Making lunch again

Here are some more damper creations we made for lunch. This is Mickey Mouse

This is a man and two rocks
This is a man being hanged. Cheerful I know.

Random Pictures

These are some roses that I was walking past, I didn't want to pick them and I wanted to play with my camera so I practiced taking nice pictures.

Here we have a man from church looking a bit surprised that I took a photo.

Making lunch

Yesterday the kids were asking for playdough and it was nearly lunchtime so the obvious solution was damper. This was what we used to do for lunch when we were home educated and we had run out of bread (yes, my mum is a genius) Here is a picture of the creations we came up with.

As you can see firstly the writing has turned blue and is now underlined ??????

Secondly we used food die to make it more interesting. This resulted in patches of colour on some hands and entirely blue hands on one child.

Needless to say we had fun.

Traditions and simple pleasure

We have set up weekly traditions for the times when I have the kids and their parnets are not there. On Monday mornings, if they get themselves ready in time, they get to have a pancake. This is tradition after I suggested it once. They NEVER forget to ask.

On Friday afternoons, when I pick them up from school, it used to be making a cake or biscuits but there was always a squabble about what we make and who gets to do what. Now, we stop off at the shops on the way home to get ingredients for Pizza and then make our own dinner. Friday night is pizza night and there was some disappointment on the part of a child was going to a sleep over on Friday night that she would miss pizza night.

Traditions like these are good, I like them.
