Well ... we don't have a market on this weekend (or next), so it will be a nice quiet day.
Stew will do 'his' grocery shop, which means Diet Coke and food for his lunches during the week.
He mentioned us going to Mitre 10 to find mini cucumber plants, as they are really yum. We forgot to get some last weekend.
Hopefully we can find some, they are very popular.
After lunch we plan on visiting Bex and the kids, Stew misses out on seeing them during the week. Steve won't be home as he's enjoying a day playing cards with his mates. Boy time out and all that.
In between all that I will probably do some sewing. Slowly plodding away at all those placemats I have lined up.
ONWARD...
ABOVE: Yaaa, they had those cute little cucumber plants. And 3 for $27, not bad. We had to buy another pot for them, and they will go right where they are now.
In an hour or so we are going to The Lookout for a nice lunch.
I'm in a summery dress today, and ... it's still cold, wet and miserable. But I don't care. Summer IS coming.
And then... I got too cold. So back into long tights and a sweatshirt. Sad. It really is a miserable wet day. I feel sorry for anyone who has a market on today. AND its Voting Day as well, Stew cast his vote at the local school this morning.
Killing time till our lunch arrives now....
5.45 pm. Lunch was OK, but not fabulous. We both chose a burger and well, there was nothing wrong with them, but we both agreed ... the only place that makes fantastic burgers is Burger Fuel.
Once lunch was over we visited the kids for an hour or so. That was nice.
Then home. I decided to have a nap. I lay and listened to jet boats on the river, and masses and masses of thunder and lightening.
It is still thundering right now... it just keeps on going!
ABOVE: I did get some placemats finished. The Farm Tractors are very cute.
I'm going to make myself an Opti Shake Dessert for my 'dinner' now. Stew can throw something in the air fryer for his dinner.
10.41 pm, and it's been a trying evening, one way or another.
We tried watching the election results, but it was just annoying. They were 'calling it' too damn quick, so we turned off the TV.
We will possibly find out tomorrow, or it might drag on for day. MMP sucks, it puts the 'power' into the hands of small idiotic parties.
Does my head in.
Right, time to sign off, catch ya tomorrow.





I hope you and Stew are having a lovely day. Muggy day here in Christchurch but I think we are due for some rain soon which will be lovely for the garden.
