PAINT ON MY HANDS

Yep...I miss it...I love it...
Getting paint on my hands...this is the first part of my piece for SOC...hosted by the beautiful Kristin....I will post up my finished piece with the link to her blog when I finish the piece.

I have also been busy building,  with the kids,  a vege patch in the backyard. Hopefully we get many years of produce from it. We want it to be organic,  with organic soil and good raised garden beds. However,  we did use normal seedlings.  Hopefully these won't be to bad as long as we use no chemicals on them ( if they even grow!)

Hopefully my little gardens inspire you to plant something of your own.

Until next time
Lots of it

Lunch

Well...been a while...lots happened but no time to post...home schooling takes up much time...I'm hoping to do more regular posts...a bit more art too..

So, today will be about simple eats.

I made a frittata today...simple and quick.

Cook all of these in a large non stick frypan with a little olive oil.

Onion chopped
Carrot grated
Zucchini grated
2 handfuls of baby spinach
Cut off kernels from one corn cob

Fry until cooked

Mix 8 eggs and a splash of water.
Pour into pan and stir lightly with wooden spoon to mix egg with veges.

Grate some cheese over the top then leave on low for about 5 minutes.

Take of stove and pop under grill until it's bubbly and cooked.

Bit of cracked pepper over the top.

Delish and the kids loved it.

Until next time

Lots of it
