The GC picked these today from the compost.  These were from just 2 blocks of compost.

Amazing Chookie. I'd love to see a photo of them actually in the compost as when you say a block of compost I don't quite know what that means.  I thought the delivery would be loose mushroom compost so the term 'block' is confusing me.

It's been pouring here today. I went out to the physio and then over to Tenina's favourite shop Weigh n Pay. I bought some dried cherries,fresh yeast, pandan paste and a couple of other bits and pieces.

Yesterday I picked Gayle up and we joined Bedlam for lunch in Kings Park. It was a little cool but great fun for us to chat. Thanks Gayle and Bedlam.

It is the Creswick Farmers Market today, must go. If we are lucky the rain will hold off.
Still drying mushrooms. They shrink to about 1/10 Th of their original size.

K Atie , nothing like fresh eggs. We are now getting 6 most days , even though 3 of our old girls are nearly 3.
Dedicated parents to stand in the rain to watch kids play sport. Well done.

Thank you Achookwoman we love being part of their sporting games . Last hockey game today for DD started to rain then eased off . Yet very cold . Hilariously they all had drumstick ice creams after as a treat for all their effort this season  !!
