Mr Chops, Mrs Chicken and 20,000 Eggs Later…

October 6, 2013November 14, 2013 / Jane / Leave a comment

It has been a most interesting week... Filled of course with chickens and eggs, with sheep also in residence here we have diverged a little to the tune of sheep herding in preparation for shearing. Only people and a quad bike in action, I was just getting the hang of it by the fifth and … Continue reading Mr Chops, Mrs Chicken and 20,000 Eggs Later…

Egg Madness, Cauliflower Soup and Woodpeckers

Despite being a little worried about this egg madness, I am actually eating some of the healthiest since I left Melbourne...

A red full moon spied in Batchelor, Katherine's equivalent is orange! Spending a lot of time this week looking at the sky, some through a telescope, I have gained a new respect for the moon. Waiting later every night to marvel at this phenomenon, I learnt that the moon appears approximately fifty minutes later every … Continue reading Jelly Beans, Maps and On The Road to Alice Springs
