Expansion and other fine bullet-y things

Well, we're expanding. No, not the family (though it has been so long since last I blogged that we could almost have another child!!). We have bought this:

Not pretty and, it turns out, not quite high enough for Conrad to stand in - but it is a step in the right direction! We will be selling it at the end of the month so we can get a slightly higher vehicle *ahem*. Other cool discoveries this week:
  • rediscovering e-bay and replacing expensive but disintegrating-from-sun sheers in living room for Ikea sheers on Ebay for an amazing bargain, even with postage (the cost of one panel from Freedom - crazy);
  • today's discovery that the boring looking fish and chip shop in Alicetown has become the home of chinese dumpling specialists. $5 for 12, made right there, yummy vege ones with lashings of spring onions and little tiny pieces of vermicelli. Mmmm;
  • our business growing by the day - new regulars and excellent corporate events. Definitely need two setups;
  • lots of great feedback on our coffee - hurrah. Makes it all worthwhile;
  • happy shiny children; and
  • a teensy bit of contract work from home to help pay the bills as we grow our empire.
Glass of wine time. Night : )
