It’s that time of year again… Ultimate Blog Party time!
Hello to all the party goers who might be popping in to party with the Picklebums for the first time. Welcome to the madness!
If you are new to my blog and wondering what on earth a ‘Picklebum’ is.. perhaps a quick run down is in order.
Picklebums are curious creatures who lives on the Pickle Farm, in almost rural Victoria, Australia. The first Picklebums came as a matching pair and have been nick named ‘the twinadoes’. You can read more about the Twindaoes here.
The second Picklebum is ‘Muski the Monster’ – don’t let the angelic white blond hair and blue eyes fool you, he is indeed a monster. Read about Muski here
The patriarch of the Picklebums is affectionately know as Baldy Boy…. though he doesn’t much like me blogging too much about him.
So that just leaves me.. Pickle Me Kate. I digi scrap, design blogs and like to take photos. I grow things and cook things… and oh yes.. I blog.. about almost everything.
If you wanted to find out more, you could check out my About Page… or you could read last years blog party intro…. or just browse around for a while and have a read…
If the technology and the interwebs play nice over the next few days I’ll be popping up a new Pickle dance party video… and maybe some other party goodness.. so come back soon ok!

You sound like such a fun Mom! A totally cool pickle.
Here from the UBP. Your kids are darling.
Just stopping by to say Hi and happy blogging!
I loved the post about how your son says ‘yes’. That is too funny. My little guy is 20 months old too and they sound very similar.
It is so amazing how the internet can make the world seem so small… you in Australia and me in the US.
I’m looking forward to visiting again and reading more when my kiddo isn’t pulling at my leg to come play.

Your site is so cute! Now I’m off to check out your digiscrap stuff…

cute blog! your kids look like a hoot! I remember in the 80′s they used to sell “pickled bums” in a jar.. they were pretend bums made out of fabric in the country style mason jars.. quite funny.. so that’s the image it brings up for me! lol too funny.
Great site! Think I will stay a bit and look around! Have a great weekend and happy blogging!
