FTF with Shay

I am just sneaking in for FTF.... today I am afraid my Favourite is an oldie but a goodie for me. I even think it was a favourite this time last year too......my first guided Yoga class for 2013 with my sweet friend Helen.
Helen provides a beautiful class and even though a daily practice at home is lovely, there is nothing quite like putting yourself in someone else's hands and being guided through it.....AND great news I didn't need two mats side by side and I didn't have spillage over the edge. Lying on my mat always feels like home.
So as boring as it might be this is far and away my 'favourite'. I am off to visit SHAY to read about other favourites so why don't you come too or  better still post one of your own.
I have been doing a little more secret stitching....
Wonder what this will grow up to be and where it is going???? I am having a lot of fun with this. I do love a secret or three.
My Mum who has just left to go home :( left me the new Monica McInerney book "The House Of Memories" to read.
So I am looking forward to losing myself in this one.....great to know we have such wonderful Aussie authors.
I wish you all a great weekend. Another hot one for us as the nice reprieve we had is now history and worse for tomorrow.....so finding a cool spot is on the agenda.
Take care,
Blessings Michelle xxx

Very pretty stitching. I've never taken a yoga class, but we've had demonstrations at work. I can see why it would be your favorite.

Ahh Yoga...the pursuit of those who have at least a basic level of coordination.

Not only would I need two mats , and still be spilling over the side , I'd be the one doing all the grunting and giggling trying to achieve positions that my body hasn't been in since childhood.

But Im so glad you enjoy yoga and I bet you're really good at it.
