I like being at home. My home is a lovely, comfortable place to be. I also like feeling that I have accomplished something. Sometimes in the evening I sit down and think " what have I done today?". Lately I have been wasting alot of my time. It was really nice to spend yesterday and today at home. Yesterday was full of all the usual Housewifely accomplishments (cleaning the house, ironing the Husband's clothes, cooking etc...). Today I spent a few hours designing and making a new bag for my Basilbee product range. It is a lovely denim bag with vintagy bits and bobs appliqued onto the front of it. I really like how it turned out. This afternoon I got cosy on the couch with my crochet and several episodes of the UK television show " Escape to the Country". I like seeing the houses that are several hundred years old and imagining what life would have been like back when they were built.
On the weekend I decided it was high time I collected all the ripe passionfruit that were falling. There are at least 3 Passionfruit vines growing wild in various parts of our 1.5 acre block. The possums are getting alot of the fruit, most of which I can't reach. I removed the pulp from all of the ripe fruit and froze it in ice cube and ice block trays. I would like to try and make Passionfruit Butter sometime.
Until next time...Mel
