Harvesting Time



Harvest in the wheatbelt, the busiest time of the year.

Not just for the guys out there taking the off the crops, but for those in the kitchen feeding them. Today I have four to feed. Son 1 is home and working for another farmer, Son 2 is out harvesting and has his partner with him today and Snaggers (Dear Husband) is carting the grain.

So wraps it was all round. Once I'd cut, sliced and grated the fillings, it didn't take long at all. I like to use Tortilla Wraps. I used to like the Old El Paso ones, but they stick together too much, so now I use the Select Brand (Horrors! I do try to avoid these home brands that are taking over the supermarket shelves).

Some banana cake, chocolate peppermint biscuits, peanut biscuits, some fruit and some nuts as well as hot chicken wings and everyone is taken care of for the rest of the day.

Now, to think about tea!!

Lemon Cat Cake

I have a cat who loves people food. He gets up on the breakfast bar and tries to eat my toast in the mornings. He's horribly annoying and is constantly being growled at, but it doesn't deter him one bit.

He's a black cat, named Diesel. He has an attitude. He also likes raw cake batter...

Mmm, Lemon Cake

I love Lemon Cake

Tell me if I've got something on my whiskers...or on my chest fur, or my head, won't you?

For the record, everything will be sterilised in the dishwasher!!
