My internal clock seems to have gone a bit haywire of late. I’ve always been a night owl but these days if I’m in bed by 12.30am I’m doing well. Of course I’m not actually tired so then I read ‘til 2 or 3am. This also means I get up around midday & half the day is gone. On the upside I hate mornings so this is one way of dodging them. :-)
‘Bee in my Bonnet’ is a lovely blog I follow & Lori the owner is having a giveaway. You could win a Bee in my Bonnet pattern & believe me they are gorgeous!!!!
Please pop over & have a look but you’ll have to be quick it ends tomorrow!!!

This week’s it’s My Favourite Colour/s.
Well my fave colour is aqua/turquoise but just lately I’ve been attracted to colour combinations rather than just a single colour, so I thought I’d share my latest project, which is rather colourful.
I’m on my 4th attempt, I could not get my bottom flat!!!! Well the bottom of my bag that is. :-) This is the best I could do, not perfect but you’d be impressed if you’d seen the previous attempts, lol.
I’ve finished the bottom & am now working my way up the sides. It’s actually much brighter than this in real life the lt. pink has washed out.
Ta-da my Australia Day mantlepiece!!
We put the Vegemite back in the fridge after the shot was taken. :-) & yes I know some people keep it in the cupboard but we like it cold.
I hope you’re all enjoying the day, we’re doing our usual, lazing on the lounge & watching tv. I’ve started making a ‘Lucy’ Attic 24 crochet bag. The base is not a nice flat circle but I’m hoping it will be ok. Pics later if it turns out. :-))
That there should be a good Gluten Free bread mix available in 2011?????
I’ve used Basco bread mix for about 25 years. Originally it was more like cake than bread so I simply threw in some sultanas & just spread it with marge for lunch. Over the years they changed the formula until it became ‘bread.’ Not bread like the normal stuff you buy at the shops, but as close to bread as seemed possible. It thawed out well to eat & it toasted well. Then a couple of months ago, for some unknown reason, they changed it again. Now it does not thaw out well, it is dry & inedible. So the search has been on for a new bread mix. I’ve tried 3 so far, today’s being the worst of the lot. Looked great, nice & crusty but the flavour, YUCK!!! Even dh said it was awful & he eats anything. So if there is anyone out there, who knows of a good Gluten Free bread mix available in Australia or who has a good recipe please speak up. I’m sick of corn frisbies for breakfast & lunch.
I want a sandwich,
I want egg on toast.
Surely that’s not too much to ask!!!!!!! Pout!!!
Btw I emailed Basco, they didn’t respond.
Like most people I’ve been watching of the floods & the aftermath & feeling totally useless.
Yesterday I found a way to help on a blog I’d only just discovered. I could explain it all to you but it’s easier if you just go to this blog & see what a difference 2 wonderful ladies can make.

Please take the time to check it out & if you can afford to kick in a few dollars, please do so.
I think what they are doing is brilliant & worth remembering if something like this happens in my area.
Fairs, fair so Zaphod gave Molly a bath. :-)
He also has fun trying to grab things on my computer screen. 
I haven’t had a cat in my life for a year & it’s only now I have one again, I realise life is SO much better with a cat in it.
