First of all...Welcome to my new followers..."4 in the herd" and "duchess declutter" and Vic"....thank-you for reading my blog.
Since finding this amazing blog world back in February this year..I have come to meet some very friendly people...and all sharing their knowledge too, which is fantastic....Not only do we get to hear what works but what doesn't work or hasn't worked in the past....I love reading blogs, but it takes up so much time...I find myself becoming distracted easily. Being part of the blogging world opens up a whole world of possibilities for anyone who wants to take them on. But you must discipline yourself to how long you spend blog surfing.
Back to my mail......Today, I received in the mail...from Sherrie at Simpleliving two lovely handmade enviro bags. Sherrie posted a give-away to celebrate her blog's 1st anniversary...which I am pleased to say; I won!
Sherrie also sells these bags on her blog...she has an amazing gift for sewing, with her French seams and perfectly straight sewing; displaying just some of her natural talents.
I highly recommend you check out Simpleliving......it is a fantastic blog. While you're there, buy an enviro bag...they are affordable, they help the planet, and most of all, they are beautifully hand crafted by a lovely lady.
I also received in the mail today, a fresh batch of Milk Kefir Grains..and a fresh batch of Water or Sugar Kefir Grains from Lisa at Sewing the Seeds of Change. Lisa writes about her Kefir and I am very thankful for her sending me some to try. That will need to be another post though..(coming soon).
Lisa's blog is fantastic as well. Check out her post about making Nut Milk and a yummy looking recipe for pickled onions..but like Sherrie, Lisa has loads of interesting posts on her blog....

Oh thank goodness they arrived in one piece...phew. I was a tad worried I'd be the cause of a whole load of mail being contaminated LOL. Fingers crossed they spring to life for you!
ReplyDeleteI'll be doing a post soon about about my experiments with fruit flavoured kefir. That should help get you off the fizzy drinks.
Narelle, thanks so much for linking to my blog :}

Lisa: I've got bubbles ..I can't believe how quickly they ferment...and I get to have a different flavour each time I brew it.
ReplyDeleteSherrie: The bags are so beautiful...your more than welcome for the link...Thanks for letting my readers know the link for buying them. They should prove a very popular product.
