cooking for one

i was determined not to write this post last night as i felt that this blog was starting to develop a theme about being without human company - but here we are. 5.19pm and i have no idea what to nutritiously cook for one. the stash of frozen and canned goods is dangerously low. any suggestions appreciated. right now in my head i am in melbourne and sampling some cheeses at the fromagerie - just 10 days too early. am looking forward to a trip on the 29th, where not only will i not be cooking (at all) i will be with my gorgeous sister. happy days.

keeping ourselves company

lately, tim, myself and the dog have been keeping ourselves company so to speak. i haven't blogged for a little while because it's harvest. this means that tim is working long hours and i am working hard to keep myself company. tonight i cooked for 5 men.

the photo shows one of the 3 headers and a chaser bin that collect the grain once the header is full.

the other photo is of our dog millie, who i love very much. she played well with her new frisbee today - she actually brings it back which is a novelty.

keeping yourself company can be scary. you have no-one or nothing to distract you or censor your thoughts. today was particularly hard and i distracted myself (from myself) with TV - something i am trying to limit. tomorrow i may go to a friend's farm for lunch - harvest is a good time to do ladies lunches. but then it might rain tomorrow and all bets will be off!

ps. as you can tell i am still learning about how not to blog - accidentally uploaded a picture that was not the right way round - oh well.

mo watch

there are moustaches all over the place as movember has been embraced at our place. here is the before photo; mos will be regularly posted to show progress.

bling

here it is!! my new engagement bling. haven't worn it out yet due to concerns over its safety but am sure i will get over that one.
