Seeing Spots!

Hello Sweetpeas,

It has been a week of crazy weather. Hot, Cold, Rain, Wind......wish it would make it's mind up!

We did manage to do some gardening though. 

Lots of new veggies have been planted, hopefully in time for Christmas. 

Fingers crossed!

There's a ladybug invasion!! They are everywhere.

See!


in the nasturtiums, 

on the carrots...

here's a stalky picture of mum harvesting calendula seeds through the massive tomato bushes....

A HA!!! Caught out.....making good use of their thyme! no wonder there's so many of the little buggers..... (sorry, getting a bit carried away with the puns..)

They sure like the thyme. Must be good bug realty. Ladybugville.

Enough silliness. Down to business.

I am planning to DO the markets at Moruya on the 10th of December.

GAH. So much organising. Buying a gazebo and table, organising packaging and prices, working out merchandising and not to mention actually MAKING the stuff to sell. 

AND, silly me decides to go to Sydney this week to see Grinderman in concert. 

It's Nick Cave. What's a girl to do? There is no resisting Nick's magnetism. Not to mention that violin wielding Warren Ellis. 

I'm a little excited. 

Can you tell?  

Anyway, here are some mechanising pics I've taken. 

What d'all think?

Maybe I've been spending too much time looking at ladybugs in the garden with the macro lens.... 

Bookplates....

Albert.

Eustace.

Ferdinand.

Manny.

Reginald.

Rudy.

and some Smitten Kittens. 

This creepy little guy is my deadline. 

Always watching and sneaking up behind me!!

And just because I am a lost cause here is some Grinderman for you. :)
