The Pony is a work of art and will get lots of use in the coming years.<br /><br />I am currently conducting research into blogs that focus on sustainable living as part of my Masters at the University of New England, Australia. I am gathering information on the positive role that blogs play in inspiring people to live more sustainably.<br /><br />We are looking for people to participate in a short survey ${l://SurveyLink} (5-10minutes), link below<br />http://uneprofessions.qualtrics.com/SE/?SID=SV_1MOWwlgbGJlIyJS<br /><br />If you could help that would be greatly appreciated.<br />Regards,<br />Student Researcher, Master of Environmental Systems, Markets and Climate Change<br />University of New England<br />Email: lshashko@une.edu.auLarissahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00782035319443199788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4785279283815492632.post-51358042967127456972012-06-09T23:06:06.273+10:002012-06-09T23:06:06.273+10:00A wonderful post, I'm now wishing I lived in t...A wonderful post, I'm now wishing I lived in the Hunter Valley so I could come to a compost workshop and have my daughters' birthday parties at Purple Pear farm, a waste-free party sounds just my style. Love the little pony, how could someone take that to the dump? The outfit you sewed is gorgeous! I'd buy it. And finally I loved what you said about the relationship between mothers and daughters changing when both of you are mothers. I really relate to that since having my first baby three years ago.Barbara Goodhttp://thenewgoodlife.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4785279283815492632.post-47114290246849508522012-06-06T23:54:07.310+10:002012-06-06T23:54:07.310+10:00What great finds at the dump shop!

The question is would you want to devote the time with everything else you have on your plate? Love the pony for Evan. The fresh rolled oats must be wonderful.

I also caught site of some of your party pics over at Little Eco Footprints - I really like the thought you've put into the fine details - right down to the glass bottles with tags. Very sweet.<br /><br />Special times too with daughters and grandson visits. <br /><br />It's great to have you joining in again, have a lovely month! xxChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18204291906401193716noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4785279283815492632.post-24085955353454412952012-06-04T00:17:32.972+10:002012-06-04T00:17:32.972+10:00your such an inspiration kate, i too love that oat...your such an inspiration kate, i too love that oat roller and have never seen one. i went to a talk yesterday about worm composting, even though they give me the creeps, i need to have 'the girls' in my yard now.

I hear what you are saying about time to make things to sell - I have considered it too and always it comes back to time! Or lack of it! The little outfit is very cute and I'm sure you would sell some. <br />I think when your daughter has a child she understands her mother a whole lot more and is in some way a lot more appreciative of your effort and her upbringing. It brings you closer somehow, that sharing of sacrifice and joy. Just my thoughts ;o) xxEvihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15098163128625989839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4785279283815492632.post-29303954775234787082012-06-03T20:09:40.255+10:002012-06-03T20:09:40.255+10:00Hi Kate, this is a great post.

It really is a great idea and really shows what has been achieved over the month...you sometimes forget! The oat roller looks interesting, I didn't know they were available. Do you mind me asking where you bought yours from? Love the pony...what a find!amanda@Live Life Simplyhttp://www.livelifesimply.comnoreply@blogger.com
