Dilmah tea:

| Yes we even have Dilmah cups! |
Sorry but cheap quality teas do not cut it in this house! (Go ahead and call me a tea snob!)
And to go with that cup of tea, a nice piece of homemade banana cake:

I love my dryer when it's raining, I'd accidentally left some towels on the washing line, so had to spin them and dry indoors. Actually I love my washing machine too! They're both made by Fisher & Paykel (NZ brand).
D and I had a nice soak in the bath!
Maybe I'll do a spot of knitting today too. I'm making D a scarf out of some used wool. I had almost finished knitting it into a baby suit for him when he was little, but unfortunately I didn't finish it in time!
Hot soup for lunch! Today I'm having curried kumara:
Sounds like a perfect day. Enjoy every minute of it. Maa
ReplyDeletewhohoo! Another10 good things!
ReplyDeleteLovely things, too. Oh and we're total tea snobs in this house as well :)
Hi Bridget,
ReplyDeleteSo loving your 10 good things today - the curries kumara, the fresh lemons, the banana cake. If I remember I think I will do a post on something similar in the next couple of weeks, as my mood has been down and I need cheering up and reminding that life ain't all bad.
Shall I call you a tea snob, well your in the company of my husband then as he likes his Darjeeling.
I also wanted to come by and say Thank you so much for your encouraging and kind comment on my blog recently. Really means a lot. Thank you. Kindest of wishes.
Mmm banana cake. Maybe I'll make some for the kids tomorrow. Thanks for the idea.
ReplyDeleteWhat is Dilmah tea? never heard of it?
ReplyDeleteHi Everyone thanks for your comments.
ReplyDeleteSorry Matron, Dilmah is a brand of tea available here in NZ - premium single origin tea 100% pure ceylon.
Hi Bridget, I'm able to leave more comments now (finally, although I don't know what was going wrong in the first place!) so I can answer you question about rabbit. Our tame rabbit meat is whiter and much tenderer than wild, unless you manage to nab a really young one. I often egg and breadcrumb the joints and then quickly bake it in the oven as you would chicken and the kids love it. I run them on grass and feed them some pellets with weeds, vege scraps and soaked wheat/corn as extras. Cheaper to raise than my roosters and probably meat equivelent.
