Is that the ice cream truck or a kookaburra I hear out there?
mom told me that when you hear the music it means the truck is all out of ice cream.

Walking in a winter wonderland
while walking barefoot along the back beach this morning, I was amused to discover that Australian kids are also willing to brave the winter elements to experience the joys of sledding.
Luckily there was a roaring fire and hot cocoa waiting.
some things are universal.

what a lucky find. while visiting my daughter in perth, australia i was delighted to discover that the friend we were meeting for tea was actually jenni, the artist behind the amazing world of art candy. jenni, modestly describes her work as, ‘sweetness with soul,’ and that is an understatement. i’ve admired her work online for quite a while, and am happy to know that others around the world have discovered her. jenni hand-makes unique cards, paintings, alphabets, and other magical delights. while there, i saw her works in progress and was even allowed a peek into her glitter drawer. it was an amazing morning spent with a wonderful, creative spirit. since art school, jenni has been inspired by a love of language, especially slang, colour, and a sheer exuberance for life. if you have a moment, take a peek into her work and her world, through the link i’ve provided. i think you’ll be delighted by what you find.

Old man winter takes a trip to the southern hemisphere
Deep in the heart of winter down under, aussies everywhere are gearing up, as the temp dips to a dangerously low 56F. comments such as, ‘ I cannot take this freezing weather one day longer!’, ‘ how are we expected to get through this ?’and ‘how long will this last?!, are heard on the street. Scarves, mittens, hats, winter coats, boots, hot water bottles, and of course, a cup of hot tea all come into play. I feel the air and i look to the sky and I wonder…….
there is no such thing as bad weather, only different kinds of good weather.

Freestyle in Fremantle
Heaps of fun in freemantle – charge up the side of a hill, prison break, artist’s market, outdoor cafe, tea breaks, favorite fairy store, picking up some sort of accent that sounds more Asian/Czech than Australian.
I didn't have my glasses on....
