Blockheads!
Us Anscombe girls (and Paulee when he is home!) are fanatical Blockheads!
So imagine our excitement when we visited THE BLOCK! The real life current reno-apartment block in South Melbs!
Check out the awesome 'green walls' - It is somewhat strange to be star-struck over a building!

At the time I had suggested maybe they make some Rose water. In the boxes I found this... Rosemary water! Just love it!

Now you see it... now you don't!
What a difference ten minutes can make...
And the latest letter from the Tooth Fairy read: -
PIPPAAAAAAA!
How quickly did that tooth pop out! I was talking with Victoria (special tooth
fairy ambassador for the best dentist in the Universe, Dr Victor) and she
mentioned you had a wobbly one! She also
told me how proud I should be of you because you enjoyed the dentist so
much. I feel so happy right now!
I love your new house! And your room is so
awesome. Your house in Sydney was nice
but I prefer this one – it’s so close to the sea.
I love dolphins, you see, so I love being close to the ocean.
Now, you asked me about my brothers and sisters… I have 1 sister
called Tilly and 9 brothers! We have
much bigger families in Fairyland, don’t you think! My brothers names are Rupert, Dougal, Fergal,
Calum, Jasper, Tarquin, Charliebob, Llewelyn and Rory – Rory was just born at Christmas
time xxxx
As always, I have taken your tooth’s magic and strength
with me. Do make a wish – remember it will only
come true if you carry happiness and kind words in your heart everyday.
Remember… if you feel that little tickle on your cheek while you are sleeping – that’s the flitter
flutter of my wings as I collect your tooth!
See you super-soon
Your fairy-friend,
Maxilla xxxx

PaD #5 enrivonment
PaD = Photo a Day! yeah... lazy!
Today I had the joy of volunteering at the girls' school and joining a working bee tending to the Kitchen Garden - lots of barrowing and raking of mulch, whilst the Environment Team (kids including Megan xx) weeded and chatted!
Here's my FMS photo for today, chosen because my daughter planted it!
And here are a few other pics from the Enviro Warriors!

FMS Photo A Day #1-4
Here are my first ramblings into the world of taking a photo a day....
#1 B is for... BIG! - Here is Paul's Veggie Calzone at Groove Train... it's on a huge dinner plate!
#4 after dark - I just love this little Sun Jar which sadly only really comes into her own in Winter when the sun goes down early enough for the kids to see her glow
Pretty proud of myself for going a whole four days! I wonder how long it will continue ;o)

FMS Photo A Day June
OK! Here are the deets! Gorgeous Fat Mum Slim sets some daily 'prompts' to encourage us (the participants) to take time to think / look / breathe ... that's my interpretation anyway!
Here's the list for this month....
