I love ox tail soup. . Served with the meat still on the bone, one piece of bone per serving of soup.

Looks fabulous

Tackling the blueberry garden. It has waist high grass over the whole lot , And wild blackberries the blueberries are hopefully there are still blueberries plants under everything. Poor DH couldn't do everything while I have been ill. So didn't get to the blueberries. I can't do much. Not only do I still not have much energy, but I had a hernia repair surgery just over a week ago. But I hit on an idea. Dh pushes the wheelbarrow to the blueberry patch for me and I cut the grass off at soil level with secateurs so no actual pulling which I can't do cause of surgery) And fill the wheelburrow. Dh takes the full wheelburrow to the compost and empties it when he has time. 1 wheelburrow a day. So far I have discovered 9 plants still alive and 3 dead. Slow and steady and we will get there. I have hit on the perfect way to get the twins to help in removing the tomato plants summer veggies leftovers etc. to the compost. I stand there and tell them how strong they are, how amazing, look at their muscles ripple as they pull out the plants and shift them to the compost and at the finish they get a pickle for each wheelburrow load. I had got chocolate as the reward, but they requested a pickle instead.

What about a bear paw pattern. It is very easy, can use seemingly non matching fabric, fairly quick as the squares are big and the results are stunning

How can they afford it. Here a pack of cigarettes is something like $60

Wasn't that the shopping centre stabber?

I have had the needle go right through the vein in the wrist while having a cannula put in . It hurt when they injected the flush. As in I was just about airborne . Pain stopped as soon as it was all taken out. Bruised for a couple of weeks.

Maybe tow away the caravan before he comes back

Hugs during this stressful time Sending positive thoughts

Media here is saying that only the bishop was actually stabbed. So it isn't a mass stabbing as such. Though still awful. All the rest cut were wrestling the knife away from the teen The lynch mob that the police struggled to keep out of the church is very worrying.

Had abdominal surgery Friday Dh picked me up from hospital Saturday Spent all Sunday in bed Have some treats as rewards for twins doing small tasks for me. Twin one asked if he could have a pickle instead of chocolate to bring in the laundry from the line

I am pretty sure that a numbing spray is used nowadays on just about all sheep farms in Australia

Agatha Christie? They are fairly short. I found them scary enough when I was a teen.

Sorry for your loss

Wish we could get cattle panels in Australia Dh and I are going to try make some arches with Concrete Reo ( the wire mesh used in concreting)

I am guessing the glossy leafed shrub might be what a now deceased relative called shining leaf Molly. Apparently they were popular in the 70s as a low maintenance shrub. The relative thought of them as a pest
