LIFE CAN BE GOOD
Click to enlarge each photo. I know how small photos annoy you all.
1. Wonderful sweet biscuit assortments and beautiful wrapping holding biscuits from Recurrant for Afternoon Tea - a little bloggy baking thing I organised with Nicole. I was going to email Kath for the recipes, but I see she's already thought ahead. (There are none left, and Max taste tested at least half of them). Kath - I know what this week is about for you, and I'm doing it too, so these were perfectly timed, and I am doubly amazed you got the time and energy to make them!
2. Material and ribbon shopping at Tessuti (no web link)
3. Dinner set for Max from Jackie Shapiro for Frenchbull. I couldn't find Max's set here, his has a bongo playing Monkey on it, but the entire range is gorgeous.
4. Ruby Red socks nearly done.
5. The lovely Mona who steered me in the right direction for the wool Veronik Avery sent me. It's AmiAmi AHS Slub Kasuri. While you're there, have a little look at all the other yarns they have too.
6. The new Knitscene magazine by Interweave Press - particularly the Knit Spotting link. Page 50 of the paper magazine - that's me and Cari being world photographers, and loving it. So very amazed and flattered to have been asked by Veronik to take photographs, and to see the results.
7. Inspiring me:: Ping's wawaya (they are even more gorgeous in real life):: Nebo Peklo's artwork :: Architectural discourse :: I'm going through an art and architecture splurge at the moment.
Need new batteries for the camera. Need to take rechargeable battery pack out of the packaging and actually plug it in. Need a snooze. Need my husband back (to make me coffee in the morning....I miss that. Oh, and I miss him terribly too). Need to now go and do somethign for me while child is off with grandparents. Somewhere, there's a half eaten biscuit left....
Thanks for the great links.

Aha! The mystery wool identified! Now it's a matter of finding the perfect project for it. I'll let you go first. ;)

Those are wonderful links, thanks!
Tessuti has a site @ www.tessuti.com.au - but general info only, no online shopping. I miss that place so much, it's always on my "to do list" when I'm back in Sydney.

Great pics indeed. I noticed that. We have something in common now, (besides Kate) but you'll have to ask for me to tell you.
