Time to get cooking…….it’s party time!
The Ultimate Blog Party, that is.
It’s kinda funny that I have a foodie blog, coz I’m not much of a foodie at all. I don’t mind what we eat (although preferably healthy), don’t particularly enjoy cooking (would much rather be reading or writing or knitting or hiking), and I burnt the carrots last night.
But I do like capturing memories and want to give each of my eight kiddos their Very Own Recipe Book when they leave home - and here it is! You can have a copy too 
Try out some sourdough bread or homemade spaghetti noodles, while you’re here!
As I say, I’d rather be reading, and you can find me at off the BOOKshelf….and I really love the adventure of travel, so you can find me wandering round Pilgrims’ Progress too.
We don’t head out without our kids and they are full of awe and wonder when they are not busy with inventions and adventures.
Welcome to our wee corner of the world.
PS. Tammy has kindly pointed out that you just can’t work out *who* I am. Well I’m nobody famous, and yes she’s right, I don’t fall into the category “normal”. But I’m happy to fill you in - a few details are up there on the page “Once Upon A Time” (but even they are vague), lots can be found in myother blogs listed above (if you have all day); here’s the short version:
30-something, married to my first and only sweetheart, mother to eight kids who haven’t been to school (can’t bring myself to say we *homeschool* coz….well…..we don’t…..we read lots of good books together and all of us learn about whatever sparks our interest)…..I’m a whizz at having ideas, dreaming, planning……I’m trying to get on top of my unfinished projects….I have lots of soapboxes and wash my hair with baking soda….I’m a bit random really (had you worked that out All By Yourself?)……two years ago discovered a new love (knitting), two days ago discovered another one (collage making on the pooter - just need to find some nice software so my ideas can become reality)……dream of living self-sufficiently on a big block of land….one day want to make my own shoes………would like to try tie-dyeing clothes……..love to read….want to share what I learn with others…….love my kids…..we’re all about to go on a Big Trip from New Zealand all through South East Asia (including some volunteering in Cambodia and Laos) and China and Mongolia and across Russia all the way to the UK where we’ll meet up with the best father-in-law in the world and capture his childhood stories as we travel (as well as visit some of our favourite storybook places), on to Europe and then….who knows? You can read all about that in one of those blogs up the top. Does that help Tammy?
