Zucchini chutney
We are inundated with zucchinis. We have four plants and their yield is very high. We are growing three varieties: yellow, pale green and crook neck. I love zucchinis. We eat them raw, as a grated accompaniment to any meal. Cabbage can be replaced with zucchinis for coleslaw too. We eat the new ones, sliced, […]
White Christmas
Happy New Year! On December 27th we went to the snow at Hartz Mountain. Everybody in town was raving about how it was snowing, and we thought that we would go have a look. Afterall, it was our last chance to visit the snow in 2010! Once at the mountain, Elora stayed cosy and warm […]
Geeveston Christmas Parade 2010
I think the Christmas parade is one of the town’s highlights! Everybody comes together to celebrate the year and anticipate the next. Organisations from the area support the occasion, whether it be through sponsorship, donations or floats in the parade. This year there were lots of floats! Locals labelled this year’s parade as the best […]
Huon Show 2010

It took us nearly 5 hours to walk around the main oval, with all the stopping we did for various reasons: patting baby animals; gawking at old machinery; eating sausages; stopping for coffee; watching horses; feeding the baby; changing the baby; eating ice-cream; and […]

Grand Final Day #1 2010

Echidna!
A gorgeous creature! On looking out of the window last week, I noticed a stocky creature waddling across our front yard. [Okay, insert joke about waddling pregnant woman here. No, it was not me.] At first I thought it was a wombat. A small wombat out during the day nonetheless. On closer inspection, as I […]
Banana choc chip muffins
Indeed. This is what I am thinking about… it is 5 minutes until the home bell and I am sitting at my desk at work, watching the wind blow the branches of the trees in all directions; the birds flitting around the Dahlias and the clouds trying to decide whether to stay or to go. […]
