amityvilleboronia: June 2010
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Also, I got a puppy. Links to this post. Sorry for the crappy photo, taken with my iPhone in poor light*. Or first gocco. Whatever. After first peeling off a large chunk of the emulsion on one screen thinking it as a special protective film I needed to remove before burning the screen and then trying to burn a screen that I had put in upside down and completely smooshing it, I had success! Anyway, next mission is a good even application of the paint to get a better print. Any suggestions? 9 Sell somethin...

amityvilleboronia: 25. Organise my sewing room properly.
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/25-organise-my-sewing-room-properly.html
25 Organise my sewing room properly. Moving house has been a great help with this one. Because I got to start off fresh! This is the purple craft room, which I hated when it was all empty. Purple can be an overpowering colour. But now all of my stuff is there, I think i might like it! My lovely craft books and magazines. My sewing machine and my green table, one of my favorite things. My TWO windows with lots and lots of sunlight. (My photography skills leave something to the imagination though). 15 Have...

amityvilleboronia: 46. Learn how to make real coffee
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/46-learn-how-to-make-real-coffee.html
46 Learn how to make real coffee. Never mind the dirty window. Just admire my tasty latte in a my pretty, pretty cup. Damien and I made the plunge and got a coffee machine in the boxing day sales that we like to affectionately call "Longhi". If you think buying a coffee machine will help you save money on the take away coffee you get every day, then you're wrong. You just drink twice as much!

amityvilleboronia: 28. Have a real garden
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/28-have-real-garden.html
28 Have a real garden. These are a few photos from my yard. Top left is the passion fruit. Vine I got for Christmas that has quadrupled in size, top right is the nicest mint that I've ever grown (very green! Bottom left is Damien's little turtle chilling out in the crazy strawberry plant that has a mind of its own and bottom right is a view of all. The parsley and mint were both totally ripped out when I planted the passion fruit. Send us some Strawbs! March 16, 2011 at 12:21 PM. 2 Learn about wines.

amityvilleboronia: 99. Get a lime tree.
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/99-get-lime-tree.html
99 Get a lime tree. I finally went out and got my lime tree in the hopes of maybe having at least a few baby limes for in spring this year for some tasty mojitos. This is a Tahitian lime, which are the most delicious one for your cocktail needs and are also good for cooking with. I got a grafted plant which basically means that they have taken a shoot from a mature lime tree and glued it onto a root system of a younger plant. This just basically means that I'll be getting limes asap. 2 Learn about wines.

amityvilleboronia: 90. Meet my neighbours.
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/90-meet-my-neighbours.html
90 Meet my neighbours. Well, after an initially terrifying meeting with my neighbors on one side I'm happy to report that this list item has gone very well! Firstly our next door neighbor on the left was actually the agent who sold us the house, so that was easy. We also kind of met the across the street neighbors when they taped a Christmas card to our rubbish bins, so I'd call that mission accomplished!

amityvilleboronia: Manliness
http://amityvilleboronia.blogspot.com/2011/03/manliness.html
Damien wants a quilt. Since I've finished my one, he's been stealing it. And that just won't do :). So, what's a good "manly" fabric? I'm thinking plaids, but suggestions would be lovely! Please nothing with John Deere on it, please! Geometrics are great. solids, stripes. even some diamond prints from hopevalley (non-florals). I really love quilts made with all solids right now. Would he like something like that? March 17, 2011 at 7:23 PM. Does it need to be really manly? March 17, 2011 at 11:13 PM.
