Garden review – Summer Harvest.

February 18, 2010

At this time of year we should be reaping the benefits of our veggie garden. We should be watching things ripen and eating from our garden every day. This year though, things are a little blah on the garden front. We’ve had set back after annoying little set back with the garden this season. Nothing [...]

A House for a Tiger – Imaginative Play

February 17, 2010

An old box, some sprigs of gum leaves, a few stones, gum nuts, pine cones… and don’t forget the big cats! Some times it is as simple as setting up a house for a family of tigers (and other animals who came to visit later) to keep a two year old boy entertained while he [...]

After School Activities – How Much Is Too Much?

February 16, 2010

The Twinadoes have ballet and tap on a Monday night. It makes Mondays a very, very, very long day, but they adore dancing. Not only that, but they have blossomed in ways I never ever imagined. They get so much more from ballet and tap than just learning to dance, so the long Mondays and [...]

Jam – Take 2.

February 15, 2010

Some of you might remember my first attempt at making Jam. ‘Smoky Mountain Strawberry Jam’ was what my lovely husband jokingly called the thick sludgy burnt outcome.

February 14, 2010

We don’t really celebrate Valentines Day on the Pickle Farm. I was treated to a sleep in while the Baldy Boy and the kids made pancakes and I am making his favourite meal for dinner so I think that is celebration enough. One thing I do enjoy about Valentines day is all the lovely digi [...]

Today’s Post….

February 12, 2010

My blog post is over here today…. in a special little spot reserved for reviews and give aways only. I’ve only just ventured into the world of review posts and give aways and I’m not planning to do many of them, just the odd one or two that really appeal to me and hopefully to [...]

Let There Be Music!

February 11, 2010

The Twinadoe’s school offers internal music lessons with students being able to pick from a variety of instruments to learn if they wish. I’m quite keen for the girls to learn an instrument (though probably not until next year) and they seem quite enamoured with the idea too. There has been some discussion recently about [...]

February 3, 2012

I am back making school lunches and next week my big boy will need lunch for kinder (preschool) too, thankfully only once a week, but all of them want to know when I will start leaving notes in their lunch boxes! So I think it’s time for some new lunch box notes. I am not [...]
