Today I Like… {10/12/11}
Today Nick and I had a stall at the BrisStyle Indie Designers Market. It was a great day - not only for sales, but because I got to catch up with a whole lot of my local crafty friends! I also splurged a little bit on pretties - a couple of them are my 'Christmas...

Simple Pleasures ~ Reading {Brandi Hussey}
There's something a little magical about having a new book to dive into. The way a hardcover creaks a little as you open it the first time. How the pages beckon you in, how they don't quite lay flat yet. Or how satisfying clicking the next page button is on an ebook...
Today I Like… {7/12/11}
Today I ventured into the city to give my regular lecture at UQ, and to stock a cube at Bleeding Heart (you can now find a range of Vintette goodness in there). Now, we all know I don't get down to the city much - country girl that I am - so I like to people-watch...
