  1. Bendi 2010

    July 21, 2010 by sunrisesister

    We went to Bendigo! A big group of us stayed at the same place as last year, this time taking up 3 houses instead of the 1 and retreat! We were there for the Australian Sheep and Wool Show which was fabulous and even more busy than last year.

    So busy, in fact, that I think I took a grand total of about 10 photos :(

    However, there was yarn buying! woohoo!

    So many great finds, and some lovely surprises. I even got a (very affordable) swift and some blocking wires too. Stoked. I had some great scores in the BWM bargain room, including some 12ply and some undyed cameo which has a touch of lovely fluffy angora.

    And we even had a Dagwood Dog for Kelli xx

  3. Mother's Day

    May 11, 2010 by sunrisesister

    The big 3 kids weren’t home, so it was a bit of a quiet Mother’s Day. No cold tea and burnt toast in bed for me :( It’s amazing to think that exactly a year ago, I had horrible morning sickness!

    We dont do the mother’s day thing much, but this year I did get something I really really wanted.. a cook/frypan/banquet/slow cooker thingamybob. I really wanted a slow cooker, but with a big family and a CRAP stove, this is ideal!

    A pan filled with choc and goodies!

    mmmmmmmm cooking.

    My first dish, Butter chicken. I treated myself to this book in anticipation. This recipe is a KNOCKOUT. Clean plates all rounds, and seconds and thirds devoured. Awful pic, great curry.

    The pan is wonderful – max high sear is VERY hot, and the element is lovely an even. Apparently you can cook nearly anything in it, so I am looking forward to using it instead of the crap stove/oven for most meals!

    Finally, it is finished, and even has buttons! I struggled to find nice matching ones, but these simple blue buttons work well. It’s off to it’s intended recipient tomorrow :)
