Just lately, as always, we've been buying as much of our fresh produce as possible locally.
We're lucky enough to have a little road side stall not too far away from us, and while the honesty box may be soldered down and padlocked.......it's still nice to know they're still around.
{once you taste a home grown carrot, like one of these, you will never eat a store bought one again. I never even realised what carrots were supposed to taste like until I discovered these. so. much. flavour.}
Just lately, I am struggling to keep on running. But I do keep on running. My messed up, mumble-jumbled head needs me to keep running. It's a head clearer.
Just lately we've been setting up mud pie kitchens at Grandmas' dam.
........and stripping off, hanging clothes in the trees and going for a {very} quick dip in Grandmas' dam.
Just lately, we've been hanging out at the library.........still.
And waxing more thread {oh, and untangling thread, lots of untangling}
...........to make more books. Still loving doing that.
Just lately, I've been really loving the quaint way the ladies at the op shop bundle up the sheets/fabric for sale. Just a strip of fabric torn to tie it all together.
Just lately, and not something I do all the time, I've been taking self portraits in public toilets while waiting for my son to get moving, so I could show you that I actually did finish off those wrist warmers I started knitting, ah, a long time ago.

Wonderful post and photos!
I love fresh produce...and love seeing it sold on the side of the road, too, though infrequently.
Cute that the honors system includes a padlock in 2012! :)
So great to meet another book-binder, too! Making books is such fun!
Wishing you all the best,
Mary (from BYW 2.0)

Hi Brenda...LOVE your blog!!!! Great pics, especially the dam ones, they bring back fond childhood memories!
Thanks for your comments and I apoligize for not getting in here before now.
Mary and Anastasia, I have not been able to locate your blogs :(
fitundgluecklick, I have checked out your blog (love it, will be back for food inspiration!), but I have not been able to leave a comment, I'm not sure what kind of glitch I'm having there?
