Un grandissimo ciao da Italia!
Yes, I’m in Italy this weekend, in the north and in my beloved Trentino which you really should check out sometime. I shall be eating risotto and osso buchi with polenta and drinking Marzemino and Pinot Nero, trust me I’m going to have fun but once back from this short weekender I dive straight back into school preparations – did you see Caroline Job’s excellent post this week on Lunch box ideas, bookmark it for those days you need inspiration.
A brand new month coming up with lots of great ideas buzzing around, have you found some new inspiration for the autumn? What are your plans? I am going to try my very best to complete my eBook. Now time is always against me but if I dedicate 1 hour a day I should get somewhere. That’s my plan anyway. Are you setting yourself any goals?
Don’t forget Ask Geekmummy this week, Ruth is here and ready to answer all your tech problems big and small, shoot her a note if you’re desperate or just think about what you’d like to do this month to better your blog and ask her in a comment.
