real life
If you've been here before you know I'm full of grateful posts, what's happening now posts, inspired by xyz posts.
Not so much today.
Today I'm uninspired by:
:: the hit and run driver who killed my friend's cat. In front of their three year old.
:: the fact my lovely man's name begins "ad" and is therefore listed in many, many people's phones first and really you wouldn't believe the number of "bum calls" we get at two in the morning. Like this morning.
:: mountains of never ending laundry.
:: the start of school again tomorrow. Henry's excited. I have Mondayitis.
:: tempeh
:: the distance between Sydney and Frankfurt.
But that's life in real time, right?
There is, however, always a Tilly. A chirpy, funny, spirited adventurer/botanist/naturalist who's always up for some cooking of cupcakes.
A Tilly wearing red sparkly shoes.
'Cause there's no place like home.
I think we all need some shoes like that. (Particularly my Germany-based sister and I…)

Love those sparkly shoes. I have some similar but they are just red. No sparkles. I want more sparkles!

October 11, 2010 at 1:54 amAw hon, I feel the same about the distance between London and Hobart/Melbourne/Perth 🙂 some days it just really gets you down. I was in Frankfurt last week for work, I should have gone and given your sis a hug from you 🙂

PS: I’m making your bread as we speak 🙂 It was very timely you mentioned the whole iron thing as I think that’s why we’ve been tired too. Us veggies got to stick together 🙂

October 11, 2010 at 9:55 amI know. Dreadful. Although I think it was actually the parents who were more traumatised.

October 11, 2010 at 9:56 amoooh, but red shoes will do! there’s something chemical in the way they can brighten up a day.

October 11, 2010 at 9:58 amah yes, if I could just make a short work trip to Frankfurt I’d be apples. Throwing some flaxeed (linseed) into the bread really helps too!

October 17, 2010 at 4:55 pmI’ve always wanted shoes like that. Even now. By the way, tempeh is awesome. You just have to avoid the second rate stuff from the supermarket.
