95 days to Christmas!
If you want to keep track of that deadline yourself, you can do so here.
I've recently discovered the wonderful tagua nut.
It comes from a palm tree that grows in the rainforests of South
America – Ecuador, Peru, Colombia and Brazil. It contains a liquid
that will eventually harden and looks like ivory. In fact, it is
regarded as a viable alternative to elephant ivory, and is used by
many artisans nowadays in their crafts and carvings – earning its
nickname of 'vegetable ivory' – and helping to save our precious
elephants. And because I love effalumps, I'll share this fabulous
picture from Ravi Patel:
Take a look at my Tagua nut necklace – big,
chunky, and wonderfully tactile - and now in my Etsy shop.
And what's been keeping me happy since my last
post?
There's that lovely elephant picture, for a start!
We went to see the new Bridget Jones film and it
was very enjoyable. The scene in the hospital had me in tears it was
so funny!
