What has been your highlight today, no matter how big or small? Come share 🫶

Gorgeous pics again! @heartathome We have been spolit. Enjoy your time with friends and your sister. Hearing you about Sydney!.I lived there as a kid, but am mostly a Melbourne girl, but still find the traffic frightening. Safe travels.

@theirishaussiwe ... Glad your daughter is doing well. I am half an Irish Aussie and half a hausfrau! lol aka housewife in Dutch! Took me a bit to get your name too. lol @TAB

@Chasingsunsets @ENKELI

@Taali Love community gardens and those book share cupboards ....

My 2 gorgeous cats are gathering and listening to my son sing and play piano at the other end of the house. They all love music.

Hi @Appleblossom yes I hadn't ever seen one before. It's really great , it seems to give a sense of community without the baggage of social interaction 😀

I know that makes me sound weird. But it's the way I am, unfortunately 😕

Taali 💜

@heartathome gee i have missed these .... thank you beautiful. have a great time in sydney.xxx

I'm re-reading Buddhish by Salguero this time with my post it notes on hand.

I found that the historical information messed up the message. @SmilingGecko

Taali 💜

@Chasingsunsets definitely will keep you updated re the lavender as well. It's a bit wet outside today and Gypsy is laying on her lambswool rug by my feet.

I'll be sure to post some photos of her tomorrow!

@heartathome once again, gorgeous shots! Safe travels to Sydney on Friday xo

@Appleblossom same here with the Irish roots. Apparently we come from the kings of Ireland. The Red Hand of Ulster is on the family crest -

Two rival leaders raced in boats to claim Ulster. The rule was that whoever touched the shore first won. One leader saw he would lose, so he cut off his own hand and threw it onto the beach. His bloody hand touched the land first, and he won the territory. This leader was of my tribe.

I love how you also have Dutch heritage, what an interesting combination!

Much more interesting than my roots, all from the UK with some Viking thrown in for good measure.

Just hugs Bellissima @ENKELI I doubt we were from royalty! lol Though I knew a guy who lived around the corner who was. but cant remember his details. He ended up working as an Immigration Lawyer/Judge.

Cos dad died young, I did not get much Irish music or high-brow Aussie culture (lol thats an oxymoron), when I was young. Caught up on Irish and Aussie culture through uni and research. Met all the lowbrow Aussies... and migrants from all over ... ooops! Thats how Apple rolled.

However, the Celtic harp lady texted me this morning. Looking forward to doing music with her on the weekend. We are doing a baroque poprock song.... suits me to a T!

@Appleblossom Baroque music, probably the most beautiful of all styles in my opinion.

How awesome that you can play with a Celtic harpist!

Lol high-brow Aussies being an oxymoron, so true!! Even the upper echelon are bogans these days! 😆

My mum was one of those real ladies (still is really!) who enjoyed being married to a Lieutenant then Captain in the army as she got to attend their posh dinners in the officers' mess. My aunt (mums' middle sister) told me mum was a "prissy little thing" when she was in her late teens.

It seems to have died out with her generation, but then again her youngest sister was one of the trashiest women I know!
