Icecreams and Shrek

Market Weekend!

I'm off to The Village Market tomorrow, sharing a stall with the wonderful Alipink.

It's our first time at this market - which isa Young Designers/Vintage Jumble Sale/Handmade treasure trove. I can't wait! Just have to make sure I sell more than I buy ;)

Here's a sneak peak of some new things I'll be selling:

A is for Australia.

The "Team Cuisine" Challenge, as it has been nicknamed, continued last week on Australia Day. It seemed a logical choice for A. We would all be together, and all having that quintessential Australian Meal - the BBQ.


The Menu:
BBQ - KangarooSausages "Kanga Bangas", chicken sausages, rosemary and lamb sausages, beef sausages, bacon, onions, corn.
Coleslaw, chopped lettuce and tomato, beetroot (of course!) and cheese to make burgers.
Various homemade dips and awesome cheese platters.


For Dessert - Anzac Biscuits and Lamingtons. These went down an absolute treat after a swim!

It was the perfect Australia Day! Lots of friends, good food, beers, a swim, kids running around everywhere and the JJJ Hottest 100 playing in the background.

A little bit of Crafty Love to go Around

A craft "Pay it Forward"
I found this "pay it forward" at Kint's Blog.I'm joining in because I love handmade gifts, I love sending parcels in the post, I love the DUST Craft swaps I participate in, and it sounded like fun!

Here's the deal:
■I will make a handmade gift for the first 3 people who comment on this post.
■I have 365 days in which to do it.
■What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise!

The catch is that you must participate as well ~ you must also pay it forward. Write up a little pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going.

I don't know what I will send you! But I will post pics here, and I will handmake it with love.
