Thursday nights at our place...

Thursday nights at our place involve a family activity that we all love.  It's pasta night, spag bol night.  Almost two years ago we started making the pasta ourselves, everyone gets involved and it's lot's of fun.

It now means that spag bol night is not a quick meal thrown together at the last minute like it used to be.  It takes a little more time and preparation but the time spent together is priceless. We are making memories as well as fresh yummy pasta.

Eggs and flour. How easy is that.

I finished both my stitcheries from Glen Harrow stitch-in and now just need to put them together into their finished pieces.  I have loved doing a bit of embroidery and red work, it's very relaxing and nice to sit by the window in the afternoon sunshine and stitch.



Vegies...

We recently planted our vegies in our new Earth Boxes.  We'll have to let you know how they go, the kids are very excited about growing our own strawberries too this year, here's hoping that we have success!

Couldn't resist putting in this beautiful photo of some roses that my friend Nicole picked from her own garden, the fragrance is almost hypnotic, pure pleasure given to us by our Creator.

Until next time, enjoy making happy memories too

Thanks fo telling me I had won at Janelle Wind. I have been busy and hadn't looked around the blogs. Home made pasta looks great I see the Cook and the chef making it and think or too hard.

Homemade pasta is the best!! I have a pasta machine - I must admit it hasn't had much use lately! Thanks for inspiring me to get it out again. Your roses are wonderful.
