Lots more baby rocket seedlings coming up this morning! Also saw some slug trails, so I put down Blitzem pellets.

  • Martha’s Garden

    A Tour of Martha Stewart’s Garden. Wow. I wonder if edamame would grow in our garden.

  • A cupcake or two

    My friend Anthony pointed me towards A Cupcake or Two, a newish Sydney food blog. It was done by his friend Katherine. Great design and photography…

    Dear Kyle Sandilands,

    This is not the account of someone going to a weight-loss camp. I hope you read it; I hope you feel bad; and I hope you get fired.

    Regards,

    For those who don’t get the reference…

    @randomknits The wind is my fault. I’ve used the GHD twice this week, which makes blustery-ness inevitable.

    Awww, yeah. Peanut. Butter. Cookies. (Better have a light breakfast tomorrow, @venks79 @Opheli8 @chrisgander @VenessaHunt @movietrailerfan!)

    And you know they’re gonna be good, because I’m wearing my uber-housewife pinny: https://web-goddess.org/img/deskcam.jpg

    @twelveeyes BTW – the one I wore today was the Threadless brand tee, and it was SMALLER! Much more form fitting than the AA ones.

    @twelveeyes Yeah. The Threadless isn’t, like, obscene or anything, but it’s definitely more fitted than the AA version.

    Today’s garden update: there are very, very tiny rocket seedlings starting to poke up… #fb

    KANNNNNYE! *shaking fists* http://bit.ly/evk7i

    @Bex_the_Femme Think I may need to do fortnightly top-ups of the red. Got a recommendation for a good hair dye for self-application?

    @Bex_the_Femme It’s not a punk primary red. (We didn’t bleach first, so it went over my brown.) So more of a deep maroon.
