Scavenger Hunt

1. Texture
At Wirra Wirra winery in McLaren Vale, there was a 2 story high 'wine bottle' made out of corks (see 'Hangin' in the Vale' post). I love the texture of corks and am a little sad that they are being fazed out, but in the name of better wine I guess I can accept screw-top bottles.

2. Fog
Last night in Edmonton, they held an Illuminations festival in Churchill Square. This was the finale: an acrobat was suspended high off the ground in a spinning wheel, while many fireworks burst around her. I guess this is linked to 'fog' because of all the smoke that was in the sky. Don't hate me for the pathetic connection!

3. Button
This was the first scarf I ever made. I attached the biggest button I could find on it to finish it off.


4. Beverage
Such an expressive face. I sometimes feel like I am dating an Anime character. Chad is clearly not enjoying the red wine in his plastic cup.

5. Seventies
This is a photo of a photo; my mum got married in the 70's. She had a medieval themed dress. You can't get much more 70's than that.

Thanks for stopping by!

These are such fantastic shots!! The one in Churchill is incredible. I had NO idea we have cool stuff like this going on!!! I love your list of events at the top of the page. I'm definitely interested in the Liquor Depot International Wine Fair. I'm not sure where to look into it though! I'm glad I found you & so happy to continue following you! Hope you had a great weekend & stayed warm! Brrrr xoxo

The texture shot is great, but I burst out laughing at the beverage shot! Hopefully he wasn't forced to drink too much of that wine- he obviously did NOT enjoy it!
