on a summer holiday

I've just returned to Wellington after a stunning summer holiday in the Coromandel. Gosh nothing beats a beautiful New Zealand summer! A good friend joined me for a few days and we had a mini tiki tour around Hahei beach and Cathedral Cove. Ahhhhhh!

 

 

  

 

 

 

 

Pom Pom Pom

Last Sunday I visited a friend for the evening... we watched Cry Baby, drank coffee too late at night, and made things with balls of wool. I crocheted this tenny tiny hat for my cousins brand new little man, Tom.

Pom Pom Rug Update: No progress. But how cute is this baby hat with a pom pom on top?!

on getting an education

sometimes i learn the hard way. this can be VERY hard sometimes but at least i'm learning. tonight i'm taking advice from my father. advice that i've heard more than a few times now. to dust myself off (with or without your dignity intact, either will do just fine) and to get back on the bike (he's got a good story about his motorcycle that always accompanied this and today i do miss it).
