That bed is just right

I splurged at Kmart and bought this little houseguest a doggie bed for $6. She is a trifle confused and has decided to flake out on my people bed.

She may think she's settled in for the night but she's in for a big surprise.

Anh Do - Artist

I didn't realise that the multi-talented Australian comedian and writer Anh Do could also paint.
Here is the portrait of his father he submitted for The Archibald Prize.

Aussie entertainment

 So proud of our grandson shining in his school play this evening. It was worth the trip up from Sydney to see him.

A Love Letter

Yesterday when I attended Grandparents' Day at some grandchildren's school I came across this piece of writing that one of them had written. As he had obviously written it in a hurry I will add a transcription of its contents below the image.


I love my grandparents because almost every sleepover they let me go to my favourite restaurant and have my favourite drink.

They let me go down into the library (shed) to get new books.

They entertain me and keep me safe.

We have breakfast in bed.


Isn't that beautiful.

Chicken Dinner

Table centrepiece for dinner tonight. Are my visitors going to be polite or will they realise it's a folly?


I purchased this item from a street vendor in Mindelo, Cape Verde, who was sitting on the footpath making crocheted items for sale.

Game on

Blokus time at our house today. 

We are lucky that we have a "toy room" with plenty of goodies to amuse the kids.
