A non quilty post

I've been tagged by Tracey... and there are rules.... not real keen on rules.... but here goes....

The first rule is that I tell you eight things about me

1. I don't eat seafood - not even a prawn, a fish finger or a scallop and especially not calamari
2. I love shelling prawns so go figure that one out - rather odd huh?
3. I believe that chocolate is a whole food group all on it's own and must be eaten daily
4. I am really bad at keeping in touch with my dearly beloved friends. You know who you are, you're the ones who ALWAYS contact me for a coffee/chat and ALWAYS forgive me my sins
5. I really really hate mosquitoes, especially at 3 in the morning
6. I kiss my cats (eewwww, I hear you say)
7. I think a condensed milk sandwich is acceptable - dare you to try it
8. I am going to be the BEST grandma ever!! Don't know how many years I'll have to wait but I will be the best...... and I am patient.... and I can prove it - I made an embroidered wool pram blanket in 1996. The blanket and I are silently waiting for it's owner to be created.



Don't you just love that??? Fresh eggs.....

But I digress..... another rule is that I tag eight others but I'm squibbing out on that one.... sorry Tracey! Instead I'd like to tell you about eight blogs I visit regularly...


Diane over at Peddlecar Quilts because I was her secret santa and she designs amazing quilts

Lyn at Blue Bird Quilts who writes from the heart and always sends us her 'warm regards'... I love that :-)

Lynette at Lynette Anderson Designs - apart from the fact that she's delightfully generous (think Noah's Ark and Stitcher's Angel) and creative, I think Felix and Hugo have just as big a following

May Britt who is Abyquilt - every post ends with 'Today's saying' and they are always positive AND she shares lots of photos and free stuff - gotta love that...

Chookyblue from Chookyblue - has to be on the faves list, great photos and I love baby cows

Catherine Baynes who is Willow Valley Store because she says nice things about my quilting and she makes me remember the 'olden days'

Karen over at Mrs Martin's Quilt Shop - always something happening AND she likes ABBA

Sue from Sue Daley Designs who creates the most beautiful things AND runs a B & B AND she's a Queenslander - 3 out of 3!

So I'm not really 'tagging' these girls, it's more like encouraging you to check them out if you haven't already done so....

that's it.... no more.... you know all there is to know ........
