Feel the love!

I'm really getting into this living-in-Hobart thing! My Tassie blog project is starting to bulge already with all sorts of local goodies, and looking back through it I feel excited and proud of what my home-state is coughing up!
There is so much more upcoming over the next few months... folk festivals, wooden boat festival, Taste festival, 10 Days on the Island...plus we're going on a clan holiday to some supposedly fantastic holiday "shacks" (think faancy!) in Bicheno. Can't wait to post gorgeous photos of that! (Can't wait to have gorgeous experience, more's the point!)
Meanwhile, it's beginning to look a lot like Christmas around our place... the first time we've really decorated or "done" Christmas together at our home. The out-laws are all flying over for a few days so it will be a prety big week all up! Woohoo!

Inspiration.


It's been kind of a big week for me. Someone very important to me had a medical miracle performed on him...well perhaps delicate neurosurgery is all in a day's work for the neurosurgeon, but to us he is a god. Recovery is going well, and it has renewed my sense of rightness in being here.

And on a much lighter and fluffier note, I was inspired yesterday by a market of crafting mothers, and will try my damndest to be a part of this venture next year. Read more about it here.
We're off to another market today, a design market in the IXL Courtyard at Hunter St. Can't wait to see what there is... hopefuly not too many Huon Pine pepper grinders. The world only needs so many of them!
