I've got a lovely bunch of coconuts...

So I've started doing a video by Jillian Michaels (it's called ripped in 30 check it out on her website!) and it comes with an eating plan. Not exciting except for mention of COCONUT YOGHURT!?!?!?!!!!!

Those who know me know that I've done a lot of dietary adjustments during the year and where I stand now is with a strictly gluten free diet and occasional dairy. I have to be honest and I don't think dairy really still sits that well with me so I still try to avoid it.

Now can you understand the excitement at finding coconut yoghurt?

But of course my search led me to one website Coyo Yoghurt and alas they do not stock anywhere in Perth :o( Massive sad face!

Now to start my search on how to make coconut yoghurt....

Silly cats

I had always thought the cats didn't really like each other. Everyone always said cats are independent creatures.

Maybe it's the cold weather then? But I've caught them on a couple of occasions unusually close to each other....

So funny! Silly cats.

How not to paint the front room...

I have spent a great deal of the last week painting the front room!

It started as a "I will just use the left over paint I have and brighten up the front room" to, painting the whole front room then running out of paint :o(

On the upside it looks a lot brighter. It was a sandy yellow - brown colour and now neutral and light. So now I need to buy a some more paint and it will be done and look fantastic - I hope!

I have done some sewing - making a hoodie for my husband at the moment so will show you how it progressed to the final product soon!

Excitingly too - the first skirt I made for Red Dusk has gone to a new home! How awesome is that?!?! I can't get over it, I know stupid right - but just that someone would want something I've made. It makes me feel very proud.

I also got to witness the skirt in a fashion parade at the recent Red Dusk launch at the Voodoo Lounge.

Here is a photo kindly passed on by David Chong of me working on the Red Dusk stall!

Will blog soon with more sewing projects that I have been doing. Including the fifties inspired wool felt skirt.

New adventures with amazing people!

Until a couple of weeks ago I was unaware that the "poodle skirt" and the circle skirt were designed in the fifties!

So who rekindled the interest in this fabulous feminine creation? The gorgeous proprietor of Red Dusk Designs Jolieske Loojses!

Together we are embarking on an adventure in skirt making....so I will post more as the adventure develops. Exciting!!!
