Yup I’m baking again!
Had some leftover bacon after lunch so decided to try out a recipe for Bacon & Cheese scrolls I found at Taste.com.au
and they are yum!
Ooh, That’s Pinteresting!–the home edition
Joining in with Tina for Ooh, That’s Pinteresting this week (first time I’ve played along)
Tomorrow we’re getting the house we’re in valued so we can go for a bank loan. Fingers crossed we’ll be home owners by the end of the year. Which means we can do more stuff around the house.
I would love to do this for the planned BBQ area in the back yard.

What I’ve been up to
I’ve been taking a bit of a break from the online world (well apart from checking out twitter on my phone & checking my email only twice a day.) Where have I been I hear you ask? Well I’m glad you did.
It’s been glorious weather here for the last few days so Miss K & I have been out gardening (while hubby & the FIL have been building us a new gate)
We started off with with the garden near the mailbox.
This is what it looked like just after we moved in and we weeded and redid the whole garden. Then it kinda got left and got overtaken with weeds *sigh* This is what it looks like now (I’ve added another 2 plants since this was taken)
Then there is the little side garden which was going to be a rose garden but I decided the other day to turn it into a succulent garden for all my little cacti that needed repotting.

and I also ended up doing the garden beside the driveway. So I’ve been a busy little garden bug.
And then yesterday it poured!
Hopefully this weekend it will be nice again so I can do a bit more. Gotta love the warmer weather, so you can get outside and do things. Miss K is loving it!

The one where I got a bit red
yup I’m a little sunburnt. fortunately just on the arms. spent the day gardening today. the front yard is starting to look really good. put in two of the new plants we got for Christmas from the in-laws. Removed a tree or two & added a new garden bed for the roses I’ve got in pots. Gotta remember I don’t need to plant everything in pots now – we’re not moving. 🙂
So here’s my pics for today – getting the last of the tree root out
and what it looks like after planting some new plants
Still no scrapping yet. Might try & do some 2morrow.
Okies off to do something relaxing. might play the sims 2 for a bit & then get an early night.
