Yesterday I attended the Murrumbidgee Lachlan Group CWA luncheon at Barellan. We had a beautiful chinese lunch. And guess who the winner of the group raffle was - yes me!!!And this was the prize - a hand made glass plate these photos don't do justice to it

 

 

The creator of this beautiful piece is Elaine Marshall - and you can see all of her beautiful creations by clicking on the link. Make sure you have a look at the beautiful vases that Elaine makes. Her shop is in West Wyalong, NSW. Then the lucky Door Prize was drawn and guess who won that also - yes me!! I was feeling a little bit embarrassed about winning both. The prize was a lovely gift basket full of biscuits and chocolates. So yesterday became the highlight of my week!!!

 

Naughty me... sitting in my FQ stash and in my cup cupboard are 3 gifts that I won in a giveaway over at the lovely DASHA'S blog (pop over and check out this sweet blog)

 

 

two beautiful FQ's above and this beautiful mug from Maxwell Williams - 'Birds of The World' (Katherine castle). Now these little beauties are Fairy Wrens.

 

When I opened the parcel my mother and sister were there and, get this, THEY thought it might be a good idea for me to 'gift' my 'gift' to one of them. Strange how great minds were not thinking alike that day!! This cup was MINE I told them and mine it is. Thank you so much Dasha I love all 3 gifts!! 

 

What has everyone been up to for Valentines Day?? In this cards were exchanged and we decided to go out for tea. A spur of the moment decision to go out to tea on Valentines Day is  a silly decision - we checked out 7 dining establishments - looked in the windows of 4 as we drove past, and actually parked the car and went inside 3 of them, AND they were all FULL!!!! So we went and bought fish and chips, and some seafood salad, and came home and had our Valentines Dinner!!! Lesson learnt! At least I was saved from cooking and cleaning up!!
