This Weekend I'll Be.....

.......transplanting all the hundreds of 'Babies' that our gorgeous Christmas Lillies have just presented us with into lots of smaller pots &

.......telling the 'Parents' how proud we are of them!
........dashing around the corner to the Organic Market to pick up some fruit & vegies &


.......and a couple of loaves of yummy local Hills bread.


........responding to a request from MOTH for a big dish of Millie's Moussaka &

.......opening a bottle of red to enjoy with it &


........ doing an encore performance of this yummy Macadamia, Port & Prune Cake from the lovely Anna @ TOXTETH. MOTH said is was best cake I'd made in years! Get the recipe here.



.....and best of all, sneaking up the road to the Mount Lofty Golf Course for some important negotiations with the local wildlife & my handicap!
So whatever it is that you're planning this weekend, make sure it's FUN!

    I don't know you personally, but I can really feel that you have a very nice family and good life. Planting/Gardening is such a worthy and fulfilling hobby.

    Those lilies really look amazing. I've never tried planting them and wonder if they could survive our hot weather.
