Red Back

Yesterday I killed my first Red Back spider. Brrr. It was hiding in the garage. I showed the boys and then  swatted it with the stick of a fishing net. Will post a picture soon. The boys were very impressed and drew lots of red back spiders that afternoon, then stamping on the picture and shouting:"we need to go to hospital!"
Last night I was supposed to go out to the cinema with Katja and Simone and we did go, but never got to see a film. The cinema looks promising, one of those art house theatres. But we had 45 minutes to kill before the film so we went to this Tapas Bar called Kitch. It was so nice there, we never left. You sit outside in a garden with a huge frangipani tree. They are pretty (we have one in our garden). I felt really young and trendy in there and we just had a really nice chat.
This morning we went to the beach, even though it was windy. We meet Blair and some of his friends there. Jamie really enjoyed the big waves! The afternoon we just potted around the house and this evening Jamie and I spent hours making this giant Blue Ringed Octopus Cake for Willem's birthday party tomorrow. We will have his party in a park not far from here. The cake is a surprise. He is fascinated by these dangerous creatures and we hope he will be happy to get a Blue ringed octopus cake. Last year he wanted a Bat cake..12 children and their parents are coming. We have lots of sausages to sizzle!
