Thank-you Rasberry Rabbits!

A lovely surprise was waiting for me yesterday from sweet Shell and her bunniful assistants Sugie and Harrington from The Rasberry Rabbits
Thank-you for all this goodness, Lavender is one of my most favourite scents and yes that's an empty chockie wrapper, delicious Peppermint Bark, gotta find me more of that Yummo! Silly me shared the second one with my hubby.

Now don't forget Shell's 12 of Hearts BOM that starts today


and the Queensland Flood Appeal continues, see the previous post for links.
Hugs to all Queenslanders affected by the flooding, I'm thinking of you and praying you all stay safe.

1974 revisited

My beloved Queensland, or otherwise known to true blue Queenslanders as God's Country is copping an absolute drenching. I feel helpless so far away in Tasmania (second only to God's Country).
My family and friends stretch far and wide across the state and thankfully none are right in the heart of the flooding but extremely close or cut off by it.
I remember the 1974 flood and paddling around in the water aged five and I can't believe it's going to exceed that. Latest predictions are that 6500 homes will be inundated in Brisbane...Yikes! I'm following the news closely and pray that no further lives are lost.
Stay safe my fellow Queenslanders!
