Our neighbours visited Kooka’s Country Cookies last week and brought us back two bags of cast-offs; those irregular, broken bits that can’t be used in final packaging and are sold at the factory. So if you hear my complain about any weight gain over the next few weeks we’ll all know why! ~~Yummy~~
I thought I’d removed almost all trace of my pregnancies/births from the house until I was cleaning out deep within my bathroom cupboards, as I described yesterday. Then I discovered the above – nursing pads (which I barely used, these may even be circa Keira’s era), labour aromatherapy oils given to me by a well…
Last week, we almost bought a new house. Last week, we almost put our current house on the market. I’m sure they’re two sentences that will strike fear into many a heart. For us these statements are true. These two things may still happen, but not just yet. This house we were interested in was…

The Asham Award is an English prize for short-stories written by women. This book is a collection of winners and well-placed stories from the competition. I’ve never heard of it before, but gee the quality is good. “Spirit” I’ve never heard of before. The “How to Write Sci-Fi/Fantasy” books are ones I’ve borrowed before, and…
