A Brilliant Day
Yesterday was a brilliant day.
MORNING
Breakfast with loved ones in a Balinese garden:
Poached eggs with hollandaise sauce and smoked salmon on sourdough toast
MIDDAY
Continue crocheting The Rubbish Vortex in the garden. Phone calls and visits from loved ones.
AFTERNOON
Swim in the rock pool. Ocean temperature 24 degrees Celsius. Walk back home along the beach finding sandstone abstractions.
Harvesting Habanero chillies from my garden.
EVENING
Continue crocheting The Rubbish Vortex and making plastic bag yarn.
LATER
To Bed. Dreaming of the brilliant 50th birthday I just had.
oh such a beautiful day,..
please invite me next time :)

Oh, Helle,
so glad that you had SUCH a beautiful day. I feel sunkissed just hearing about it.
You MUST crochet those rock formations into soft cashmere cushions to lounge on.
Happy 50th. Wish I could have been there to make you a fresh evening cocktail to match your vortex stitches.
take care
Inga

Congratulations!!! Sounds like you had a lovely day.
Love those eroded shapes in the sandstone - they look ideal for hiding treasure.
best wishes,julia x

Thank you both. It was a really laid back day.
Uschi...... I would love some light-green bags. They are really hard to get here. Perfect for algae.

Happy happy 50th, Helle!! Sounds like you are having a wonderful time! I would have given something to explore these sandstone-sculptures with you..these beautiful shades of sand-colours.
Do you still need bags in light-green? Some algae;))
