I’m Back

Monday, November 30th, 2009

Sorry for the lack of posts. The past few months have been a blur.
I was totally unprepared for all the work to come my way… It’s been fantastic, and now that I’ve got my systems in place and some desperately needed help I’m back on track.
The New Year will be filled with lots of exciting things for DBI. One project is the DB Home range and on-line store. Soon to be completed and up and running. Please join our newsletter, twitter or subscribe to our blog for all the details.

Thanksgiving In The Spring!

Thursday, November 27th, 2008

It was a new tradition to my French Canadian parents when they moved to Massachusetts in the 60’s from Quebec. It’s not a holiday you can avoid if you live in close proximity to Plymouth! It soon became my favourite holiday. I love the masses of relatives and friends gathered for traditional turkey dinner, complete with pumpkin pie, the Macy’s day parade and a four-day weekend.
It all works so well in the autumn with the leaves turning vibrant orange and golds and a chill in the air.

Since living in Australia, we haven’t celebrated Thanksgiving yet.
There is something about it being springtime. The weather and colours are not quite right… And of course it’s always on a Thursday.
So maybe the new tradition for us will be a turkey dinner with a springtime table setting shared with Australian friends and family.

Happy Thanksgiving.
