If the sock fits...clash the colours and the patterns!

This blog celebrated its first anniversary back in July.  To celebrate, I gave away the gifts - a pair of my handknitted socks for one reader in Australia and one overseas reader.  

Rose Wintergreen wrote and performed a whole song and was the worthy winner inside Australia.  She  sent me a photo of her wearing the socks.  I just loved all the colours and patterns together so much that I asked her permission to share the photo with you.  I'm pleased she said yes!


Great style!  Great socks!

If you missed Rose's song, you can find it over here.

And you can find out more about Rose over here.

Winners - 2 Days in New York

The chance to win tickets to see "2 Days in New York", Julie Delphy's new film certainly generated a lot of interest.  Thanks everyone who entered and shared your ideas of where you'd most like to spend two days.

Hopscotch Films generously provided me with three double passes to give away, plus one for me to use.  A friend shared her pass to see the film with me the other day, so I don't need the extra pass - I now have four to give to divacultura readers.

I loved reading your contributions and have chosen four winners on the basis of originality and creativity.  Congratulations to:


  • Tania C who would like to spend her two days visiting the afterlife
  • lukeod who wrote a little rhyme identifying Budapest as his destination of choice
  • Cazbar would like to go to Antarctica and thinks two days might be all she could take
  • Sue R says two days in a five star hotel being pampered like a Queen would suit her just fine!
I can't make any of those dreams come true, but I can send you some movie tickets.  Winners will need to contact me via the email link on my profile page with your mailing address so that I can send you your tickets.

You can review all the entries in the comments at the end of this post.

Enjoy the film and don't forget to stop by and let us know what you thought.  If you weren't a winner this time, stay tuned!  Or go make your two day wish actually happen!

If I could spend two days anywhere, I'd love to go to Easter Island.  It would probably take me two days to get there, but the trip would be worth it!

Thank you Hopscotch Films!
