My Place & Yours: What’s on your fridge.

Well, not a whole lot compared to what it used to be. Our garbage bin roster, the marrickville council bins calendar, a photo of him, a photo of me, a takeaway menu or three, some recipes and a bottle opener. Exciting stuff.

Noticing.

Borrowing a theme running through Kootoyoo recently: noticing. Lung cancer is in vogue. Dogs can be taller than me. There should be more parties marked with balloons. Sometimes Jarod needs to move a bit quicker (but he’s still pretty awesome for coming on kitty walks though).

The Dome of Doom.

At the end of last week managed to win a Dark Chocolate & Ginger Mousse Dome from Brasserie Bread. Yay for commenting on blogs! Of course, it didn’t take me too long to head down and claim my prize.
