The random number generator (apparently these were truly random numbers, not like some random numbers, according to the website) picked Nuttnbunny, which makes me smile because she was the author of the first comment I ever had. I think maybe less with the randomness, more with the fate. Thanks to all who left a comment- it means alot, especially as the stat reader tells me there were roughly 30 people visiting on both days. (Who are you all???!!!!)
Mum is treating me to a night in Wellington with her when she goes up for her course next tuesday. (She is studying for her Masters and I am very proud of her.) Consequently I need a hat to wear because it is notoriously windy in Wellington and the wind gives me earache. So I am knitting a hat with the last of my wool from Ester. I have about 3 decrease rounds to go, and suspect I will run out of wool with just a few stitches to go.
Doesn’t it look like a yummy fuzzy raspberry? (We will be staying in the city centre, and would love the addresses of any “must see’s” that you NZ folk know of- thanks!)
I am a rather impatient person, and because only the lettuce has germinated thus far (lettuce, not oregano, I read my plan wrong) I had a wee dig around to see what’s going on. Turns out the other seeds are germinating, justĀ a little behind. Who would’ve thought? Also the lovingly weeded strawberries have their first wee flowers opening…yay! I just don’t know if it’s warm enough for the bees we need to pollinate them, though the sun is streaming in over my shoulder and I got a whole load of jeans dry today, the spring change is definately here, it’s so lovely!

Hi, delurking here just to let you know that I’m one of those thirty people
Love your blog-have you on my feeds.
Lucky you with spring just starting! here on the other side of the world we’re heading into Autumn (I’m in Ireland). Hope you get a better summer than we had here.
Lovely work on the raspberry hat ;), can’t wait to see it finished.
Enjoy your trip
