  • In freefall

    Our worldly possessions are falling out of our lives. Piece by piece. Photographed. Bid on. Sold. Packed. Walked to the post office. Bit by bit. I’ve been falling out of my body too a bit of late. Which means I need to go for more walks on the beach. I’ve made a point of not…

  • Today it’s raining

    It was good last week. As I said, some shop money came in. November and December worth from two shops, which of course afforded me a trip or two to Linnet. Today I am feeling so so drained. Today I will curl up on the (linen) sofa, drink chai spice tea and let my pisces…

  • Lovely NZ improvements

    Today I finally got around to creating the new Lovely NZ homepage – which lists all updates. So people no longer have to trawl through each site, hoping for updates (when there probably haven’t been any). Now it’s easy to see all one the one page – and I even updated each and every one…

  • Note to self

    Must go here.

  • Small things

    Following my dream the other night about running away to the Amazon to stop illegal logging I happened upon a rather relevant article in the Guardian. For Blog action day I just thought I’d let you know my little piece I do for the environment – and it is small but it does add up…

  • Happy birthday little blog

    Well this little blog is one year old today. It started over at Blogger and moved here at the end of May. My first ever comment was from Juju (yay – thanks Juju) and then four months later I got my next comment! Hooray for persistence eh 🙂 I met Juju in London when I…

Your rock star name (first pet & current car) Bodha Golf 2.Your gangsta name (fav ice cream flavor, favorite cookie) Honee Lavendah Flohrenteen 3. Your Fly Guy / Girl name (first initial of first name, first three letters of your last name) Cfra 4. Your…

  • Rain: favourite weather

    Today is my favourite weather. It’s rainy outside. My other types of favourite weather are: Cold and still with a blue sky and frost on a Winter morning Heavy heavy rain after it’s been hot and humid Crisp Autumn mornings with rich yellow light Evening sun on the beach just when the sand has cooled…

  • Babies and coffee / dare digital

    This morning we’re off to babies and coffee with the remaining few of us from ante natal classes who have kept in touch. So for the occasion I am donning my, sorry to say, relatively new, Converse. Purchased in Carnaby Street when I was working at dare, so around January 2006. Gosh that’s only just…

  • Faeries / fashion

    It was a slight bugger my two best photos of the day are vertical. This one is of Astrid’s pohutukawa faerie – a lovely gift from Sandii and Jared and Mercedes. It’s very lovely indeed. And in the shower I was thinking about my daily photography ritual and concluded I may photograph my shoes, each…

  • Miu Mius from Bath

    Today I have chosen my miu miu heels. Bought in Bath when Ben Seymour and I spent a mad weekend there one Winter. We went there in, 2002(?) I would say, or was it 2001? These are probably my favouritest heels. Their heels are high, the leather cracked and distressed. On purpose. Some people don’t…
