I need you to NAME THAT DALEK!

Hi guys!

How's things with you guys?

I'm doing great. My grandparents arrived on Tuesday and we've been having a great time visiting with them so far. The first real summer rain also arrived this week. I'm really glad it came, it was so hot!

A while back I decided I want to make a Dalek I know they're supposed to be all scary but I think they are really cute. My mom taught me to crochet a year ago and I discovered the art of amigaromi (I apologize if I misspelled that). Basically its the art of making tiny crochet creatures (toys).
Anyway... I tried to make it but, it was to hard as first. Then a few days back I decided to try again. It worked!

I know the picture looks creepy. I was playing on my picture editing program.

I really enjoyed making him.

So the real point of this blogpost is to ask you guys to give him a name. I want to make a few adventures, and he needs a nice name to do so.
I made one with my cat, kitty. My mom said I should put it here for you guys to see, so here it is.
I apologize that it was filmed in portrait, I know how much it irritates some people.
Also for all the loudness. :) I need to practice my dalek voice.


Have a great day!

There's this new store in town, it looks somewhat out of place.

Hellooooooo!!!

Ok. I haven't watched the Day of the Doctor yet. But I have it so I'll watch it soon. Probably by the end of the week.

What I'm really writing this post for is..... Mzuzu has a new grocery store!!!!
SHOPRITE opened last Friday and we got to go today. Wow. That was quite an experience. I thought there would be less people after the weekend openings, but alas that wasn't to be. (Not that I really mind.)
 Anyways. It is very pretty inside. There are fruit aisles and meat aisles and sweet aisles and.... everything really. I am really impressed. There are even some Christmas trees with lights. It was very pretty.
Oh yes! I took some photos.


The entrance















The dairy aisle...  


















Apples!!! (Also notice the large numbers on the price tags.)
(And my dad's back)



















My sister and her best friend Sasha.   
 Also go check out their new blog....   





















These little guys are waiting patiently for me to devour them.




















For any Afrikaans speaking people who might be reading this...

















I think it looks rather fancy. I really liked seeing the 'familiar' stuff again. Some days you just feel like you need a piece of South Africa, now we have it. :D


Well, I guess that's all for now.
