My weekend

I love weekends.  I count down the weekdays until the weekends arrive (and feel bad that I am wishing away time like that!) but I just absolutely adore my weekends.  I love sleeping in, heading out for brunch, watching the football, going out to dinner, sewing...just the little leisurely things you don't get to do during the week.

This weekend I worked on a birthday present for my little sister (shhh - don't tell her!) from Cath Kidston's Sew.  I'm almost finished - hurrah! For the first time in a long time I don't have multiple crafting projects going on at the same time.  I shall hopefully rectify that soon, although I'm not sure what I want to work on next?  My quilt was such a mammoth effort I felt in need of a little crafting break.  But...back to it now!

We also headed out to our local council's Sustainability Expo.  It was only a small event but it was good nonetheless.  The picture in the middle is our new Bokashi Bin which I'm (sadly) very excited about.  I have been very much missing our Brisbane backyard and worm farm lately.  Living in an apartment makes things a little tricky but the Bokashi Bin means no more throwing out organic waste from our kitchen anymore.  Plus our little garden will love us for the fertilizer it will receive :)

We also did lots of laying on the couch and keeping warm with my newly finished quilt and our two cuddly kitties.  Kitties who aren't normally very cuddly but are obviously feeling the Melbourne cold as much as we are right now.  That's Alex up there.  Isn't he just adorable?

And now it's Monday yet again, so let us battle on through to Friday afternoon.
