EmbroideryWeekend Update
Well, that was fun. We didn't get much trip preparation done, but thanks to the Snook my birthday weekend was one to remember. It started Saturday morning with a trip to Bills in Surry Hills for breakfast. We met up with Miss Fee (and her Mystery Visitor) for scrambled eggs and coffee in the sunshine. Afterwards I headed to Glebe for my first appointment with my new stylist, Desiree at Partners Hair Workshop. She was fantastic! I'm used to salon visits taking forever, but Desiree had me out the door in under ninety minutes. (And that's including foils, cut, and blow dry!) Back at home, the Snook was preparing for my birthday barbecue... right before the heavens burst. So the festivities were all indoor. But no matter; we had Wii! Many, many games of tennis, fishing, cow racing, and boxing ensued. We also had a veritable cadre of bloggers amongst the guests, including Amy, Rob, Kenya, Bex, Helen, and Andrew. (I'd count Major too but he stopped updating.) We had salads, chicken, fish, SO. MUCH. CHEESE., chips, bread and truffle butter, and really just everything lovely. The Snook made a rich low-carb chocolate cake and Andrew countered with some decidedly high-carb (but sooo worth it!) fancy cupcakes. As you might imagine, the Snook and I spent most of Sunday just in recovery mode. We had lunch in Chinatown with his mother and sister, but otherwise I spent the day working on my cardy. The other puffy sleeve is now finished! I've moved on to the embroidery, as you can see here. I've got til Saturday to put it all together and finish it off. I think I'm actually gonna make it!

Thank you, Kris. Thank you _Very_ much! It's your fault, You make me buying Wii. Now you must contact Nintendo and ask your provision.

OK, really, Wii is great. Playing few hours now, difficult to stop :-)
