Spinning Me Right ‘Round:

  • YarnderNiece’s 9th birthday. 
  • Get Hairy February - sponsor me! I’m raising money for a domestic violence charity, as well as challenging societal norms that women should shave their legs, especially in summer.
  • My little garden is going well. I planted some seeds to go with my seedlings.
  • I’ve been having a lot of green smoothies, especially first thing in the morning. I have learnt that a good trick is not to put peppery leaves in. ;-)
  • Green tip: rinse water from the tea pot can be collected to use for watering the garden (and tea leaves into the compost).
