Quiet weekend

Wednesday I had an RDO and went with the ladies to Dendy at Newtown and saw 2 movies. They were good movies but depressing and will not recomend either. Saturday, Margaret came over and we had a lesson on how to solve the suduko puzzle. I really enjoy doing these. Today I made a huge batch of pumpkin soup and have frozen in individual containers to take for lunch. I added coconut milk for a change but will not do that again as its a very strong flavour in itself. Unfortunately, Hawthorn lost again, so thats twice in a row and even Rodney's team, the Swans, lost.

Flowers and fudge

This is the cardigan I have just finished and posting tomorrow. Hope it fits.

Mothers Day 2007 I received a gift voucher through Red Balloon and have only used it now. Here is the box as received and then, with all the delicious fudges out on display. Yes, I have tried one small square and it was wonderful. It will take a long time to eat it that way but I do have another volunteer to taste test it.

These are the lovely flowers I received on Saturday. Thank you both.

Melbourne

During the week I spent two days and one night in town for the annual conference.

John went down to Melbourne to see a football match, and as Hawthorn won, it made the day all worthwhile. Meanwhile, I spent the day in town and saw the movie - Happy Go Lucky, then had lunch, after walking through the Rocks markets and a few of the old laneways. Didnt buy anything. The second movie was Australian - Unfinished Sky - that was excellent.

Lunch

This is taken just before John went to lunch with Rodney to Martins. Meanwhile I spent the afternoon in the winter sunshine down the back with the latest Jeffrey Deaver book - scary.
