The Laucke Wallaby flour worked out at $2.20 a kilo.
That was a good buy, Chookie

Vege stew, beans and potatoes, macaroni salad, vegan parmesan, smoky macaroni with cauliflower and broccoli (too much pasta!)

Good to hear, Cookie.  I was curious about that one.

I have ordered one of the adaptations that keeps small quantities at the bottom of the bowl (bad description, but I cannot remember the name at the moment).  It's for when you are grinding nuts, making pesto or small quantity sauces, etc.

What a stressful day you had, K Atie.  You must have been really wound up to have missed your turnoff to home.

Take care in this weather, everyone.

It was so hot today that some of my small tomatoes cooked on the bush.
Oh dear!  Instant puree?

DD and I had fun making one of those rugs when she was young.  I've no idea what ever happened to it.

During the weekend DS took a big bag of tomatoes and two jars of chutney to a friend and exchanged them for a big bag of onions and two different types of potatoes.  A good trade but now I have lots of onions to cut up.  No doubt I will be crying by the time I finish cutting them up.
That was a good trade, Margaret, I sympathise with the tears, though.

Had my CT scan yesterday and will not hear for another week or so what the results are and what the next step will be.

It is our public holiday next Monday, won't make any difference to me as it is my regular day off.

Thanks for the link Chookie, I use a lot of her recipes and really like them - although these days the recipes are full with adverts (the last one I looked at had 13 different adverts throughout the recipe - some static and some 'rolling' - and I found it very off-putting - I understand the income from advertising, but she may find that such a heavy load of unwanted adverts might lose her more followers than they are worth - just my view, anyway).

I am totally fascinated by all your tomatoes, Margaret - are you keeping some seed for next year or are you working on a less prolific plant?

Chookie, good to hear that you are not gluten intolerant after all.  That must truly be a huge relief to you, but I think you discovered several good gluten free recipes that you could use for GI friends.

Thanks for your thoughtful wishes everyone.  I have a CT scan on Monday and will see the surgeon in a week or so.

I am now hobbling about on a super-dooper moon boot - I reckon I look like a storm trooper from Star Wars!

After yesterday, we had a fantastic day today - our neighbour purchased a very generous gift voucher for DH's 70th birthday last year for  a small restaurant called Jack Rabbit near Portarlington on the Bellarine peninsula.  So,today we went for lunch.  It was a perfect day, exactly the hoped for warm day, clear skies and a flat calm, bright blue harbour which our table overlooked.  A wonderful day after yesterday's news.

Sorry to hear your reaction to the shingles vaccination, Cookie, hope it clears very soon.

I visited my surgeon regarding my broken bone, torn ligament, etc.  I didn't realise the extent and repercussions of the damage. There was talk of metal plates and screws!  I've got to go for a CT scan and am now hobbling about in a moon boot.  Ah well, I guess I have a bit of a challenging time ahead, but I am much luckier than many so I cannot moan.  The bright side is that we discovered the surgeon is a customer of ours!

I agree, KAtie, the head massage is always relaxing - but it doesn't last long enough!!

You must be sick of the sight of tomatoes, Margaret!  I am sure you will feel very virtuous in the months to come when you are eating the results of your own garden produce.
