WELL DONE SAINTS!!


Well the boys have done it for two weeks in a row, and guess who didn't tip them in her footy tipping comp!! But hey beating Adelaide at home, not many teams do that!
Well done guys and keep it up.

Now on a totally different topic, what am I going to do Sunday....well I have Desperate Housewives and Brothers and Sisters to watch from last week. Might do a little housework (if I dont' keep on top of it, by next Friday it is out of control LOL) and maybe read a little, knit or get some cross stitch done. My mojo has been missing for cross stitch for a couple of months now, I feel like doing some but just can't be bothered.

Oh and only a four day working week this week yipeee!!!!!!

Daylight Saving

Why is it when Daylight Savings finishes the weather automatically goes into free fall.
I got up this morning and it was overcast and cool. Yesterday and last night was fabulous.

Don't get me wrong, I don't like daylight savings.... here in Perth it is just to hot in the summer for it.

Well I have got a few household chores to do this morning then hopefully it is on to crafting for the afternoon.

But the big question of the day is WHAT TO DO FOR DINNER ?????

Pork Crockpot Recipe

Well if you recall Sundays post I said I would post the recipe if it was good.

Well it was yummy and it did me for two nights.

The recipe came from here

http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/search/label/pork.%20lots%20and%20lots%20of%20pork

but I did jig it a bit, I used Pork Loin Chops instead and didn't have any Cranberry juice so just used a jar of Cranberry Sauce and added some water.

I cooked mine for about 7 hours, but I could have got away with 6, the pork was so tender that it fell apart just a little to much.

SAD DAY

RIP Natasha Richardson

Well we are having an Indian Summer, yesterday was about 34 deg and today got to about 39deg.

I finished the first side of my cushion and got about a third of the other side done - gotta love air con and fans LOL

I have Pork Chops with Cranberry Sauce in the crockpot for dinner - if the recipe turns out good I will post it here, if you don't see it posted it was sandwiches for dinner LOL.

I also made some muffins and they are great so here is the recipe:

So Little Time

I have been so busy at work, that I haven't got much of anything done, I have nearly finished the first side of the cushion. I have about 8 rows to go then I can do it all again on the other side.
I will post a picture of the first side when it is finished.
