I’m still under the weather

Hi Everyone

What a week we have had. I’m still sick and as we have a long weekend, its the Queens birthday weekend here in Australia I have spent most of it in bed.

With all this spare time I have been googling and reading all kinds of blogs.

I can across this one

The Whole Food dude

I had a read of his blog and came across this green drink which I made this morning.

I halved the amounts as it does make a lot.

It looks quite mmm how can I describe it….I won’t but it taste so nice.

So fingers crossed it will help.

Until next time

Keep healthy

More fish, my freezer is so full

My DH works long hard hours. Last week he worked everyday and was out for meetings 5 out of the 7 night as well. He finds going fishing very relaxing. So this is what he got upto on Saturday.

This is my DH fishing buddy.

Dinner is served.

They both left at 530am and got home at 4pm in the afternoon. He came home sooooo relaxed which was great to see.

Who else likes going fishing for relaxation?

Until next time

March wrap up

Well how fast is the year going? I just find it hard to keep up with everything.

As I’m running behind with all my posting in March here is a wrap up.

Robyn and I went to Colour Conference”

Then we had The Dreamers Markets

We then both went and spent the day at “Urburn Stitches Retreat”

Met some amazing women.

These are the lovely teachers we had.

Had a go again at a Sourdough Starter…..mmm I ended getting rid of it. It takes a lot of work plus I don’t make enough bread to keep it going.

But I did find this amazing recipe for bread making in a Dutch oven. Very easy takes 5mins at night let sit over night, light kneed then pop into the very hot Dutch oven dish into the oven.

I will post a better how to later.

This is in the morning.

Fresh bread out of the oven.

Somedays I do wonder about myself.

Sorry I’m running late with the blog that I was going to do over Easter.

Some days I do wonder about my myself. The problem was I forgot my login password. Yes I can here you saying “how could someone do that”. Well I change them all the time and just could not remember it, any way all sorted and I’m back on and ready to go.

If you visit the blog page you will notice that I’m playing around with the design and its not finished plus I’ve managed to set up a small on line shop so I can sell some of the things I make and will link this on the Four Red Hen tab.

Now that I have gotten all that of my chest I need to run to a meeting.

This is Tippy a new addition to our family.

Until next time
