I've spent the last 11 days absent from blogland while visiting my parents in Northern NSW. My husband was in PNG for a little over a week, and as I'm not a particularly good single parent, I took my daughter to hang out with her grandparents.
Other than a few hairy moments - one involving my nearly one-year-old and the chilli above (this is the aftermath!), we enjoyed ourselves immensely. Hopefully it won't take too long for the grandparents to recover!
I very nearly finished a crocheted cardi which is so close I might even have pictures sometime this week. But that depends on whether or not I spend too long starting to catch up on the 500+ blog entries in my reader. Gulp!
One of the benefits of temporary family separation is presents! This is a bilum that I received from my husband, and given my current interest in crocheting string bags, it's particularly appropriate! The stitch detail is really interesting, and I think I'd like to find out more about how they're made. You never know, I might make one myself one day!

Welcome back ... glad to hear you've been having a nice time in good ol NSW!
I hear it's been hot up there (my family also live up that way), hope you got to a beach.
The chilli lesson....my daughter also went through this one, despite several warnings.....she now warns all & sundry about the dangers of chilli plants!
Welcome home!
So is the chilli story funny yet? Or was it that traumatic that it will never be funny?
not Never never land Glennifer perhaps???
