Sunny makes Sun Bread

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I haven't been doing much of this blogging lark this year - i kind of lost interest, but I am feeling a resurgence.  I do like looking back over it - it is a good reminder of life lived.  Sometimes it feels like I've done nothing different or interesting to write about, but actually it is all these little everyday simple  moments that make  life what it is.  Nothing amazing but important nonetheless.  These days at home with Sunny (and the boys) are not infinite and I would like to remember how we spent them when I am old!

Anyway I was looking through the photos and found these cute ones of Sunny and thought I'd put them up.  We made Sun Bread.  It is from a very cute book -
Sun Bread  by Elisa Kleven.

I just read a very good thing (i don't know what to call it - opinion piece perhaps?)   The intellectual benefits of a real old fashioned summer...

(Even though it is the middle of winter here!!)
That is all for now, time to get out in the garden!

Alive and well

"We're all alive, but we don't know why or what for; we're all searching for happiness; we're all leading lives that are different and yet the same."

Some Songs

I was watching Rage in the wee hours the other week and these two songs came on and I liked them and scribbled down their names and later looked them up on You-Tube.  I have been listening to the first one quite a lot (over and over in fact) - i love it when a song gets you inside and you want to keep hearing it!!  I think it reminds me of days gone by.  The next one also reminds me of something, not sure what but i like it too.

Maps of Tassie

I was lucky enough to slip away last month (or was it the month before?) to Tassie with some lovely friends.  We stayed right on the harbour.   Fresh salty air, boats and seagulls. (talking, champagne, eating.......)

The Sea Shepherd was there - what a fantastic job they do!!!

 

I had some delicious (and cute) pots of chai at some groovy little cafes.

 

We went by ferry to the amazing MONA art gallery.  (Museum of Old and New Art).  What a wonder full  place.  Mona's owner David Walsh is a very interesting man (you can read about him here.)  

We started our exploration of the gallery with a 'Mad Hatter's Tea party'.

We lounged around on pink bean bags with a bottle of red and a plough man's lunch after all the exertions of walking around the gallery.

 

Some cool street performers at the Salamanca markets.

Matching car and sandals!

The apartment where we stayed was above the Drunken Admiral.
All in all a lovely interlude!!

 

Here one minute, gone the next!
