Wish NonnaCookBooker A Happy Birthday
Happy Birthday Nonna!!!!!!!!!!!! 2 weeks ago

Hope you are having a lovely dinner tonight :)

Thank you so much for all your help today. Fingers crossed the rest of the process goes okay.

Wishing you a wonderful year ahead filled with lots of sewing, gardening and happiness.

Happy Birthday!!!

p.s. I thought you might enjoy some strawberry tiramisu cake :)



join a book club
Some progress 1 month ago

For awhile I was a bit lost as to how to go about finding a book club to join and now, suddenly, I have a few leads.

When I was at the library the other day I happened to notice an advert for a local book club. I just called the contact listed then and they meet on the third Wednesday every month. The group consists of mostly women and there are about 12 members. I have organised to go along next month to see what it’s like.

There’s also a book club that meets at my local Borders – I noticed a flyer the other day. So I need to email the contact there and find out about that one too.



meet someone from 43things
I met 2 months ago

the lovely Pippi today with nonna. I’m in Tasmania, visiting this week, and we made our way this morning to a market where Pippi had a stall. It was great to meet in person and her jewellery was gorgeous :)
