one, one hundred and a holiday

This little blog turns one on the 18th of December, although it started with such a crap first post the date seems hardly worth celebrating. Our little family however will, on that day, be in the blissful world of the un-connected somewhere on the north coast of Kangaroo Island.

Spookily enough, this is actually my one hundredth post. How did that work out?

In light of these vaguely interesting numbers, I'd like to take a few centimetres of cyberspace to say thank you to all the lovely people I have connected with via this space in the last (almost) year. I'm immensely grateful for the internet that allows the connection of like-minded souls across the world or around the corner. I love youse all *sob~hic~invade personal space~collapse in corner*

I started this blog for two reasons:

1. to keep a record of the things I sewed
2. to better join in the online sewing/crafting/parenting community.

Well yay, mission accomplished!

Additionally, it's encouraged me to take more photos and in particular, keep a journal in pictures and words of our boys as they grow and do all the silly things they do.

Other blogs have taught me and inspired me so much and I hope I'm 'giving back' a little too. I feel more committed to trying to live mindfully and sustainably. I like how this little space reminds me of the wonderful things I have in my life, and of what's really important.

And now back to our regularly scheduled frivolity... I think it's time for a picture of something completely juvenile. I call this "from our fertile garden".

two garlics and a um, leek

We'll be back right before the big man comes down the chimney.
