Tea Flavours - so much tea, as you can tell from previous posts, I drink tea. So much tea! Lately I have fallen back in love with French Earl Grey and Madagascan Vanilla by T2.
Tea Cups - I pulled my collection of the Turkish Tea Cups & Saucers by T2 out from the cupboard they live in, just so I could enjoy their colours and get them ready for their new home in my 1950's vintage buffet unit that I am picking up from Hobart this coming weekend. Oh they will look divine in it! Photos to come, of course!
Sweet Scents & Pet Memories - I've been burning a handmade soy candle that I picked up from last months Apron Design Market - it is set in a vintage ornate glass dish, positioned perfectly in front of one of my favourite photos of my dear pooch Jazz, who we lost almost a year ago - where has that time gone? Miss you every day boy! And my poor Bloss, I miss her so much. Life sure is less amazing without pets.
Knitting - It's been 18 years since my grandmother taught me how to knit a rainbow yarn scarf. I don't know how my young mind managed such patience to continue through and finish it, but I know I did! So I took a few Youtube tutorials, purchased new bamboo knitting needles and lovely soft yarn with the goal to make an infinity loop scarf... that means I have to knit 1.4m - wouldn't be such a problem if I didn't cast on in excess of 60 stitches initially! Rookie error! Nevertheless, I am chipping away at it. Since starting this piece, I have bought more needles and yarn in different colours, practiced different stitches and added balls of yarn to a piece. It is true what they say - practice does make perfect! And I have a whole lot more practice still ahead of me!
