What a caring daughter Margaret.
Well we’re going over to Melbourne for a few days, we’re going with DD and SIL who have been over this week and we’ll fly home. Not a replacement for the cruise but it’s still a break and the best part is only having to pack clothes for cold weather, it certainly won’t be warm over there.

We’ve got the Christmas/New Year one booked cookie and I’ve let our travel agent know the story. He wants to see me on Tuesday so I know he will do his best for us and that’s all he can do. I don’t dwell on it, we’ll just look forward to the next one and move on.
K Atie the ladies were also cool about it, no outbursts and we all still had our sense of humour intact.

Hi ladies, just checking in to let you know we’re back home after a fault with one of our passports meant we were not allowed on the ship. Such a long process and there were 3 other ladies who were sent packing too. At least they had time to retrieve our cases, 1 poor lady only had the clothes she was standing in. We’re both in good spirits after our disappointment, sometimes things happen and you have to take it on the chin.

Margaret, good news - keep doing what you’re doing.
Cookie - how devastating for your hairdresser, I hope she has a lot of support from family and friends.
Marina were flying to Brisbane tomorrow for an overnight stay before boarding the Carnival Endeavour on Saturday. Visiting Norfolk Island, Tonga, Suva, Dravuni Island, Vila then back to Brisbane - 15 nights onboard. We’ve also booked another cruise to NZ over Christmas/New Year.

Marina I know a 91 year old who needs a knee replacements but at her age they will not operate. She is going to have those cortisone injections so I hope it works for both of you.
KAtie you travel a lot back and forth, is this the first time you’ve hit a roo?
Our next cruise is coming up so I’ve been busy cleaning right through, making sure the garden is tidy and choosing clothes to pack. Yesterday I made soup with all the leftover veggies.

A batch of lemon and macadamia cookies, sweetcorn soup, a kidney friendly alternative to a tomato based pizza topping (not sure about this one as I haven’t made the pizza yet) and a batch of red capsicum, onion, garlic and shiitake mushrooms which is nice in an omelette, on a pizza, on toast or as the base of stews or casseroles. The soup was a kidney friendly recipe but it was horrible so I added a packet of chicken noodle soup to add some flavour and it then became mine not his😁

10 zucchini/carrot patties plus a batch of roasted red capsicum soup for my friend. Thought I’d try cooking the patties in my pie maker for a thicker and neater patty - and it was. I’ll line the bottom with baking paper next time to make it easier to remove them. He will reheat them in the air fryer.

KAtie, in my early 20’s a bought raw chicken had the giblets and feet stuffed inside the body so I used them in my soup stock too. Overnight in the fridge it would set like a wobbly jelly, it was the best stock.

Hi DJ, nice to see some of our early members pop in from time to time.
Chookie can’t get into the forum at the moment, I reminded her that she may have to login again but it didn’t work like it did last time. She tried to change her password, they said they’d send the code but they didn’t. I’ve written to Mr IT to see if he can help but haven’t heard back from him yet.

I know someone who would enjoy those biscuits cookie but today I made him a batch of honey macadamia biscuits.

I had my main meal for lunch (fish with veggies) so I had banana custard dessert for tea, I often do that.

It is nice to catch up with friends Margaret, we’re all so busy these days but one of my friends soon lets me know when it’s time for a catch-up and we book it in.

I made these yesterday for G Chookie, the ginger version. They went down well.
