Stitching progress
My tea towel embroidery started at Mikes a couple of weeks back is actually completed! However, when I gave it a rinse, the fuschia thread bled! Boo hoo!!! Cheater threads that say they are colourfast! Here is a pic of it just before it was going to be done. It looks a little sadder now. :(

Visit to the Organic Expo
Went to the Organic Expo yesterday. It was great fun! So many things to buy and sample! I didn't expect that it would be that large too. I tried to buy as much as I could carry since everything was cheaper than the usual prices. Luckily Darlink came to help me lug them all home. Pity it doesn't happen here every year though.

Attempt at sprouting
Bought some organic wheat grains yesterday so that I could try sprouting some greens for Bobbers. While doing some research on the methods of sprouting, I found out that almonds can also be sprouted (or rather, soaked). A couple of useful references - here and here.
Almond and wheat grains
Normal almond and soaked almond
Is that a sprout I see? (They taste good like that!)
Bobbers will have to wait a little bit longer for the wheat grains to sprout. :D

Spring is here!
| You Belong in Spring |
Optimistic, lively, and almost always happy with the world... You can truly appreciate the blooming nature of spring. Whether you're planting flowers or dyeing Easter eggs, spring is definitely your season! |
Yes! It must be my favourite season :D

Eating with gusto
I realised that when she is really excited about her food, she seems to forget to hold her ears upright and they start to get in the way! :D
Which Sesame Street character are you?
| You Are Bert |
Extremely serious and a little eccentric, people find you loveable - even if you don't love them! You are usually feeling: Logical - you rarely let your emotions rule you You are famous for: Being smart, a total neat freak, and maybe just a little evil How you life your life: With passion, even if your odd passions (like bottle caps and pigeons) are baffling to others. |
Gee....this is quite true...:S

Stitching night at Mikes
I finally made myself get up and go out to meet some new people at stitching night yesterday at Meet Me At Mikes. Got to meet and talk to Pip, Brooke, Peipei and Mel. Being the awfully shy person that I am, I think that is not too bad for a start. I'll get to meeting other people the next time. :D
I didn't get very far in completing my pattern but it is a good start for something I haven't done in ages. Pip also made pears for everyone and I won a prize in the lucky dip. There were pretty cupcakes, biscuits, tea and cordial so all in all a lovely night! I'll need to go again to finish my tea towel. Hehehe!

Visit to the Pixar exhibition
Went to the Pixar exhibition at ACMI today. It was interesting looking at all the various forms of illustration that go into the making of the movies and wishing I could draw!

Long lost poetry
While rummaging around in my boxes today, I found a collection of photocopied pages of a poetry book that I really liked a long while back. I wished that I could have that book so much that I kept borrowing it from the library. If I could remember what book that was now I would definitely buy it if I can find it.


A good sign!
Didn't put this up earlier because I couldn't get it out of my phone with my computer not set up. On the day that I collected the new apartment keys and went there, we actually saw a rainbow right before our eyes spanning right across the balcony! It was lovely and it was a really nice welcome. :D
