this is a weekend with
rain
waiting
and wheels
a weekend
that rejoices in a hot cup of chai
…or three
a weekend where arguments are refereed,
and ensuing hugs compulsory
a weekend where plans were made
and then rained upon
but the oven runs hot
and bellies are filled
and finally
there is a snatched moment to think,
plan and ignite a few creative brain cells
…ready to start the week again
**************
what did you get up to this weekend?
(and a big thank you for everyone’s lovely birthday wishes from my last post)
Gorgeous photos! Please tell me photo #2 is not the oldest Monkey — surely not? The indoor plants are sitting outside in the rain and inside I’m oven drying chickpeas for snacks. Rain on the roof and good smells — perfect weekend.

It is, it is Rose. Even as I posted it, I thought jeez, he looks big in there, (now how did that happen??)
Rain on the roof and good smells is always a good weekend. xx

I was thinking just the same! Happy belated birthday Brydie. I bet that tart tasted amazing. I went for my first surf since Thea’s birth this morning. Salt water therapy – just what my body and mind needed! x

Alison that must have been amazing. Sea therapy is ALWAYS the bees knees, (especially first ones after bubbas are born!)

It has been a rather miserable weekend in Sydney. It just hasn’t stopped raining and it’s been so cold. I’m surrounded by piles of wet washing and I just know I need to get to the supermarket but I just don’t want to get out into the rain again. I love how you have kept your oven going all weekend. Very comforting in weather like this xx

It’s certainly been a fling back to winter hasn’t it…(which I do rather like!)

It’s burning up over here in Perth B 🙂 Rain sounds lovely. I’ve had my oven going most of today too and am recuperating from the heat in a cool room now! I have some biscuits and roast vegetables to show for it though, so all is well.

I think it was about 16C all weekend Kari so the idea of it being hot seems miles off. Saying that in good Sydney style it will probably be 30plus by the end of the week 🙂

I had a lovely weekend. Lunch with friends on Saturday, talking about cookery classes with the owner of a local Vietnamese shop in the afternoon and a bottle of wine in the evening with my girl.
I hope you had a good one too.

Beautiful photos. I can’t remember what we did on the weekend… I hear that’s a god cure for hiccups: to try and remember what you had for breakfast the day before or what you did on the weekend…
Happy belated birthday. Xx
