Mother's Day;

The vegetable gardener, Poeta and Scientist, closed his eyes and handed over the finances.
Considering ( the little money I spend) I had quite a good shopping spree.

No, I did not buy this rose. Elina grows in my garden from a cutting, which was free from my daughter's garden.


I bought a new teapot. Botanic blue from Portmeirion.


I really "needed" a new shopping bag. Who could say no to this snazzy piece. (It is not leather, fine for me.)


Who would guess that this cute purse is woven from bamboo. It is from Ciannis.


My favourite, a new journal, spring green embossed with flowers, made in Italy.


I can not wait to use all these blank pages.



A little egghead...a tape measure (they always disappear) this one has a magnet and hopefully stays on the fridge door.
I had a few nice Mother's Days staying with my second daughter in the hinterland of the Sunshine Coast. The cottage has no electricity, outdoor toilet had a wonderful view in to the bush. Shower had piping hot water and in the evening the solar lights came on. In the morning a chorus of bird song was welcoming the new day.
