Bought a bread knife online last  night from the Oz TM website. Looks pretty nifty. I usually cut pretty straight, but hopefully it will help others in the family to follow suit  ;)

May all dairy items in your fridge be of questionable vintage.

I bought a thingy that makes zoodles (noodles from zucchini and other vegetables). $15 from kmart and does the job well (I've seen similar for at least double the price! )

That's nice Obbie, I think that tops the shopping this week.  Is this for yourselves or as an investment?

no, we can't ever move from here.  We are less than 5 minutes from the lake. Our house is also super huge.

Investment for us, now to find tenants, should be easy, it is close to the lake, and school. ect.

Will be interested to know what you think of it. DH and I saw it at the varoma demo today and I can't cut bread straight at all - was tempted to get it but want to know how it performs first.

Went to the City on Wednesday with GD (to have a train ride) and spent my Boffins voucher won at Sewing Guild. I bought Margaret and Me (Margaret Fulton). Haven't had much of a look yet but should be interesting.

I went into the city on the train on Wednesday too troupie to the Apple Store to pick up my new iPhone 6s plus. Loving it, it's so much bigger than my old phone.
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

I confess I too bought the new iPhone 6s plus 128gb and an Apple Watch to match! Already loving the features on the watch.

I am hoping the bigger phone will let me not travel with my iPd and kindle as well.  Hard to tear me away from my mini but I am gunna try. LOL!

The only thing I've bought is Peppa Pig undies for my partly potty trained GD. She is so excited!
