Last weekend we took the kids down for the first half of The Garden Party at the Orange Botanic Gardens, then arranged a babysitter for the later acts... it was great to drink some of my favorite local wines (Brangayne Sauvignon Blanc, Icely Rd Sauvignon Blanc and Rolling Sauvignon Blanc Semillon) while listening to music - including our highlights John Swan, The Whitlams and Jimmy Barnes...
Te next day we went down to Cook Park to see some of the brass band entertainment as part of the Brass Celebration .....
This weekend was spent strolling around the Central West Garden Expo and checking out the ScareCrow Competition...
Picking up some local fresh produce (only $2 for a small pumpkin or $3 for a large pumpkin).... we got a watermelon for $2 as well....
And testing out our newly aquired solar oven.....
I will give you a more detailed entry on this soon... its been fun playing with it....
yay for the solar oven!!! Looking forward to hearing more. What brand did you get?
ReplyDeleteBit the bullet and spent $$$$ - got a Tulsi Solar Oven (Made in India) - but to date have been cooking an evening meal nearly every day this week... and cakes, stewed fruit for our yoghurt etc... Got this one because it looked more sturdy and transportable - might drag it out camping... Will keep you posted....
