Roses
My roses are out! Hooray. Today would have been a great day to grab some snaps, but some unexpected rain foiled my plans. Until I take some more, let me share a few I took on Monday. Blogtoberfest – Post 26
Beer tasting at Fed Square
Oops, I missed yesterday and my excuse will sound really lame, because it’s the same one I used for missing Saturday- we were beer tasting! Well, hubby was beer tasting while I had a lovely chat with our friend’s mum who’s over from NZ. Melbourne is such a wonderful city for ...
