Spring is here

I was thinking today it is definitely spring - it's warming up and I can see my jandals are coming out soon. All around our suburb are loads of frieshas -all sorts of colours and they grow up in random batchs. I'm a bit grumpy and mow ours down - I don't want bunches of them in the middle of the lawn! But they smell good - and it reminded me this morning as I walked to the train - hello spring.

I have been knitting loads of baby jumpers for the newborns around. My sister had her second and a friend had twins (they are a bit small and I think the jumpers I knitted are waay too big), and another friend is due this week.

Work has continued to be busy but I have found time to make my own muesli for the last couple of weeks (almost weekly at the rate CH scoffs it!). This weeks mix is particularly coconut & apricot with lots of honey!

A couple of fav websites this week that I can actually access at work:

Design Sponge - the DIY section is so cool, Laura look out your chairs may all get recovered!

Apartment Therapy - talk about driving my house renovation monster mad - I really like the american interior designs and the greenies corner is great.

WOW - check out the second photo called 'Second Skin' - my cousin and her friend are finalists this year! Yah go Fi!

And by the way that is not the colour of my house - that is in fact an old old lady who lives down the street - bless her - I wonder if she actually knew she was getting peppermint shake when she bought the paint!
