AH! easter monday - i've farewelled jenny and freddie and sunny - they left around 8.30 for the long drive home. it's been such a great easter weekend with the house full of people, the weather cooled down and we had some sun but quite a lot of cloud, not as warm as i'd hoped but it's such a relief to have easy weather - after all the incredible heat we've had i loved it.
beijing seems a long way away after all the easter chocolate, hot cross buns and gin and tonics on the riverbank, scrabble, good meals, lots of talk and a bit of graeme norton
thrown in for good measure :0)
Now i have to get into the Art Vault to hang my show for thursday's opening.
some pics to recap the weekend:
THE BIRDS
The pelicans returned in force |
THE ENTERTAINMENT THE wentworth 'henley on darling' was on this weekend, mildura and wentworth have a big rowing regatta.
more importantly, they also have a market and a 'town' garage sale, a map of houses to travel round looking for bargains. so while jenny and freddie went on a paddle steamer cruise up the murray from mildura, sunny and i did the garage sales - lots of goodies to be found.
THE FOOD (and drink :0)
The eggs didn't last long, and the
impromptu invention of a vermouth
and blood plum juice cocktail went down a treat after the bombay sapphire ran out.
Jenny brought this beautiful
chocolate - before the
packet was opened and we cut
it up it looked
like an artwork.
Sunny took these amazing photos of the moon with my camera early this morning. |
