Morning splash-- The sun is shining  nicely but it is still quite cool(cold in fact as once again frost warnings last night. You getting to be quite  the nice little housewife--but knowing how to feed yourself is very important.. Tea was mostly a lot of instructions-- we have a census to do--it is online this time and I figured,government it will be confusing. But actually long as you followed the instructions it was easy.All done so that is out of the way,have to wait for Kevin(or one of my computer whizs) Have to make and account with the government for the Dental plan---we would get free dental that way -but as I said dealing with government id not easy. Have a good day.

Hello Ed, TY for the Mallard. When I have family and friends here we always sit at the Dining table. When it it is just me I have my dinner in front of the TV generally watching a comedy show. Once the TV show and dinner is over I usually go out onto the verandah or into my library to do what I am doing now. I am in the Library now as it is too cold outside. The cats have just joined me and Mindy is doing her low growl as she wants to go out. Not going to happen. Good grief after nearly 2 years of living with me you would think that she gets my rules. Mungo is sitting near me watching her and then looking up at me when I growl at Mindy. My crazy life with cats!
What election do you have?
I will soon be in bed to continue reading my book. Enjoy your new day!

TY, morning

Hello Ed, TY for the Peace Dove. I have wrapped all gifts and they are ready to post tomorrow. Re Craig Silvey he confessed to child exploitation. GRRRRR!!!! I didn't do the deep dive so not really understanding it all. I have been the door person for my cats today. They want to go out and shortly after want to back inside again. It hailed here early this morning and has been raining on and off all day. And the wind coming off the sea has been strong. I drove around the corner for my morning coffee. Given that I drove I also purchased a big  packet of toilet paper and a bottle of organic milk. Haha the toilet paper is made by a company 'Who Gives A Crap.' Packaging and all made from recycled paper and the company donates 50% of the profits to help poorer countries with santitation. Not many people know that. Enjoy your new day.

Hello Ed, does your sister have Gluacoma? Mum does and she also had eye injections until a few months ago when the eye doctor told her that she wasn't giving her any more as they were no longer helping. In other words, Mum will eventually go blind. We had hail here early this morning and today is the coldest day so far this year. I went to Rosebud this morning to purhase birthday presents for 2 young Grandsons and 1 Great Grandson. So now I have to wrap them and take to the P.O. tomorrow. Enjoy your day!

Morning splash-- mallard ty. Your egg had some get up and go in it--don't think I want to cat eggs firsst thing in the morning so I won't try that and will stick with the boling water.Itts funny but both Ryley and Jessica have boyfriend.girl friends in the Oshawa area. Jess goes down by train every Fri and comes back Sunday.  A few things to get done today before going to tea,If I don't get it done before I don't do anything  when I come back up. Have a good day and if you are doing the food shop better get in the habit of checking the frig!!!

Hello Ed, I hope that little Sylvie is ok! Good grief her eye! Re.Craig Sylvie (SP?) I loved his book Jasper Jones. I had it in the school library. I guess that all of his books are being withdrawn from Libaries now and rightfully so given that he has admitted to all charges. In the mean time I did a bit more clearing in my garage. I have put out a camping fridge, that was not mine, it is Sarah's, on the nature strip for possible collection. And I have a lawn mower that is also Sarah's and I have constantly asked them to take it away however they never do. When it is not raining it will also be out for free. Now that I have got that off my chest I will go and reheat my dinner. Sorry.

Hello Ed, yes just boiling and egg it a good idea! No explosions unless you forget it! I have been to Nashville but not as a tourist. It was with The Little River Band. Overnight stay. Wednesday art group today although I didn't really do much except enjoy chatting. Then popped into a shop in Sorento and found a grease guard for my frying pan. $3. Perfect as the other day after cleaning my stove top I cooked last night's dinner and oil splattered everywhere. Oh and that dinner is not complicated. I buy the rissoles from the corner shop and fry them in olive oil, the only oil I use. Potato / garlic  mash easy as I buy it from the superket already prepared. Then I chop mushrooms and tomatos and add to the pan after the rissoles are cooked. Grinded salt and pepper as well. Small fresh spinach leaves on the pIate and I top it off with an Italian Glaze! Perfecto! 20 minutes tops to make! The secret is the rissoles that are made locally! And that will be my dinner again tonight as I always make 2 servings. TTFN

Sorry getting like you--must have hit the enter  instead of the shift. Have a good day.

Morning splash-- It is sunny and 24 but seems we are waiting for rain to move in ,although they say light rain(thats when we will get gully washers) I hope you can have a good and uneventful trip to the supermarket.I guess where ever you go now you will be on the look out for puzzles(Years ago I had a bunch of food ones that had no sky and were very colourful with definate
dark lines outlining the food--guess be on the lookout all the time)
