Patagonia

mexican chilli hot chocolates! Absolutely mouthwatering, stunning drink! We are on our second buy 9 get one free loyalty card & after having mum come & stay she's hooked too! Alex - seen here ladeling some warm creamy liquid into my 'large' cup to take away says their secret lies in it being 50% chocolate solids! We walked into the Arrowtown Village today - just for a hot chocolate before mum heads back to Dunedin. It was worth it.

Have you seen the new stuff coming out in shops @ the moment? Loving the new Urban Lily, Cherry Arte & 3 bugs stuff -just too yummy - pity I have a budget to stick to! Posted by Picasa

blenheim

We are currently in Blenheim. Have been doing some of the wineries - a work trip for Jase - we just get to go along! I'v been playing with some of the phaunt actions by Kylie Banks- my faves are phaunt magic instant & then beastly colour. Got the links from an online class at Scrapbook Outlet with Mandi Haynes. above: Katya on a walk in Waikari with Jases parents. Below - Harold the older giraffe at Orana Park, just before I met Vicki & checked out the stamping up catalogue. Jase & I joined a winery tour today - was a great way to meet some different people & to see & learn a little bit about some of the local wineries. Feel quite isolated without my home internet connection though!
