Fabric -A-Brac ...on this Saturday in Greytown!

The Team from Destination Wairarapa

Fabric-a-brac is a fun fabric and sewing supplies market where you can shop for vintage and modern sewing and upholstery fabric, patterns, haberdashery and more. It brings the sewing community together to share stashes, stories and delight in our mutual love of textiles.
Fabric-a-brac Greytown is held on Wellington Anniversary, in conjunction with the annual Sidewalk Sale in Greytown (incredible deals on one-offs, samples, and surplus stock from locally-owned stores) so it’s a great excuse to have a trip to Wairarapa! It’s held in the Greytown Town Hall on Main St. 10am -12pm.
Fabric-a-brac is volunteer-run, and is a fundraiser for hospice – in Greytown this is Hospice Wairarapa. All profits from this event are donated to their work.

Eating over Christmas and New Year’s Resolutions to diet are in the past

If you had asked me when I was active in addiction what the meaning of Christmas was, I would have told you, the substantial amount of food available, the getting dressed up, the drinking and partying in the pubs and the nightclubs and receiving lots and lots and lots of gifts.

Eating at Christmas time was always different from the rest of the year. For most of the year I would be secretly eating but for that short week in December, I had free reign. It was that one time when everyone seemed to want to eat the way I did every single day. It was acceptable to eat chocolate for breakfast, lunch, dinner, supper and beyond.
