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.

Birthday frogs

Someone not entirely unconnected with this blog had a birthday the other week.
(No - not Darcy. His birthday is in May).

And what better way to way to mark an anniversary than with cake?
 Frog cake.


It was delicious. 
(The morning after the night before)

A good birthday also requires presents. 
Look closely and you'll see that next to my beautiful birthday scarf I'm wearing a birthday brooch.
An origami silk frog, handmade by my gorgeous niece Rosemary.

And my very own knitted plague frog.

Frogs - the gifts that keep on giving.

With thanks to the Gilmours for the lovely scarf and the Irvines for the lovely cake and frog-ware.
