Had a wonderful time at the Deloraine Show on the weekend, no Showman's Guild, just small, better priced rides and activities. Lots to see, Charlie the Horseman, 80+ year old axemen, medieval fighters, Paringa Archery, horses, horse dressage and the Home Industries were better than Burnie Show which is far larger. Great fun for Ethan, Amber and me.

On Monday, I made the best ever carrot cake. Everyone loved it so had to see if I could do it again. Used Spelt flour today and the result was just as good.

 

An update on the vegetable garden which is doing amazingly.

New pea and bean seedlings, lettuce ready for eating and pumpkins galore.

Potatoes doing famously along with the silverbeet and raspberries. Peach trees loaded again.
