Nice to see you!

Three major events occurred for me last year (2010), all in the space of about 2 weeks. I turned 50. The following day I got married. Two weeks later, my oldest daughter became pregnant with her first child and my first grandchild.

Most middle-aged people will tell you that in their minds, they still feel 20 something. It's the same for me.

Wasn't it only yesterday that I was planning a night out with guys from the surf club? That gorgeous new perm. Flaired, cuffed denims and the red t-shirt with the off-the-shoulder frill. Corked platform wedgies. **sigh**

Suddenly I'm looking in the mirror and wondering how 30 years can flash by so damned quickly!

So here I am in cyberspace, sharing my genuine shock and horror with anyone who'll listen and maybe I'll even meet some other over 50s who find themselves in the same predicament!

Welcome to my dilemna!!

Cookathon

After playing with Harley, I headed straight for the kitchen.

I chopped up all the vegetables for Harley’s meals and put them on to boil.

I made mushroom soup and ate a bowl of it with some toast, then froze the rest.

I picked a LOT of silver beet and chard from the garden and made a spinach and feta pie …

I cooked up some lamb mince with mushroom and onion and made little lamb pies …

I cooked a whole chicken and made a salsa with tomato, capsicum, onion, grapes, avocado and radish.

A very full and successful day in the kitchen.

Australia defeated Pakistan in the first test in Perth.

Nathan Lyon got his 500th wicket.

Adoring Husband got some work done.

BGWLBH spent the day in The Bay.

Harley got plenty of play time.

I swam!

Now I shall sleep.


Nite all.
