I went to Gaganis Bros yesterday. I started with a basket and ended up with a trolley. I went for couverture chocolate and vanilla paste, and ended up with a whole lot more. I've bought fresh yeast, rye flour, kibbled rye, wholemeal spelt flour, plain flour.......I can feel some bread making coming on.

I see pantry moths ES  :D

I bought a couple of things from our craft stalls today. I was permitted to buy a couple of things as I will be busy when everyone is let loose in there tomorrow.
A lap rug in my footy team colours.

One of the many bags made by clever ladies.

A bug made from a spark plug. I think he is so cute. I'm not sure what he is as he only has 4 legs.

Ah, that would be a spark bug cookie, quite common here in Australia  ;)   Nice purchases there, I hope all the clever ladies sell all their stock tomorrow.

I love it Judy. That is what I will call him. I just realised that I didn't clear the bed before taking the photos. Too bad, I don't mind. I love the quilt we have in the van, my Mum won it many years ago and it compliments our van colours beautifully.

Thanks. It is very cosy on freezing nights too. I'm sure she would be thrilled to see that we have put it to good use.  :D
