These are my favourite photos from our trip to Ottawa last week. I had to do a presentation for work so we decided to go for a few days and look around at the capital city. A highlight was walking across a bridge from the province of Ontario to Quebec, and an unplanned tour of Indian mystic buffets. It rained almost the whole time we were there, until we got on the train to go home. I spent the train rides reading a fantastic book and watching out the window at the beautiful fields and forests with snow. Last week also marked the first consistently warm temperatures and the dusting off of my bike. SPRING!
I haven’t been making much lately. Though, for Christmas this year I got a kit for making sock creatures. I’ve made two – here is one inspired by My Neighbour Totoro and a lonely bedsock whose other half is probably under a bed or couch in one of the many places I stayed during our visit back home.




hello there……glad to see that the unusual present has been used!!!!!
Hope all well with you. Max head back on Tuesday – they will be sad.
Stephens tomatoes are fruiting in abundance and Helen is making chutney and tomato sauce!
I have a ‘new’ car and Sam has the Subaru. My new one is easier for Grandma to get in and out of. and is red. G’Ma is fine – went to a play this afternoon.
Have lost 13kg since Xmas and still going!
