    This may sound a bit boring but years ago I tried avocado on a cracker and thought it was ugh yuck disgusting.

I bought one yesterday, chopped it up, mixed it with lemon and salt and ate it on toast and actually enjoyed it! Now I can't wait to try another one
    I used to hate avocado, but love it now and i do not know what changed, just a little rough sea salt, maybe a drizzle of olive oil, i could eat tonnes. Love guacamole as well.

              My challenge this week still be an enjoyable one...
              Test out my new shredder that Santa brought.... The Christmas tree branches might be a good start..
              I dream of a better tomorrow, where chickens can cross the road and not be questioned about their motives....

                Cooked Kangaroo last night. Didn't tell OH what it was till after trying it, otherwise she would have recoiled in horror. It was delicious.

                  Ah you had a Skippy burger?

                  I have got to set up my blow away cold frame thingy as my plants are getting soaked - can I grow rice....ummmm and it might be getting a bit colder.

                    Finished my first weeks challenge which was to clear out the airing cupboard and the top presses in all the bedrooms.
                    Job done and finished this morning.

                    And when your back stops aching,
                    And your hands begin to harden.
                    You will find yourself a partner,
                    In the glory of the garden.

                      Challenge for week 2.
                      Paint my bedroom walls.
                      I am giving my bedroom a makeover and changing the whole colour scheme.
