deird1Here's this week's batch.
Day 50:
This is the wall of a pie shop, where Mum and I stopped for lunch.
The whole place has exciting Australian-themed stuff on the walls - you can see here a saddle and an Aussie flag. Not sure how to explain to non-Aussies why a saddle would be considered to be part of an Australia theme, but believe me, it is.
I had a pie floater, which I've been craving for weeks. It's a meat pie upside down in mushy pea soup. Delicious, but very filling.
Day 51:
A quilt.
Not one I made - in fact, I haven't the slightest idea where it came from - but it tends to live on my bed, where it stops Elf from covering my sheets in fur.
Day 52:
Mystery picture!
Okay, not entirely a mystery, because I'm about to tell you. But to preserve the air of secrecy, I'll use invisi-text. Highlight to read...
****This is what happens when I make meatloaf. Actually, it shouldn't have happened - the recipe specifies that you're supposed to cover the tray in foil, and now I know why. But my foil had a slight tear in it, and all the oil in the meatloaf poured underneath and stuck to the tray. This was the result.
Isn't it pretty?****
Day 53:
Caleb, playing with animals when he should probably be going to bed.
Day 54:
This is a few doors down from my house.
There's this teeny court, of just a couple of houses, with a big grassy bit at the end. It has trees growing over the front of the court, and it always ends up looking much more secluded and mysterious than it actually is. It feels like you could walk in there and be cut off from the whole world.
Day 55:
My saxaphone, as seen from below.
I had no idea what else to take a photo of, and was trying to be arty.
Day 56:
And this is a blatant "You call that a knife? THIS is a knife."
My housemate posted a photo of her desk on her blog - and said "Yes, I know it's messy..." This about the CLEANEST DESK EVER. I'd just been thinking how tidy it was.
Anyway, I was at work at the time, so I narrowed my eyes, whipped out my camera, and decided to show the world, once and for all, what a truly messy desk looks like. Note the random tissues and stacks of paper I'll never finish reading.
Granted, it doesn't look like this all the time. Sometimes, it's messier...

Date: 2011-02-26 09:56 pm (UTC)I'll be taking a sabbatical and am hoping to spend maybe 4-6 weeks in Australia, so I'm sure there won't be a need to freak out over having to make choices, but still...
The only thing I know: I have a cousin in Tasmania whom I'll definitely visit.
As we say in German: Vorfreude ist die schönste Freude - anticipation is the greatest form of joy. \o/
