Work has been incredibly busy for the last 5 months, but has quietened down over the last 2 weeks. I have changed to 12 hour shifts so work from 7am to 7pm. It's great...sounds like a long time to be at work but those extra 4 hours actually go pretty quickly. It has cut down on my travel by 1 day a week and I get to spend more time with the kids. On the days I work it feels like all I do is work and sleep but it is great having 4 or 5 days off in a row afterwards.
Doing a couple of post-graduate papers this year and got to go to Wellington a few weeks ago for 1 of them. Caught up with Cath who now owns Countrystitch. Great to see my baby still living on. Still didn't inspire me to stitch though lol
Max is our new baby and it is just like having a new baby too! We started puppy pre-school last week and it has made such a difference. He can now come, sit and go down! Now if he could just learn the command for stop eating slippers and shoes he would be perfect!!
Feijoa season is upon us again and I found this wonderful recipe by
Linda...a divine chocolate feijoa cake. It has just come out of the oven and I am about to tackle the feijoa chutney next. I just wish the season was longer.
Oh duh - it IS your recipe! I found the link from your post and then forgot where I found it... all the while LOVING that food blog it's on. So yes yes yes. It's so good to see you again, loved reading the catch up. Life goes on as crazy as ever around here, we're looking forwad to Fiji in Sept. 10 days on an island drinking cocktails and swimming. How are the kids?
