Curiosity : Meet me at Frankie's


Among the many gorgeous blogs I check daily, Meet Me At Mikes is a favourite crafty one. It's clever and nice and funny and everything I look for in a friend. The other day they had a post called Here's Where I'm Up To and they encouraged other bloggers to steal their idea (like only a good friend would). So I did. And here's what I'm up to...

Making : A silly card for hubby's birthday tomorrow... drawn with crayon
Cooking :
A whole chook with preserved lemon and Herbie's Jamaican Jerk seasoning in the slow roaster
Drinking :
Dandelion tea with manuka honey
Reading: Lovely Bones
by Alice Sebold
Wanting:
A roomy (massive), dreamy (old yet structurally perfect) three-story terrace on Bourke St to decorate
Looking:
For new ways to decorate our current terrace home!
Playing: Little Voice
by Sara Bareilles
Wasting:
Less and less the older I get
Sewing:
Not so much, really
Wishing:
These early spring days would go on forever
Enjoying:
The sun rising a little earlier each day
Waiting:
For an excuse to wear my new Miss Selfridge maxi
Liking:
Green & Black's organic dark chocolate with cherries (if by 'liking' you mean 'addicted to and cannot live a day without')
Wondering:
What new words my niece is trying out this week
Loving:
Stewed apple and rhubard with fresh ginger on my morning porridge
Hoping: I can find a good, local upholsterer for my bargain chairs that won't rip me off
Marvelling:
At the nasty sting a paper cut can deliver
Needing:
A bandaid
Smelling:
The divine Sohum Apple Fig & Vanilla candle on my desk
Wearing:
MNG peachy pink cardi, FCUK jeans & ugg boots
Following:
The creative lives of angry chickens, pretty things, constant gatherers & funny cats
Noticing:
How much happier I am with a kitchen full of organic whole foods
Knowing:
Enough about pesticides and hormones... ewww... to stay well away
Thinking:
About how much I'll enjoy devouring my new Mindfood mag tonight
Feeling:
Good
Bookmarking:
Etsy Etsy Etsy, Oi, Oi, Oi
Opening: The glossy black door to No. 9 this morning to meet a friend for brunch was the nicest surprise
Giggling: At the sigh of a sheep toy being tossed about by my staffie
