Weekending







Well it's been a while since I did a weekending post, but here's what I got up to this weekend.
  • relaxing on Friday night, after a somewhat manic week at work - a new magazine and a glass of chardonnay, the perfect way to start the weekend
  • in the garden - lots of weeding, cutting back and planting new plants  Pleased to see my passionfruit vine has started flowering, lots more buds on it too, here's hoping I get a bumper crop after last years rather drastic pruning gave me a total of about 12 fruit.
  • in the sewing room - finally I have made a start on the final Christmas placemat , so nice to be sewing again.  
  • in the kitchen - this recipe for school (and work) lunchbox treats
Wishing you all a fabulous week ahead,

  4. Lovely placemat, you have quite a knack for making those fabrics look really 'Christmas-y'. Good old weetbix, haven't made that slice for years! Thanx for the link, I've printed out your recipe and will make it when Olive comes to play!

  5. What a lovely way to start a Monday Julie! Everything here looks delightful! Isn't that passionfruit flower beautiful!? Will you cook with your passionfruit or just savour their juicy flavour?!
