This has been a crazy-busy week!
On top of wrapping up last-minute orders, finishing off as much *bespoke* and other work as possible, and getting organised for our trip, I also had to travel into Brisbane twice this week. Once for a dentist check-up (all good – hooray!) and also to give a lecture at UQ on Wednesday (which was ace).
We have been cleaning out the garden, trying to eat all our produce before we go – Nick pulled out a good harvest of baby carrots and radishes – and combined with some home-grown beans and some tofu, it made one very yummy stir-fry! And that was the best jug of juice ever, no lie!
I’m getting all my favourite dresses washed and ready to go – trouble is, I can’t decide which ones to take with me! #firstworldproblems
The Gobster has been keeping us company day and night – it’s cold for a little kitty, so he’s been spending a lot of time under the covers. In fact, as I type this he’s rugged up right here in bed with Nick and I, with just his little face and paws sticking out, fast asleep.
And just so you know – nope, it’s nowhere NEAR cold enough to actually have a real frozen lake in a Brisbane winter – but a fake one has been set up in the middle of the city as part of a winter festival – I would love to skate there at night under the city lights! Alas, we thought it best to avoid any such possibly-bone-breaking activities in the lead-up to our vacation.
Now, on to today! I must pack and ship the a few last orders, answer some more e-mail… not to mention actually start packing my bags!
Happy Friday!

How fantastic that the BCC has an ice-skating rink under the blue sky for you to skate on! Heaven. I really miss skating on the frozen canal in Munich — skating in a building just doesn’t cut it for me any more. :o( If you can manage it up there in Sunny Brisbane, surely someone can sort one out for us!
Good luck getting everything done before you go. Have fun!
Thanks Robyn! And skating on a frozen canal sounds like a dream to me!
