Pour quoi frog?

Why frogs? Well, why not. These frogs are for Darcy, who has been in isolation in The Sydney Children's Hospital. If you want to follow Darcy's progress check out the journal updates here: www.caringbridge.org/visit/darcygilmour10/journal

If you want to make a frog you can find instructions at: http://www.savethefrogs.com/teachers/images/Origami-Jumping-Frog.pdf .

If frogs are beyond you, you can also give blood. Details of how available from the Australian Red Cross Blood Service.

La grenouille et la pomme de terre - part four

Potato had never met anyone like Frog before.

At first she was shocked that a frog should even dare to approach her.  But she was soon won over by his constant attentions (and flowers) and, as she drank in the sweet scent of the roses, allowed herself to dream of where this all might lead...


And that's when the doubts began to set in. 

A frog. 

Courting a potato.

Such a thing had never happened.

She tried to imagine what it would be like bringing Frog home to meet her family.


She feared the reaction of her brothers who had a reputation amongst the potatoes of being particularly anti-frog.

 When she pictured what might happen to Frog she knew she would have to break it off.
