Welcoming ME!!!!!!!!!! :)

As the latest edition to The Story Tree, I would just like to introduce my self...
Im 15 and go to Boonah High. My best subject would be Drama. In my spare time I play guitar, bass, and learning piano. I also enjoy music, movies, chilling out with friends, and working at The Story Tree (extra merit points?).

When I leave school I'd like to study creative arts. But for now Im happy hanging out at The Story Tree every Saturday.

So now you know a little about me, swing by The Story Tree and have a coffee.

So they say it comes in three's??

So here I am waiting waiting waiting... I've been having a bad run with stuff falling you see.

It all started yesterday afternoon when I was getting ready to close the shop. As Susie had just made a beautiful Toblerone Cheesecake, I wanted to make sure presentation was at its best. I carefully put the cake on the counter and turned to wash the cake display plate, when right next to me I see the cake fall, UPSIDE DOWN... SPLAT. And that was it... It happened too quickly for me to react, It's like I just had to watch it happen!

So after trying to clean something that perhaps didn't necessarily need to be cleaned, resulted in extra cleaning time I have kind of, a little bit, come to the conclussion "Next time just carry on with life and don't worry about the smudges".

THEN TODAY "carrying on with life", was making a cappuccino and as I went to sprinkle the chocolate on top, the hole flippin lid fell in the coffee and mountains of chocolate! It was like one part of me was completly devastated, like why now? Why am I now one of those clumsey people that this sort of stuff happens to all the time?? ... And the other part were saying sarcasticly "would you like some coffee with that?". So now I'm kind of playing the waiting game, what's going to happen next I wonder?? So while I'm wondering I'm also unpacking new stock with the greatest of care, and thought that the readers of this blog may like to know we are now stocking "Made by White" products.

Beautiful, beautiful designs of necklaces, brooches, earings and boby pins. The products are very girlie. Bringing back memories of some of my own childhood.... I've included some pictures of the day for your viewing pleasure.

So wish me luck on my adventure of the third and hopefully last fall, Ann-Marie

Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey

"Late on a hot summer night at the tail-end of 1965, Charlie Bucktin, a precocious and bookish boy of thirteen, is startled by an urgent knock on the window of his sleepout.
His visitor is Jasper Jones, an outcast in the mining town of Corrigan. Rebellious, mixed-race and solitary, Jasper is a distant figure of danger and intrigue for Charlie.
So when Jasper begs for his help, Charlie steals into the night by his side, terrified but desperate to impress.
Jasper takes him through town to his secret glade in the bush, and it's here that Charlie bears witness to Jasper's horrible discovery."
