Does anyone get Served anymore?
this is my list of "lets ignore a customer" shops of today
1. Muffin Break - 6 staff, 1 other customer, totally ignored by all staff as they huddled round the ovens
2. Jesters - 3 staff, no other customers, staff were having a chat behind the counter totally ignored once again
3. Deli Section Woolworths - 4 staff, no other customers, took my number and waited, totally ignored yet again but all the meat is now very prettily laid out, obviously not for sale though.
The end result I left all stores with no purchases, morning tea was not bought, a treat for the boys was not purchased and my husband has to have tinned tuna on his sandwiches yet again.

Calamity Bolt - Gorgeous Handmade
Last week I had my very first facebook sale and to my delight some of my customers were fantastic creative people themselves, one such person is Elke who has a made it store Calamity Bolt where she sells the most amazing Hobby Horses like the one pictured above.
Elke also makes hair accessories, clips and bands and her very cute logo was drawn by her daughter when she was 4.
Nice to meet you Elke!!

How to Scare the Crap out of Me
Step 2. Your husband calls to say he nearly ran the fully loaded 170ton truck he is driving off the road
Step 3. Pick up your children from daycare and be told one had escaped during the day
Step 4. Call your mother to have a good cry and be told your father is having a minor heart attack
What a Day!

Trust me Darling It will taste Great...
I hate cooking with a passion, I have been told I am a good cook but I get no enjoyment from it, it is a chore that I despise. I think its not the cooking so much but the what to cook. I stand in front of the pantry for so long trying to think of new and wonderful things to make and in the end I cook the same thing as I did last week. Knowing this when I do the shopping I end up buying the same ingredients over and over and the pantry fills with tins of tomatoes and jars of spaghetti sauce. Then there are the really obscure items that I buy when I am pretending that I will cook something different but dont and then those start to double up.
So for the past two weeks I have been cooking what is in the pantry and not buying groceries. It amazes me that all that food was sitting there just wasting away. However in my determination to empty the pantry we are getting down to a few strange combinations, a mixing of continents and condiments not likely to be seen on the next Master Chef (oh and I hate those cooking shows too).
Now I must be off there is a pan of turkey sausages with dukkah seasoning, tinned tomatoes and water chestnuts waiting to be served.

An Innate Fear
I am terrified of heights, I cant even make it to the top of the ladder. Its ridiculous, all my logic tells me that I wont fall but I still start to sweat and my knees wobble. This photo always makes me feel ill, just looking at it now I am having a minor panic attack and I'm sitting in a chair on the ground not 69 stories up in the air. I have to go now I am seriously having chest pains.............

We have a new stockist Hip Babes. Hip Babes is a great website for parents of children with Hip Dysplasia, my niece had this condition and was in a brace for 12 months. They are now stocking our cowgirl skirts which are perfect for fitting over a brace!

Well it is a person or persons who is covering trees, posts, stop signs and the like under the cover of darkness with knitted jumpers, cozies etc.
I love this person/persons, what dedication!! I would be lucky to finish a twig sized garment.
Where do they find the time to knit........
