(oh red dot! how we miss your trashy bargains!)
well it's been and gone in australia but i shall wave my aussie, aussie, aussie flag today and think of sitting on the perth foreshore with a box of jatz and beetroot dip, waiting for the fireworks to begin!
if i wasn't feeling so gross, i would make cheesymite scrolls and a pavlova to celebrate. i will settle for vegemite on toast instead.
i'm braving CHA today. wish me luck, i need it. i hope they have many, many bathrooms! i haven't made my 52Q tag yet but i'll post the question anyway for you eager beavers and be back with mine later. have a good day!
May you find a toilet when in need! Have fun at CHA, and thanks for posting Q4 -- I caught up, doing the first 3 last Tuesday, between peeking at the new president all day! You're making Mondays more exciting! Thanks Emily!!

I was surprised this year by the amount of Aussie love around. I wish I got a picture but on a street near us I saw about 8 cars all lined up with an Aussie flag on each side of every one of those cars. It looked great!

Happy Australia Day and congrats on the pregnancy!!! Hope you feel better soon - I survived on vegemite toast too when I had my twins as it was the only thing I could keep down :)

HI, Longtime lurker here. I have an Aussie friend who sent me a jar of that vegemite stuff. What in the heck should I do with it!? It tastes like a bullion cube! *L* And does it spoil?
Anyway congrats on the baby and love your blog!

Happy Happy belated Aussies Day. It a nice reminder that we make 'em best Down Under. Takes alot more than a few (15) thousand miles to make us forget the homeland.
Cheers to you and yours and I want to hear the echo:
AUSSIE AUSSIE AUSSIE OI OI OI
