It has been a lovely sunny, winter's day in Melbourne, and I am recovering nicely now from a winter ailment, so I have enjoyed a Saturday of getting chores done quickly and early, the washing hung out to dry before heading down to meet someone at the shopping centre. After the catch up and my weekly shopping I headed off to do birthday shopping and came home with the gift, and a slow- cooker for me too. We're having self-saucing chocolate pudding tonight for dessert!
The elaborate 'congratulations' is from a retired stamp set called Well Scripted and the 'on your engagement' is from another retired set called Love & Laughter. I'll share a little story with you, don't know if you'll think its funny or not. I'm quite methodical with my stamp sets, they are all stored alphabetically, with current ones at the front of the shelves, retired behind. I knew which stamp set I needed for the 'on your engagement' subtitle but for the life of me, I couldn't find it. I must have checked those shelves at least a half dozen times. Now, you know the saying - "must have had a man's look"? I find often that if I tell my hubby what he is looking for and where it should be, he will find it when I don't - and he did!! Thank goodness, because I was beginning to wonder if in a moment of madness I had sold that stamp. That would be crazy!!!!
Have a lovely weekend
