Bloody hell it’s been a little while since I’ve written a blog! This year is flying by. 😵💫 Where to start, really? Let’s go with the latest changes to the fish tanks… 🐟 First the sad news. Our dear snail Gary has passed on 😞 (24.4.22), which was a bit […]
Well, it’s official- I’m going to have a lot of chillies. 😅 The first one is starting to go red. I’ve already started offering them to other people, so hopefully they’ll end up in happy bellies. As mentioned, I’m not much of a spice head, so I definitely won’t be […]
Well, as predicted, it’s been a very mild summer thus far. I’m not complaining- I hate warm weather, so this is great. 😂 So far the heirloom tomatoes I planted are growing like crazy. No 🍅 as of yet, though. You can see strawberry plants either side, but so far […]
It’s that time of year again when I write a reflective piece on the year that was. But… has it really been a year since the last one? Well- not exactly. The last one was posted on the 30th of December 2020, so I still have a week or so […]
So I made a post back in July about upgrading the fish tank. The old tank was a 29L and the new one is 76L (a sizeable jump). There are fish in there- they’re just a bit hard to spot. 😅 There’s Hoover the sucking catfish (Chinese algae eater), Gary […]
So, apparently it’s supposed to be late spring- soon to be early summer… But this is Victoria we’re talking about, so between the sub zero temperatures last week, the pelting rain and severe winds, then the 25+ degree sunshine that followed… I’m not entirely sure what season it’s supposed to […]
We went camping again! As most of the state celebrated coming out of lockdown by catching up with family and friends, we decided instead to spend the weekend isolating ourselves in the middle of nowhere. 😂 We actually booked the site well and truly before the easing of restrictions were […]
Well, it’s almost November (and the end of the year). Where did the year go?? 😱 Since my previous garden post, the snow peas have gone crazy… And the broccoli have sort of mostly bolted. There’s still some edible stalks left, but the weather’s been so unstable (typical) that it’s […]
Well- we’re still in lockdown, and I’m still on annual leave. 🥳 Which means it’s time to do some culinary experimentation!! And do other hobby activities, like editing that story I was writing back in June last year… or going for a walk… And enjoying the earth rumble beneath me- […]
Why hello there 🦎 We actually got some warm weather for the first week of September/spring, so we got to see some wee lizards poking their heads out from the garden beds. Unfortunately we’ll be back to cold, wet and somewhat miserable (I say somewhat, because I actually like rain) […]
