Re: Good Morning!
Times have definitely changed @TAB. Anything you can do for yourself in terms of food, even something small, is a good thing.

Re: Good Morning!
yes, thats true @Molliex esp re cost, environment, waste, transport costs, coles cheese bought other day comes from Netherlands. Why? Cauliflower cheese used to buy made in Belgium. US company bought out aust food processing company 0 plus years ago, now deleting aust corn etc, comes from US lol ok that was Simplot, so food travels more than I do, with everyone taking a cut along the way . Sorry, got on soapbox

Re: Good Morning!
@Molliex ... Ive never been into crafty things either, always having been more the sporty type. But @Gazza75 has been doing diamond painting for a little while now and has been posting about it on the Craft Thread. He's done some really nice ones and has got me interested. So I decided to try it myself, and did my first little beginners attempt last week. Now working on a larger one, of a green tree frog. Its coming along well. Diamond Painting is, as described by Gazza (help me out here) a little bit like painting (or colouring) by numbers. Only you have a canvas with a grid thing on it full of little symbols, which has been prepared with a sticky adhesive. The kit supplies a stack of little dots (can be either square or round) of many different colours. And you follow the grid directions to apply all the tiny little dots into the proper squares to end up with a lovely sparkly painting. Its fun and anyone can do it. Would make lovely gifts (Gazza is planning on giving one of his to his brother) either as a finished product framed, or else as a kit for anyone who is into crafts and like to make their own.
Gardening ... Hmmm ... I love a nice vege patch, but havent had one for a few years now. @TAB Lack of time to care for one mainly. But at the moment I am collecting the Woolies 'potted fun for all' seed pots. I have lots of herbs all sprouting ... corriander, cress, rocket, dill, parsley. Will soon need to plant them out into bigger pots or find a spot in the garden. I also have some snapdragons, but not sprouted yet. And for veges I have ... lettuce (already sprouted) carrots and beetroot all happening. Just a bit of fun. Love watching things grow. @Molliex this could be something your little girl would enjoy too. Do you have a woolies nearby? I think you get one little plant kit for every $30 spend.

Re: Good Morning!
Thanks @TAB I got myself one of these elevated garden beds yesterday, from Bunnings, for a little herb garden, and maybe lettuce. Hoping it will be easier off the ground. 🌱
