I have yet to go to a grand final. Maybe one day. This house is an ABC house. (Anyone but Collingwood) Although I do have a soft spot for Malthouse.

I love reading all about everyone's shopping and was lamenting the fact that I haven't bought anything exciting. DH reminded me about Yoke's new book. Here it is.
May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

Hally did you happen to pick up a 2nd battery for your camera. I now have 2 extra after our last trip OS. Despite having the charger, videos chew into the battery so I found myself in the middle of NY with 2 flat batteries consequently the purchase of no 3 - I know that you will enjoy Hawaii, have a great holiday!!!!  :-*  :-*

Oh you've all confused me.

I have a cat and we love him...but magpies are protected by law.  :-\

Oh stick the law, magpies attach little children and cats are cuddly  ;D ;D ;D


So, Go Cats!

Well......today my 14 year old girl proved to me that we are more alike, than she would like to admit  ;)
Went shopping to pick out a new bed & base for her, only with those intentions in mind.......well......we were happy enough to purchase a large padded headboard we spotted on the net, but when we stumbled upon this fabulous glam gem.....we looked at each other and went......
OH.MY.GOD!......insert *Oooh's & Ahhhs*!

It is padded, and wait for it.......studded with Swarovski Crystals  :o 8) ;D



We ordered it in black, with a Diamond design......will look very ooh-la-la me thinks  :P  when the light shines on it......it just sparkles!
........so much for that budget  :D
.........EAT CAKE!
