Back from the beach

 Recently one of my classmates and I ventured to the beach for 10 days and during our stay we had a mini class reunion once again. As most of us are 77 or 78 it is becoming more of an effort to make the trip especially since it is becoming so busy on the Sunshine Coast as a lot of people have moved there. However, this time it was very quiet where we stayed and I was concerned for the small businesses there who must be doing it tough. The caravan park was quite full so there must be a few grey nomads still heading north from the southern states. 

Happy Easter

 I have been MIA on this blog lately but I just wanted to pop in and wish everyone a Happy Easter. We don't do the whole chocolate egg thing here as neither of us need to put on more weight at our age and I believe chocolate is quite expensive to buy at the moment anyway....like everything else in the supermarket. 

Cheesemaking and sourdough workshops

 I came across an advertisement recently for  cheesemaking and sourdough workshops presented by Elisabeth Felkonia from Permaculture Real Food. They will be held in the Drayton Hall, Toowoomba on the 17th January but, if you have a look at her website, she will presenting the workshops in other areas as well. 

Happy Christmas

 Well, another Christmas is upon us so I just wanted to wish you all much happiness and joy on this special day. It will be a quiet one here as normally we have my elderly sister here to join us for lunch but she is unwell this year so won't be here. I have happy memories of Christmas in the past from when I was growing up and when our children were little to give me comfort. 

It's been a long time

I rarely have anything to write about these days it seems. As it has been so long Blogger seems to have changed too so I am not sure how this post will turn out.
