Day |2 My Ideal Day


Oh what would my Ideal Day hold, do I dare think about it?

  • To wake early on an Autumn morning as there would be no frosts yet and the air is still warm. 
  • Taking an early morning stroll along our pristine beaches.
  • Returning home to Good coffee and a cooked breakfast of bacon, onions, mushrooms and avocado on sourdough toast with a side of maple syrup. 
  •  Leisurely sit in the garden and read for a while - I love the song of our native birds especially the laughter of a Kookaburra. 
  • I absolutely love my own company and am perfectly happy alone. Music quietly in the background. 
  • Morning Tea Time - Iced Tea and a tangy Lemon Tart  should kick start me into the day.
  • To have an outdoor studio open to the garden would be my dream, filled with light. There I would while away the day playing with paint and paper. 
  • No neighbours would an absolute necessity - I like my afternoon muzac LOUD. 
  • Late afternoon I would retire to the kitchen by way of the pottager garden with my basket to collect supplies for dinner. 
  • A crisp chilled riesling in hand, a stunning cheese board, 60's music {so we can get our groove on around the kitchen} and the twins { when they are not squabbling } cooking a gourmet dinner. 
  • Eating outside in the garden in the evening warmth and beautiful golden light. 
  • NO mozzies!
  • After dark cozy inside with the family playing a board game. 
  • Ending the day on the couch with a port and a little secret supper snack watching TV to wind down the PERFECT day. 

WOW that all sound likes a fairy tale. But what a beautiful fairytale it is and I suppose not entirely in the realm of impossible.

Well we are 2 for 2 loving this blog challenge.
Thanks again for dropping by.

Joining in with Blog-tember


Welcome to my Intro for Blog-tember a concept given birth to by Baily Jean 

Well how shall we go about this the long and sordid version
or 
the sugar coated glazed version ?

  • My name is Marie Antoinette { unfortunate i know }
  • I am a young 50ish although some days I feel an old 90ish. 
  • Married and I think we will leave it at that. 
  • Many children 6 + 3 step not to mention some surrogates along the way. Two who are still at home, my babies and twins. 
  • Soon to Grandmother 
  • Domestic Engineer { sahm }
  • I was born with a gene to try ALL and EVERY craft known to man. Hence my purse is always empty.  
  • I cannot lie I do imbibe, partake, quaff the occasional glass of bubbly to be sociable.
  • My palate runs to the Gourmet end of the food chain { wink, wink, nod, nod, } 
  • Makes friends easily and love to chat - much to my children's disgust, I will strike a conversation with anyone at any time, any place.
  • Proud Australian I love the outdoors and my nest it perched within an hour of the Beach, Snow and State Capital what more could you ask for ? 
  • I am a social butterfly and love to be out painting the town with my awesome group of friends. 
  • Shhh don't tell anyone I said this but I may have a craft hoarding problem - but I shall deny this emphatically. 
  • Beginner Hybrid scrapper 
  • Pretty game and up for most adventures.
  • I make my bed 6 out of 7 mornings. 
  • I can't stand dirty glass or coffee mug  
  • Oh and last but my no means least I am NOT a Chocolate lover - Seriously !  


Ok so I think we may have gone with the glazed version but you get the idea. Looking forward to this new blogging adventure with Baily Jean and hope you will join in. 

My goals from this are to develop a blogging habit and to share my passions with anyone interested. 

Thanks so much for popping by
