Saturday I went to go the Chattswood Organic Growers Market to get some market fresh fruit and veg. (How domestic of me!). It was such a disapointment through. There were only 4 stalls in total - one was a sausage sizzle, one was take away coffee, one was trash and treasure - which leaves just ONE fruit and veg. Its wasn't cheap, there wasn't much of it, and it wasn't great quality. Needless to say I wont be going back there again.
So after that fiddling about had intended to hire bikes and ride around and explore Sydney's Olympic Park - but between getting ready, and deciding which inappropriate outfit I should wear - it was getting late and we ended up at the Longueville Hotel in Lane Cove.
Some of you might remember that we were quite taken by Lane Cove when we first moved to Sydney - so much so we almost moved there! Strangely though - we haven't been back since actually moving! It was a great afternoon sitting outside in the Garden Terrace - I could have sat there all afternoon sipping wine. However Murray (probably wisely) suggested we go home.
On the way home though I reminded him that I wanted to go to Bunnings to get some herbs to make a herb garden! And so we had a very domesticated afternoon planting our little babies!
We now have Spring Onions, 2 different types of Parsley (so send me your parsley ideas - I've hardly ever used it!), Corriander, Chives, Basil and Thyme. I can't wait till they grow - IF they grow - I dont have a great track record with keeping things alive. I figure that Boston is still alive - perhaps I'm ready to move onto something that doesn't meow painfully when its hungry.
Speaking of Boston - here he is on the beanbag helping me with some reading for work.
Had a fantastic day today also - went out to DFO in Sydney for the first time. Its just like all the DFO's in Melbourne. I was very good though and didn't spend up. Though there were lots of very sexy shoes I could have gone crazy with. Will save my pennies and return though!

Gotta love Murray's grin! So does that mean you now have greenbabies to go with your furbaby?
