Bits of this and that.....

Movies instead of stitching......
we are so naughty......
I wasn't very keen on seeing this movie but I'm so glad we did.....
I could see all of us (the Tuesday girls) in it, we all loved it......


What's a movie without a choc top......


Then lunch of course....


Every now and then I find myself giggling when I think of different parts of the movie.....
Best movie I have seen in a while.....
It was the "Tuesday girls" to a tea......

Flower Garden progress.....
slow and steady background project.....


I've had to do a few pre-bowls for my tenpin bowling league so when I  do these the girls (Tuesday girls) like to join me for a bit of fun....


I went for a drive with Heather and we discovered a quirky cafe in an industrial area....
Which led to a coffee and muffin of course....

"Forking Espresso"



Well that's it, all caught up now I hope.....

Toodles......

Tuesday girls catch up post.....

Just when I thought I had caught up with my posts.....I am behind again.....
So catchup time.....
On the 7th May Teresa made this wonderful 
Key Lime Pie.....
It was yum.....



On Thursday we were off again for craft shop visiting.....
We went to "Reload" cafe for a coffee to get us started......
Here we found this terrific art on the side of the building, there was a plaque telling the story of the people in the art.....
very interesting indeed.....



Pity I didn't take a photo of the story....

"Voodoo Rabbit" was next.......
a wonderful little shop....


This is the back wall of the shop....
Fantastic isn't it ?


Through the Arcade up to the shop we found heaps of art on all  the walls.....






After a couple of other stops it was time for some naughtiness.....


My goodies from the day......


Thanks for the fun girls.....
A great day....
Toodles....
