Irene wanted me to write a blog, but I thought I'd try this for a year instead.
Years later, in 2011, I realize that the above no longer makes sense, since I have stopped photographing breakfast and instead occasionally put down random thoughts. These days I photograph our granddaughter's lovely face, paint for fun, knit and teach knitting at an after-school program for girls, and read. Life is good, if a bit slow, but then, so am I.
Australians are just like Americans that way, they are never just plain Australian, but always something completely different. Even I can't claim Pure Dutchness with two foreign ancestors a couple of hundred years ago.

The Book Thief is really good! The author is Australian, but his parents were from Germany.
