[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 98838, member: 1991"] G'day, Linda. My, you HAVE been busy! I'm cooking a lamb soup tonight, I can smell it wafting through the house, smells like it's done. We've had dinner, but we had these 'bits' filling the freezer, it was time to do something. So I roasted the bones (with bits of meat on them) then simmered them yesterday. Today I picked the meat off the bones and tonight (when easy child 2/difficult child 2 got home with more vegetables, I've put it on. She got the bits of celery for free - a customer bought a bunch of celery and easy child 2/difficult child 2 asked, "Would you like me to trim the tops off for you?" So I got the trimmings for the soup - I'm happy, the customer was happy - the price was right, too. This afternoon I took difficult child 3 and difficult child 1's girlfriend to the beach. girlfriend & I catnapped (she in my tent) while difficult child 3 played. The water was lovely but I didn't feel like a swim (still not strong). So I chatted to neighbours who are there every weekend. We're already enjoying our beach, and we're not even into summer yet. A few more weeks. A lovely afternoon, then home to tidy the garden. girlfriend's mother arrived to collect girlfriend & difficult child 1. girlfriend is about to move into her own unit, she is very happy to be leaving home. We have an art exhibition on in the village this weekend - difficult child 3 & I saw it today, husband & mother in law are going tomorrow. It's an annual fundraiser for the local school, it's the biggest earner of the year. Tomorrow is also the school fair, so it should be interesting. Will the local brats leave difficult child 3 alone this time? We shall see... Enjoy your Saturday. Marg [/QUOTE]
