The tradition still goes on but we do not cook for the shearers . Their contractor delivers a platter of food , summertime it is like a smorgasbord of food chicken ham egg salad , and a pasta salad . When it gets a bit colder they have individual roasts with mash and veggies. Done it the foil containers . They just heat it up in the microwave. We supply tea and coffee , biscuits and normally toasty food like bread ham tomato cheese . When we do a big shear I will make a cake , just depends . My MIL will always have a cooked meal for my DH while shearing is on . I just try to always have a spear meal from the night before so he can take that .

Last night we had Eggplant Lasagna, from UK site Cookidoo in Italian Cusine . Was delicious. Used ricotta instead of mosterella. Defrosting a whole chicken .. Not sure what to do with it tonight ! Maybe in pot with lid in oven.

Thank you for letting me know I am not the only one it gas happened to . Thanks for your kinds thoughts . We seem to just keep getting very busy. Hockey went well this weekend for both DS and DD . DD spent Friday night , went out on farm with DH all Saturday, while DS played his two games of hockey, then Saturday night and Sunday morning packing for her Central Australia trip followed by Work experience . All packed up now , house was turned into indoor swag camping ground . In fact we woke to zipping noise , DS had slept end in his swag in the dining room last night .

Well Melbourne is always eventful ! DD and I were travelling along Westgate bridge outbound and now there are more roadworks so 80ks only when you come off it for quite awhile . All of a sudden I lost power 😬 In five lanes of traffic semis every way I looked , hazards lights on then trying to merge to the left . Had to be in the fourth lane.Really never want to be in that situation again . By the time I managed to get on the little bit on the side of the road I was shaking . Deep breath turned the car off and ran through every possibility. Knew that there had to be a me error as nothing came up on the dashboard. I must have knocked the seed limiter button ( now on 100+++ ) drive slowly on the side of road to test that all ok ( hazards lights on ) . Stopped in Ballarat and had all checked out . So pleased that all ok . Long drive to return DD to boardo and pick up DS after hockey practice then home . Quite day now .

Put the two ducks in the slow cooker with fresh ginger, mandarin ,onion , juice as we had no open port or red. Then made a sauce with cranberries, mandarin juice ,ginger , pomegranate molasses, soy, red current jelly , needed cherries but all out of date so the cranberries were used added orange juice for more liquid and juice. Cooked it in the Themo , it tastes nice just not sure if it is balanced . Potato and leek soup on now . In the old bcb there was a potato and leek soup , thought I would search cookidoo and found one in Switzerland site so downloaded op it to my lists and programmed it for today , not bad a lot more leeks but just adapted it for what I had , now kids can make it if they choose to one day !

Been very quiet since I returned after our girls weekend away to Port Fairy . So today I will have to do more washing the family's clothes are breeding. Food has run out , more cooking . Although even after leaving so much food for while I was away , food came to them via lovely person who has a pasta shop . He dropped off more boxes of fresh pasta and croissants that had not yet been baked ! One was saved for me and a surprise for breakfast yesterday . Our old painter dropped a few ducks off too and a local guy left some eggs ! Best weekend lots of laughs and good food ,dining out ,shopping , wedding watching and started with a remedial massage for 11/2 hours !!
