I have been so behind lately sorry!<br />
<br />
Second suprise is my wonderful swap gifts from <a href="http://nanagogoblogs.blogspot.com/">Anne at Nana GoGo</a>. I enrolled in<a href="http://mrsyappydog.blogspot.com/"> Bettys</a> thrifty swap and got straight onto some crochet for my partner...but I am sure Anne will show you what I made for her.<br />
Just look at this generous booty though...love it all thanks Anne x<br />

Without sounding too cockey I do believe that its time to move on from grannies and try something a little more adventurous.

The only excuse I have is that of the procrastination type....not good really but I have been jolted back here thank goodness. <br />
I have kept up to date reading lots of blogs and as I am sure most of you already know the lovely Sara London, you will see her appeal going out to crocheters world-wide for their help. The crochet a rainbow project will help the devastation that hit Australia. What a fantastic way to get back in my blogging seat, my contribution is growing and will be in the post shortly......what are you waiting for people?....get ya hook out!<br />

I especially enjoy old black and white films with dancing and big frocks. Television just aint like it used to be. <br />
2:: I hate doing the weekly food shop, I have tried doing the grocery shopping online and had it delivered a few times but I don’t like it when they send "alternatives". eg a bunch of spring onions please.....I got four huge Spanish onions!<br />
3:: I love fresh flowers and flowering plants and if I see a marked down plant withering on the shop shelf I bring it home and bring it back to life. New to gardening I have worked hard through the summer and now have raised beds to have a bash at growing my own veggies.<br />
4:: Im not a social butterfly and don’t really have people around me, no friends as such. I am a homebird and like my own company. I often say to myself that I should get out more and socialise but I think it is a confidence thing.<br />
5:: I don’t drive. I did try about 15 years ago but during one of my lessons a little girl ran out in front of me. I didn’t hit her but she just stood in the middle of the road screaming and I froze. I have never been in a driving seat since.<br />
6:: I have always had a creative mind but would only result in a started cross stitch or three, a started scarf, a started dress, or even a started room decorated! Since I started blogging, reading blogs and surfing the web I am now finishing projects and always find inspiration to let my creative side flow. (still have plenty of starts to finish though!)<br />
7:: I am boring......I cant think what to write for number seven!<br />
Now I have to pass the award on to five other bloggers which is very difficult as I love y'all! So I thought I would choose five blogs that are new to me.....here you go lovely bloggists<br />

I have been working my wellies off this week digging, weeding, digging, pruning and sowing a few seeds too. My garden was so overgrown and very neglected. I have decided to use the space for growing my own veggies and fruit. Of course this decision comes a little late in the year and should have got my backside into gear in the spring but with one thing and another.....Anyway I am surprised how much I am enjoying getting stuck in (literally). My Friend <a href="http://julessewpretty.blogspot.com/">Jules</a> (check out her new summerhouse!) is so right when telling me how good gardening is for the soul. It is definitely a labour of love with lots of blood, sweat and tears and when I find myself thinking "is it worth it"? I take a break with a milky coffee and visit all the lovely gardening blogs and forums to gain inspiration and motivation. Lots of my readers and the blogs I follow have been through the process of planning and digging and have established gardens with romantic blooms and relaxing seating areas often shown in their posts. This is what keeps me going, one day I will post pics here of my lovely blooms and big veggie yields! teehee! I love browsing seed and plant catalogues (sad I know) but find them sooo expensive so I keep my eyes open on forums etc as a lot of gardeners are very generous when they have excess seeds. My sister also begged me to go and dig up her rhubarb...do any of you green fingered bloggist know the best time to do this? I am very new to "grow your own" and I am greedy for knowledge for what to sew/grow at this time of year.<br />
Anyway here are a few pics of work so far <br />
