Keepin Busy...

I think I must be trying to fit in as much social interaction as I possibly can before bubs arrives as this week has been pretty busy..... On the weekend I went to Bookfest, a big fundraiser for Lifeline where they sell a heap of second hand books and clothes etc. It's the first time I've been to the one here in Rocky as every other year I seemed to be working - was a bit disappointed about the size of it (just kept repeating to myself "I now live in Rockhampton, I now live in Rockhampton) as the ones I've been to previously in Toowoomba have been massive, however it was cheaper than I exected - I ended up getting a whole bag of books for just $20!!




I have never heard of half of them, but I don't really care - they look like they might be interesting and if not, I'll just give them back to Lifeline and they can sell them again next year! Speaking of books, Amanda had the great idea for a few of us to start our own book club... sounds great to me as I don't have to worry about whether my view on a book is "intellectual" enough or not. And we also get to pick the books so no boring ones! We are getting together this weekend to come up with a list of books so it will be interesting to see which ones make it on there. I would put a link in to Amanda but as of yet she doesn't have a blog... hint hint!!


Saturday night, a group of us went around to Hayley's place for dinner - she has the most amazing back deck - it is just huge! Then on Monday night, Amanda and her hubby Mark came around to our place for dinner, she even brought some Chocolate Bavarian which was yummy - I have had a hankering for some for the last couple of weeks now. On a (kind of) unrelated topic - is Chocolate Bavarian a cheescake or what - we decided that it was kind of like an ice cream cake but if you have a different view let me know!

Guess what I got in the mail yesterday!



Page by Page - a zine put together by the talented Samantha Kira! I've been waiting on it for a while so I was so glad when it arrived here safely - can never be too sure about Australia Post, although the only thing that I've had lost so far was something that was registered - go figure! I've been a frequent stalker of her blog and she even has an online workshop coming up which looks like it will be great fun... might have to sign up for it!

Well, must go as my Mum is here visiting me for the week (see what I mean about social interaction) and I've left her upstairs watching Huey's Cooking (fun).

Bye!
