newcastle

Ahh, long weekends. Not too much traffic on the drive up, got stuck a bit on the Central Coast on the F3 on the way back, but not too bad overall. Extra thousand ks on the car, but time well spent to catch up with family and friends, even though this easter was sans chocolate for me, which I think cut down the amount others around me had!

You all know I love my apron. I can’t justify another one for myself, but maybe you can for your or someone awesome in your life from Flirty Aprons


Like that cool “sugar and spice” apron. Love the bow ;) Very Hello Kitty.

Women's Apron Cherry Blossom
Or the cherry blossom one?

Women's Apron Frosted Cupcake

Do you have an apron? Or do you “need” a cool one? ;) hehe

Been making use of the hand-me-down Crock Pot as the days have gotten cooler. How old school awesome is it? :)

Massamum in the Crock Put

It does mean I have to be a little organised to have the ingredients to chop and throw in before I leave for work… and my knife-skills are not as sharp at that hour! (ahhh puns) I have a few cuts to show for that.

What’s next?

April 20, 2011

Roast Vegetable Salad eaten at the Lighthouse, Belconnen, during a lunch break on a planning day. That thing, you know, change. Constant change. Some thrive on it, some freeze at the thought.
