What have you been doing today?

[JulieO]

Yes, my dtr is over 6' too and has the same trouble.  Would love to give her some links to have a look at. 

[Nikkit]

Bedlam and JulieO I shop at http://www.sheplers.com/
They have loads of clothes and jean lengths to suit many. Have a gander in there. I keep an eye out for when they have $35 postage to Aus.
The jeans I buy I have seen here for over $150/pair, I can get them posted for about $50/pair. (just bought 3 pairs the other day)

But if your daughters have any problems give me a call and I'll help out where I can 

[JulieO]

Thanks Nikkit, I will send on that link to my dtr.  If there are any questions, I'll be sure to ask

waiting for my new leather lounge to be delivered and have ended up vacuuming, mopping and washing all the walls in the lounge/living areas, and it's rather hot here today but once I get started I find it hard to stop )

We went out to Adriano Zumbo's place today. OMG.  We didnt get a zonut as the first ray came out about 10.30 and disappeared within minutes. They don't take orders. We had two lovely looking goodies and shared. We also bought some macarons to try and take home.
I have just had half the meat pie and sauce one. I don't think I like it much as having a macaron taste like a meat pie and sauce with lots of pepper was hard to take.  
We also visited the Prahan Markets. What lovely food. Especially the fruit.
DD bought a few Leona Edmonston dresses and we had lovely rides on the trams and saw lots.

I know that I have not been around forever, but find myself with loads of time at the moment, as the result of an op on achilles tendon a couple of weeks back so no weight bearing for another 4 weeks - yuk. Apologies to all for the important life's celebrations that I have missed xx  No cooking in this section of the world - thought that I would begin Christmas prep by making these cutlery keepers (DH gave them to me last Xmas and I have purchased a further 6) -

[judydawn]

They're cute Robyn.  Time to put your feet up and join us now that you have the opportunity and the time to do so.  I hope the op was a success and that you do the right thing by yourself and follow doctor's orders until the healing process is over.

They are lovely Robyn. Hope the foot/ankle heals quickly.

[gertbysea]

Really cute Robyn. You stay off that foot.

I didn't realise you were in Melbourne Cookie, sounds like you & DD are having a ball.
I'm pooped after attending a 2 day seminar for work - all that networking gets pretty tiring! Nice surroundings though - the seminar was held at the grand old Windsor Hotel, with breakfast, lunch, morning & afternoon tea laid on. Then we had dinner at Grossi Florentino last night which was very nice - amazing service, although staff kept calling me signorina which was a hoot! Early night tonight, busy weekend coming up.... and I've realised I've got another breakfast to attend on Monday morning. It's all work, work, work here!
