~OPAM...... (One Project A Month)~

2 small offerings for OPAM this month

2 Tea Towels.......or as I like to call them, Stitching Towels

(Pattern by Anni Downs of Hatched and Patched......part of Angel Story)

A Stitching Towel is a towel you take with you when you are off to do stitching

You lay the towel out on the table in front of you and your work, threads etc sit on it rather than the table

Pretty neat I think!!!

Thank You Sweet Peg and Partner in Crime Kris for running OPAM again this year!!!

My 500th post giveaway is still on

~A Welcome Home Dinner....and a Book Win~

Phew, here we are into February and just starting to get back into Blogland....

When I came back from Paris and Latvija Hubby and JoJo offered to take me out for dinner to celebrate.......Well that was back in October and the dinner happened in January lol

I didn't take any photos of the dinner but I did afterwards

We went to a local place Starfish Deli and really enjoyed the views

Starfish deli is situated on the pristine waters of the Clyde River

Last weekend we had some Foie gras de canard entier that I brought home from Paris

I couldn't resist purchasing this on the banks of the Seine River at a Friday market

I had never had any before and probably never will again

Oh so delicious together with some Brillat Savarin Affine Fromage......a triple cream cheese from France .......oh so very very creamy

Imported by Calendar Cheese Company, Port Melbourne.

Also just before I went away I was lucky enough to win The Chocolate Promise and The Tea Chest by Josephine Moon.  The Chocolate Promise is set in Paris and Provence......2 places I was lucky enough to go to......

Thank You Josephine

I've realised this is my 500th post so I think a little giveaway is in order
I'll be back soon with that

One more day till the weekend woo hoo
Enjoy.......I think I'll be going down to the beach as it's been so hot!!!

Have a good one......Dzintra xo
