G'day, all.
I've just cooked a roast dinner. mother in law stuffed a chook (her usual bacon, onion and tomato stuffing) and I've roasted it, and some veggies. Carrots, spuds and some quartered, HUGE mushrooms. Want steak and mushroom? Then use this mushroom for a plate. I cooked up one of these last night, it served three of us as a side dish.
easy child is here, with BF1. BF2 isn't home tonight, he's celebrating with work mates the end of his probation (for work). He is now permanent staff, with a bit more job security.
husband & I have been packing today. I helped difficult child 3 with the last of his German schoolwork, all other schoolwork is already packed. I t hen took it all to the post office and sent it off. His teachers should get it by the middle of next week. Because he's worked so hard, we're leaving about four subjects behind us at home.
I've just slipped away for a few moments to begin the thread - who knows when I can get back on here? If I can pop in tomorrow I'll try, but otherwise it won't be until we get back, or maybe an Internet cafe in NZ.
We've just added Sam Neill's vineyard, "Two Paddocks", to our itinerary for the South Island stay. From what I can see on the map, it's in the area, a bit further south. He sells lavender oil, too, I'll have to buy a bottle. Love the stuff!
