Morning!!

Good morning! Or is that afternoon...I'm having trouble keeping up with daylight savings! Isn't it all upside down when the time changes? I do love the extra light at the end of the day and so do the chookies who are not complaining about some extra foraging time. They are so funny, when they see me come outside they run, helter skelter, towards me, like a group of ladies holding their skirts. Shutting them in at night is going to be easier too as I just lure them into their boudoir with a handful of grain and bobs your uncle (or auntie) doors are shut, goodnight Irene. No need for a torch or a precarious trek in the dark.


The weekend just gone was busy as usual. The kids helped me to have a little stall of second had bits & pieces to help the local kindergarten with their fundraiser. We didn't sell a lot but managed to see lots of lovely friends and Lucy was excited to win the third prize in a raffle. Sunday looked sweet in her wreath.

It's all go at Dandelion at the moment. I've just finished this little bunny...

do you like her pink cardi?

She has such long legs & ears...! She doesn't have a name yet. Any suggestions? Something pretty would be nice.

Here is her cousin, Adelaide. She is my first vintage tablecloth bunny. I'm very happy with how she has turned out. I know Mum enjoyed knitting her red cardigan, seeing as it is her favourite colour.

Both these bunnies are leaving shortly to reside at the new and fabulous Lark shop, here in Daylesford!! If you haven't been into this delicious shop yet then make a bee line for it. Allison & Paul have done a fantastic job setting it up & the shop is full of wonderful treasures from all over, including some local makers such as Kate from Foxs Lane.

My Love Hearts are also there as well as some Blanket Birdies.

Do pop in for a visit, you will just love it!

Mr Bill, my one and only son, had a friend over to play yesterday. They played like boys do, cannon balls off the cubby roof, a basketball competition, lots of noise & no complications. It was so good to hear the sounds of boys playing. I love my girls but it's often a girl dominated house and I think this is becoming harder for Bill as he gets older. He did have a low moment after his friend went home, wishing he had a brother. I guess we'll just have to make sure he gets to hang out with boys more often! While I'm on the subject of Bill, he is going into hospital on Wednesday for some dental work. I am feeling quite anxious about it as he is having a general anaesthetic. I'm sure everything will be fine but boy will I be glad when Wednesday is over.

So it's Monday and a brand new week. Have you been keeping up with the Blogtober gang? Are you doing it yourself - how is it going? I'm not sure I could blog everyday but I'm enjoying reading everyone's posts, although it's hard to comment on them all! Hope you have a great week, dear bloggy friends xo
