Long weekend reading


It's Australia Day here in, you guessed it, Australia. A time of the BBQ, lamb roasts, cricket, citizenship ceremonies and a long weekend. No WINKS today, no Jo's place post just a lovely long list of 3 day weekend reading. Some are new, some are old favourites, some aren't in English. All will keep you busy with lots of design lolly. Apologies to those that have to go to work on Monday. Think of me as I'm slaving over a roast leg of lamb for my dinner guests. YUM!

Happy Aussie Day Jo (and Pia)! Hope you party hard, eat lots and enjoy your day off. (P.S. Vegemite sounds SO GROSS!!!! Is that like the Aussie version of Nutella? LOL) Now I must go check out all those blogs before I go to work.

Thanks for the Aussie Day greetings everyone! No Kim vegemite is not like Nutella. It's worse. Definitely an acquired taste as it is a yeast and vitamin B extract. We have it rubbed on our gums as babies :) Food of the gods!!
