It's cold

Those of you who know me know I hate winter with a passion.......................it has been really cold this week, not cold like you northern hemisphere girls but cold for Adelaide.
I did have a lovely bright spot in the week the postie left me a parcel. It has taken until this morning for me to take some photos while the sun is shining.
It was from my friend Shirley.
Thank you Shirley your parcel was a really bright spot in a cold wintry week.
It's her birthday today and I got the present.

Gift from Shirley

It was packed full of goodies some lovely hand dyed fabric, a pattern and some of Shirley's very clever beading and a cook book. I love the card also as when you open it it make the sound of a Robin singing. It drives our dogs made if you put it on the ground and open it they walk around trying to find the bird it is so funny to watch.

Gift from Shirley

The little beaded thimble holder is amazing.

Yesterday I woke up to a thick fog so after navigating my way to and from the gym I took these. The roses that I haven't pruned were covered in webs.

After the fog
