Hay season done and dusted again

Damien loves hay season!

Vasse Felix

Pulled a cork on a wine in the 'do not drink' rack tonight because Damien thinks our 'cellared' wine may be stuffed.

Turns out he chose a 10 yr old wine called Vasse Felix and it is magnificent! Shit we should put it back in the bottle for a special occasion!! So now we are trying to justify why we are drinking such a beautiful bottle of wine on a work night for no important reason.

Maybe because we are back at work and need cheering up? Maybe celebrating our 9 months overdue extension? Maybe our big bike ride tonight which nearly killed me? Maybe because Damo and I met the year it was made (he tried to convince me it was 10 years today!)? Maybe because I was born the year the winery was established?

No... we are celebrating the birth of my client's baby son FELIX last year!

Glimpses of my kitchen

The kitchen cabinets are in and the bench-tops are 5 days off. It's getting exciting! I'm moving stuff in!!

The bathroom wall being repointed by Ali. Not finished yet, but the 90 year old back wall of the original house hasn't looked so good in a very long time. It would have been a beautiful lounge room wall (my original want) but what a stunning rustic wall to stare at from the shower.

safety first!

A lovely day with Sophie, Phil, Mos and Grif. Good food, good company, a second ride for the boys on their very own new motor bike and other Flaxley farm fun. xxx
