Sunday 2nd August 2009

We went to the cute antiques sop in Brimscombe.

Saw lots of cool, retro stuff...including a

Sewing Machine!

I have decided I want to make a QUILT!

I have started taking photos of all my cute stationary and popping them on Flickr...

my user name is

"Popping Candy"!

Went to Dad's for dinner.

Salmon, and cake for pudding.

...Lemon!

Saturday 1st September 2009

So, today is a special day.

Today is the start of my new journal!

Well, we went to the Farmers' Market, and got lots of yummy food.

Phil ate four doughnuts!

We have both been a little bit poorly...GRRRR!

So, a lazy day filled with food and tele...

...and sleepiness!

Who are you?

So, this is me!

Menu for the this year...

Imagine your motto!

So, here I have space for seventeen promises to myself.

Now I have no excuse not to do these things!

Tick boxes are, of course, essential...progress is the key.

On my list so far...

Write in my diary...everyday!

Go camping...in nice places!

Learn how to quilt.

Make jam...yummy jam!

Go on a photography course.

By 31st July I WILL have seventeen ticked boxes!

Welcome to the Cafe Melang...

Hop out of the taxi and arrive on the doorstop of Cafe Melang!

Included with this journal were some index tabs, and although slightly flimsy, they are pretty useful!

Across the top I have:

• Monthly
• Weekly
• Free Note

Down the side I have:

• To Do
• Shopping
• Etc
• Address
• Movie
• Music
• Book
• Travel

As an afterthought, I added tiny month index tabs, although from a different sticker set, they are very fitting, and a perfect colour match!

Let me introduce you...

Let me introduce you to my new journal...! Imported from Korea, my Cafe Melang journal is simply adorable. The illustrations give me the giggles, and so, writing in here is a doddle. I don't want to write a masterpiece, I just need somewhere to log my daily going's on, my thoughts, my musings and my ambitions.
