Digging Around
We started off with a boring courtyard of grass, pavers and an awful clothesline. There were no plants in the ground at all. We have spent the last few weeks digging grass out to make new garden beds and putting in a few specimen plants and trees – grevilleas, a bottlebrush tree and a banksia tree. All of which are native Australian plants which will grow quickly to frame the courtyard and most importantly, screen off neighbours. Richard also installed a compost bin which is quickly filling up. There is still more work to be done and I just can’t wait! I’m looking forward to seeing the garden come alive over the next few years.
Tiny Family
These are the cutest things I’ve knitted so far – a family of finger puppets! They crack me up just looking at them! I made them for Teresa’s daughter, Georgia who just turned 3. I have a feeling she will really like them!
Dinner Anyone?
Nothing beats a homecooked meal, especially when it’s made with your loved one.
Colourful Knitted Bag
I’ve finally finished knitting this cute, crazy bag. The motivation for knitting this is to learn all kinds of different techniques to make each unique square. I didn’t think it would turn out as good as it did and I’m glad I kept at it. I’m going to use it to hold my next knitting project. Still deciding on what that might be… Hmmm…
I’m 29 today!
I was missing Singapore food so as a present to myself, I cooked Ayam Masak Kicap (Chicken in Soy Sauce), Fried Tempeh and Sambal Belacan. Richard cooked Mixed Vegetables Stirfry and made me a cheesecake! It was a very nice way to celebrate my birthday and break fast.
I would also like to thank my mum and mother-in-law for their gifts. Hehe. I still love presents at my age!
