cooking morning- berries fresh off the tree

This morning hubby picked red currants off the tree and we made red currant jelly/jam. We covered the tree this year with netting and didn't lose any to the birds.

Tassie tiger satchel for our New Zealand trip

Hubby and I are planning a trip to N.Z. in February, stopping off at Oatlands this week on the way home we popped into Oatlands hand made and I just couldn't resist this satchel to take away with me. It is made by madeit.com.au/stalley
very appropriate for a tasmanian to carry around don't you think with the tassie tiger on the front.

There's nothing nicer than sitting reading the sunday papers and eating a nice fresh piece or two of home made date loaf.
