Lovely misty morning here – how good is it to see everything turning green again? Can but hope that the rain will continue.

Here are a couple of photos from the front deck this morning – old Tom in the dog’s bed surveying his domain, and the chooks and ducks contentedly foraging their way around the paddocks.

And for a little early morning baking, a breakfast “focaccia” topped with homemade soft curd cheese, roasted red capsicum, tomatoes plus roasted pumpkin and sweet potato.

Just the thing to provide the energy for preserving the last of the tomato crop today, and make Ajvar, and raspberry jam and just for the fun of it, develop a recipe (hopefully) for buckwheat and millet bread.
