Busy baking day

I bought a cheap box of tomatoes and so made a pile of Jamie Olivers pasta sauce. Yummy just on pasta or great as a sauce for cannelloni. Then iced the yoyo's made yesterday and threw together a batch of Afgans. I still haven't attended to the blackboy peaches that have fallen off the tree. Maybe tonight.

My sister had both hands operated on this week.

The goodies for the invalid. Blackboy peaches, pears and dahlias all from the garden. Some bok choy and lettuce seedlings.
It was a hair dying and drying day. Forgot to take a photo of the finished product.
Silly Mark needs to learn that if he takes self portraits on my camera then I will use them.
Mother - being the main helper for the invalid and doing a fantastic job.

Homework time

Well in our house we have homework time, normally before dinner. As Mieke is also staying she is participating fully and will be the brainiest 8 month old ever. (or so doting uncle aaron says)

A gorgeous break in Rarotonga

Woo hoo, A holiday with no kids for 11 days. Bliss, relaxing and warm! BTW it was an early 20th wedding anniversary present to ourselves....
