NZ stones

I cannot help collecting stones whenever I go on a beach - and we went on a LOT of beaches in New Zealand! Fortunately, Tim supports this habit - and our friends Kelly and Matt, who we visited towards the end of our trip, gave us this beautiful glass dish as a wedding present, which is now providing a home for all our wee pebbles (well, some of them, at least!)

(You can see evidence of my driftwood habit in the background here, too.)

Had a lovely Sunday. Cleaned the flat and cooked up a huge beef stew for dinner. That doesn't sound very exciting, but now we have a lovely clean home and happy full bellies :)
