SHOPPING, GARDENING ETC

 

First up for today is to do a small grocery shop.  Stew and I will do that together.

Then once we are home again, we shall plant the two passionfruit vines we bought last weekend.  And there's a little bit of weeding to do, but not much thanks to the weed mat and rocks.

I talked on Friday about doing 'something' in Crabby Quarters.  It's not moving it somewhere else... cos there isn't anywhere else all my sewing stuff would fit in this place.  

I have been told by Management it can happen, but knowing my F-tard neighbours, I'm sceptical.   The last thing I want to do is spend thousands of dollars, to then have another BIG problem with the neighbours.  😖😡

So, until I know it's a definite 'GO', I won't tell you what it is.

Daylight saving started today.  I hate it.  Why the F don't we just stay on the same time year round, and not dick around like this?  One hour 'extra' sunshine at the end of the day makes 5/8th of F all difference.  We still get THE SAME amount of sun!  Grrrrr.   Anyone else feel the same?  Or do you like it?  

ONWARD...

Interesting comment just in:

AnonymousSep 27, 2026, 10:58 AM Have you ever received a diagnosis of ADHD? You tick all the boxes.

And that would be a 'NO' from me.  This may sound very controversial, but I don't even believe in ADHD.  I have my reasons.  Each to their own.

I don't get why you think I have SO CALLED ADHD??? Explain yourself.

Just finished the shopping, and have now got some Almond Flour Cheese bread type things in the oven.  I just made up the recipe... fingers crossed it works.

We shall have them with some Angel Bay rissoles.  Was going to add a lettuce salad, but whoops! The freakin' lettuce is looking really sad.  Might give that a miss.

ABOVE: My Almond Bread things came out PERFECTLY!   

Recipe:  3 eggs, 2 cups Cottage Cheese, 2 cups Almond flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 cup grated tasty cheese, 1 teaspoon Garlic and Herb Salt, 1 Tablespoon Crispy Dehydrated Onions.  

I whip the eggs and cottage cheese, then add the almond flour and whip again, then add the other stuff with a spoon.  Then onto a tray in generous dollops, and into the oven at around 210 degrees C until cooked.  About 15-20 minutes, keep an eye on them.   They come out like a slice of tasty bread!

ABOVE: The lettuce was OK after all, but in the end I didn't eat mine.  I was full after having 'most' of my rissole and bread.

Steve, Bex and the kids called in for afternoon tea.

ABOVE:  I must admit to having some of those little cakes.  It was so nice to have something sweet.

ABOVE:  Happy afternoon snaps.  Lily in the dog bed, which Coco hardly ever gets in.  

The kids have left now, and I'm going to have a little relax, before heading into Crabby Quarters to get things ready for Craft Group tomorrow.

Well I relaxed for a while, then thought, stuff it, I need to do 'the hill'.

There's two ways to leave our village, one via the road, and 'the hill'.  And then you can also walk down to the river bank and walk along the path and take ANOTHER HILL.  I decided to do that one today.

And ANOTHER HILL is steeper than 'the hill' via the road.  Way Steeper!  And I did it.

ABOVE:  It doesn't look that bad eh?  It is, but luckily it's short and sharp, then turns into 'just' a normal hill !  lol

On my way home I popped in to visit a dear friend who's having some health issues.  She's one of the craft room ladies, and she's been in hospital for a week, then home for the weekend, and goes back to hospital tomorrow.  Hopefully they get her sorted out in the near future, she is missed.

Right, I think that's quite enough for today.  

Catch ya tomorrow.
