New Zealand Tui, native to New Zealand. Seen here in one of its favourite places the Kowhai tree.
As the title suggests my latest attempt at being awarded the title of domestic goddess has failed, and it has failed spectacularly. But as we washed down blackened berries with strong caffeine this page has been steered in to a logical format. Welcome to my new look blog.
I would like to share a few of the images that have been included in previous posts. I hope you enjoy these glimpses of New Zealand through the eyes of some of my talented friends.
If you have been following my blog you will know a friend has recently been diagnosed with bone cancer. I am happy to say that he is in good spirits and an auction was held yesterday. It has raised considerable funds towards his treatment. Great to see so many generous people donating and bidding. Mike is a wonderful man, and for another three weeks we will continue to donate proceeds from The Quilt, Unravelled to his on-going treatment..
