TOWN TODAY

 I'm off to town this morning.

We ordered a new Britto figurine, and it's arrived, so I will pick it up. There's been virtually no new Britto for months and months, so getting a new piece is exciting.

I also want to visit the supermarket and grab a few necessities. 

I've been trying to grow houseplants, with limited success.  I've killed more succulents than I thought possible!

But ONE PLANT is doing really well!!!  

ABOVE:  It's on top of the cupboard in our bathroom.... and doesn't get much direct sunlight.  But it's doing so well!  And it's lovely.  

I recently re-potted my 'String of Hearts' too.  I'm keeping a close eye on it, cos knowing my luck, it's gunna die.

It's so weird really, many years ago I had HEAPS of houseplants and they all did well.  Now?  

Yeah, lost me green thumb somewhere along the way.

I might have to invest in a few more realistic looking fake plants!

OK... that's enough waffling for now.

Catch ya later.

OH and I've decided to go with.... QUILT for my latest project.  I think it would be ruined as a Duvet cover... too much washing and wear.  But it was worth thinking about.  Thanks for your input, it helped.

ABOVE:  I only got one Britto today, instead of the two I had planned on getting.

Ursula the Sea Witch was just far, far too expensive!

The prices have gone up and there is just no way I could justify buying her.  Sad.

But I did get Ariel, even though she was also expensive... but not as bad as Ursula.

After the gift shop, I went to The Chemist Warehouse for some essentials... $120 later!

Eeee gads, nothing is cheap, even in that shop.

Next stop was the supermarket for a couple of things.  That ended up being a trolley full. 😕😖

Money just GOES!

ABOVE:  Home, groceries etc away.  Girls are in the sun.

Lunch time.

Oh and comments?  Is there a glitch on Blogger, or am I just friggin boring you?   

ABOVE:  While not finished yet, this is my favourite butterfly so far!  

Working on block number 7.

Two to go before I can start stitching.

Right, block number 7 is almost done.

Dinner tonight is Lamb and Garlic sausages, Kumera Rissoles, Kumera Poppas, Lettuce salad and hot buns.  Well, that's what Stew is having.  I had mine at lunchtime.

The sausages are super strong flavoured, so I only ate half of one.  

I will show you our new Britto figurine tomorrow.  I waited to open it till Stew got home.

It's gorgeous!

ABOVE:  resident tart.... there's not been many left overs for her lately.  Which means I'm cooking just the right amount for Stew and I now!  It's taken quite a bit of time getting that sorted I can tell you!

Anyway... it's time to wind down for the day.

Catch ya tomorrow.
