I can’t remember exactly when I first heard about a thermomix but I’m pretty sure it was on facebook or through a blog when the twins were babies. I nearly fell over when I heard the price but then when I saw everything it did. I was drawn in. And wanted one. Perhaps I even lusted after one. […]
{Keep Reading...}step away from the macaroni cheese
June 10, 2011 By 18 Comments
We LOVE macaroni cheese in this house. In fact when I ask keira what she wants for dinner it’s generally macaroni cheese. I had been making my own recipe and then decided to give PW’s a go and it’s so good. There was no turning back. More sauce and way more cheese than mine but […]

Well cleaning and decluttering my house has taken me away from making things. Oh and children. Yes, they do take up most of my time too. Mustn’t forget them. Anyway, I can’t get anyone in to do quotes for my kitchen until my junk craft room is sorted. So I’ve made that a bit of a priority […]

One of the things I love about having children is shopping for clothes for them. Or maybe I just love shopping full stop.

You’ve been asking me what has happened to our country plans. And I can report that we’re staying. The reality of spending weeknights away from retro daddy and if his job changed and he was no longer interstate during the week, leaving friends, changing schools and other long term considerations mean we are staying. My […]

I have quite a few sponsored posts at the moment so just to let you know that I’m still here. And since I get a few days break from writing blog posts, I’m hoping to use my time to make a quilt, finish a scarf and make more recipes. And if I could magically cure a teething […]

Well I’ve been sleeping a little easier lately. Why? Not because my children are sleeping through the night. Apparently I sleep through everyone waking up and don’t even hear retro daddy telling me that someone is awake. And I thought only he had selective hearing. No it’s not that. I now have a metre of […]
