RAIN

This rain is such a welcomed relief after the dreadful heat of the past few weeks. However it also means that I cannot get out and about to take any pics.

The highway was cut on Monday at Sth Johnston and it is cut today at Ingham! I hope some of this goes west as we need it BADLY!

Today I am feeling well, but bloated. The medication really does play havoc with my system! This morning we went out for breakfast and when I stood up, my waist band was folded over and tucked under my belly (sort of) due to the bloating! Oh well... its just part and parcel of the big picture.

I am going to share another 'vague' story. One time when I was going through treatment, before the embryo transfer, I was required to provide meals for about 5 men working for us. This meant breakfast, smoko, lunch, nibbles after work and dinner. One day I decided to make berry friands for smoko. Friands require melted butter, so I put the measured amount in the microwave to melt. Whilst the butter was melting, I continued mixing the other ingredients together. When I was happy that everything was mixed well, I spooned the batter into the friand tin, placed it in the preheated oven and set the timer. I then left the kitchen to do something else. Upon my return to the kitchen, I noticed that there was 'something' in the microwave... THE MELTED BUTTER!!! So, I bundled up these butterless friands and drove the 10klms to the cattle yards where the men were working. They are always so polite and grateful for any food that they didn't say a thing, however they were all drinking ALOT whilst eating these friands. Mr Fabulous of course told me they were lovely and didn't need the butter. I am still not convinced on the honesty of his statement!!

No pics today- sorry!

Have a fabulous afternoon
