Follow up Pics

I couldn't resist adding another pic of my owl. The Bloke has taken a real shine to these softies and thought it would be funny to pose this one among the greenery on the patio. I must admit that I like him showing an interest in my craft and he makes me laugh with his crazy antics. 
I took a few pics to show the lovely morning tea prepared by the girls yesterday. Amy the eldest baked the cakes, slices, muffins and made a lovely sponge cake-her first. 
Katie, made the lovely bread case quiches. These are always a hit, and quickly disappear, and they are so easy to make. If your interested this is what you do.


I use a 12 pan muffin tin; greased
12 slices of bread, remove crusts and butter lightly
in a bowl add beaten eggs, usually about 3-4
1/2 to 1 finely chopped small onion, depending how much you like your onion
2-3 rashes chopped bacon
about a half cup grated cheese, it all depends on your own likes
then put into a medium oven until golden brown
eat straight away, although they are nice eaten cold too.
You can put anything in you like in them


The picture below has the bread cases on the bottom tier

This is the card that my youngest made for me. She is a lot like me in that she likes doing handmade stuff. I love it. That's all folks.


Take care

Sharing some pics

A few posts back I wrote about my girls cooking for me and making my Mother's day the best they could think of. I finally found the energy to download those pics and I present them here for your viewing pleasure. They show scones with jam and cream and a pot of tea, which my daughter Katie wanted to do as a special treat. Well the scones were beautiful, but the tea was less nice, but I am a coffee drinker. :)

The last four pictures were taken last Thursday at a small one pub town called Broadarrow, 38km's North of Kalgoorlie, W.A.
The bloke, myself and two of our daughters decided to do something different for lunch and headed up there around 11am, intending to beat the lunch time rush from the hungry hoards who come from all the surrounding mite sites that surround this town.

We were too late, 3 cars were already lined up in the sparse red dirt. But no matter we listened to the car stereo and read our papers whilst we waited for our famous Broady Burger & chips! My oh my it was worth the wait. That burger had everything in it and was cooked well, and the chips were the best we had tasted. My tip is if your ever in the vicinity call in for lunch, but make sure you take cash, as they don't have EFTPOS. :)

I have some more news and pics to post soon so stay tuned.
