Good Food and Family

It has been a very interesting couple of weeks since I blogged last.    We visited my brother and his wife for a weekend of story telling , reminissing , wining and dining. 

They had recently travelled to Tasmania and bought back this beautiful book for us .  

Then my very clever sister in-law cooked up a storm from the sea.....Not too bad since they live in western Queensland. We were so full and so spoilt.....yummmm........

My brother does a little crabbing when he goes to the coast so we had the rewards of that also. LOVE fresh mud crab! 

While we were there I delivered a little quilt for their daughter and son in law who are about to have their first baby next month. ( I started it at our Warwick retreat)

Such an inspirational book...especially when you can get the oysters...

With watermelon, onion, white wine vinegar and lime juice.....delish

Freshly caught muddies........mmmm.......

Trio of seafood

 Some nice days to enjoy a little drink in the garden......  "Tess" loves to go driving in the golf buggy .... perhaps her name should be "Daisy"   

A cot size quilt for my niece's  baby...  Just love the tractors!
