Late harvest

"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds that you plant."

Robert Louis Stevenson

With our "Indian Summer" in full swing, the garden is still throwing food at us and so we have two freezers full of produce. It was so nice arcing up the whizzing device yesterday for a berry smoothie made possible by earlier squirreling away of raspberries in anticipation of this day.

Here is a typical haul from the garden - amazing:

Bountiful

Of course you need to be aware of passengers when you harvest, this little fellow snuck in on the celery.

We are crying foul as the fowls have gone off laying and are looking miserable in their shedding season. Whose idea was it to discard a good proportion of warming feathers coming into cold winter nights? Meanwhile, there is a very real possibility that we will have to buy eggs soon [indignant spluttering sounds].

We also caught up with Anthony's colleague "Cousin Dave" at the local pub this week. Dave (far left on the piano accordion) is a McNamara originally from Finley in NSW - what are the chances!

Happy Easter and enjoy your few days off - it's such a nice time of the year.
