One day, One task

This is my motto from now on. One day last week it took me a whole day to make a pot of cream of corn soup. Yesterday the only constructive thing a managed to do was attend my exercise class, & today all I managed to do was the shopping.

It's official

Yesterday I booked our tickets to Australia!! We'll be there for 11 weeks & dividing our time between visiting family & friends in Brisbane, Bundaberg & New Zealand. We also hope to take a road trip up to Townsville, visiting friends & doing a bit of sight seeing along the way.

Sleeping baby

Yesterday morning I got the pleasant surprise of waking up at 6am to realise that Joshua had been asleep since 11pm! Then last night he slept from midnight until 5;30am. Now if only I could get him to go to bed a little earlier!!

Newly discovered taste

I am a great lover of cheese, but have never really taken a liking to blue cheese. It's too strong a flavour for my liking. However this past week I have used it twice in dishes I've cooked for dinner & have really liked the flavour. I think it is because I'm not just eating it on it's own & the other ingredients tone down the strong flavour. So from now on I think I'll be using more blue cheese in my cooking.

Mouse Hunt

Had a mouse... in the house.

Ate the food... and did a poo.

In the kitchen... hear not see.

We'll set a trap... and that'll be that.

Mother came... had a look.

Got a fright... the mouse in sight.

Chased the mouse... round the house.

Kitty came... got it out!
