Saturday 24/Apr

Today I bought a down sleeping bag to take to Europe with me. I was so expensive, yet so snugly... I feel like a witchetty grub in it!

Sunday 28/Mar

Today I went with my mum to the Perth Upmarket in the recently storm-ravaged Winthrop Hall at UWA. It is a massive collection of hand crafted items. It filled the main hall, entrance, and the large room underneath! With so many stalls to peruse, and a limited time (as I had work) it was a very colourful haze of quirky wares. Here are a few of the favourite things I saw:

• Super cool hand painted shoes by SamanthaHughes (who doesn't want tentacles on thier cons?)
• Amazingly delicate silver jewellery by Jasmin Jones
• Very stylish 100% wool felt bits from Bug & Megs
• A stall from local design house Pigeonhole
• And (my only purchase... see how well restrained I was!) really snazzy little coin purses from B.H.O.

P.S. I am getting embarrassed by how large "shopping" is becoming in the labels side-bar.

Sunday 21/Mar

Today I went to Fremantle book-hunting. I found the most amazing old book shop (that is the books were old, not the shop). It was full to the brim with novels, and leather bound books, old non-fiction as well, so many Penguin Modern Classics, Biographies etc. It was amazing, and the lady was so friendly sitting there listening to the BBC with her old dog. It was such a great find!

I got "The Great Gatsby" by F. Scott Fitzgerald as I had never read it before. It's Quite good!

Thursday 18/Mar

Today I went shopping with Nat and Talweez, we went into a poster store, and I fell in love with this Dr WHO poster! Just had to have it since David Tennant just finished being the tenth and most awesome Doctor... I already miss him!

Monday 15/Mar

Today I bought 3m of black satin bias binding for my sewing class dress. hopefully I don't have to use it all as bias binding always does my head in!

Wednesday 10/Mar

Today I got served by my favourite Spotlight lady... She has worked there since I can remember, and always asks what you are going to make, and has a little joke.

Saturday 6/Mar

Today I dropped all the fruit and veg in the carpark outside the market because the bottom of the box fell through... needless to say we had to go back inside to get new eggs!
