Home Made Soup

With the dismal drizzly weather of the past few days, yesterday seemed the perfect time to try out our new slow cooker (obtained with our Credit card points) - I do miss the old Coonara heater for slow cooking in winter. Made lamb shank broth (Farmer Dave's organic lamb shanks), yummy if I do say so myself........my dear friend Robyn called in for coffee and ended up having some for lunch too. Robyn's a brilliant cook so when she said it was delicious I felt very chuffed (grin). Have put some into the freezer for Bill while I'm away next week if he remembers to eat!
Re-found a great site recently, I'd forgotten about http://www.tropic

I'm currently listening to the hits of 1967 (what a great year - the year I became a Mum) - its like having my own jukebox, very nostalgic!!
Yesterday was also the annual clean out the filing cabinet and sort out any papers that might be needed for the accountant at tax time........which also means theres another lot we can destroy from years past, once upon a time I would have tossed the box out without thought, but these days I worry about identity theft so I spent a lot of time shredding - and reading, interesting to see the cost of things just 5 years ago!
Thankfully the Doggies play early Sunday afternoon so I won't be in trouble missing family dinner to watch football............
Till next time............Go Dogs, woof
