To Market, To Market…

I had been looking forward to a wee little market a little bit out of town all week – it sounded like just my bag, you see, unlike our local market, so yesterday I set off, funky Punky in tow, and had a lovely time…

It was exactly what I’d hoped for, a friendly little eclectic market with friendly eclectic people. Miss Punk made some instant friends & spent an age jump, jump, jumping about on the air castle. (Side note; do you know, that here, in Victoria, the locals say “Cassel”? I find this as fascinating as I do irritating…)

Aren’t these art dolls just beautiful? Punky picked out the one with the flower, but as we were leaving I rushed back to get the gorgeous pair, I would have regretted it if I hadn’t. Love. LOVE! They are now happily situated on what is fast becoming ‘the handmade goodness’ side of Punk’s mantle.

  2. Hubby and I absconded without the kids for 24 hours to eat adult food, shop adult shopping, drink coffee, talk adult talk, sleep in (as adults are prone to do) Now I might have jsut swapped it all for an hour at that market...but shhhh! Don't tell hubby that ;) Oh, and before anyone reports us, we did leave the kiddies under grandparent (if not adult) supervision.

  6. If it helps inspire any confidence in Victoria at all, I say Cah-sull for Castle. Although I've been laughed at by UKers who tell me that THEY say Cassle. So I'm very torn and confused here...

    Punky is looking delightfully gorgeous as usual. xo

  7. We had a great weekend: fitted in some knitting and some gardening and took the kids up to school to practice their bike riding and the four year old did a fantastic job when we took his training wheels off, so much so that they don't need to go back on and he rode all the way home as well!! Glad you had a good weekend, we all need them :-)
