Almost holidays! Thank goodness!

Goodness me.  What a long term this has been.  So much has happened! It is definately time for a break!  So a break we will have!  We’ve got lots of adventures planned, so be sure to keep checking back to read all about our holiday adventures.

Challenge 1306:  In 13 minutes & 6 seconds today I managed 1.95km, and In 20 minutes & 26 seconds I managed to do 3km.  Only 7 minutes & 20 seconds off my PB (Personal Best) 

LOL Picture

And today I made some split pea soup!  I’ve never attempted to make it before but I rather think I did a good job for my first effort.  And Brooke & Kynan loved it!  This was my lunch!

 SPLIT PEA SOUP

  • 500g Green Split Peas
  • 2tsp Curry Powder
  • 60g margarine
  • 2 tsp chopped mint
  • 4 chicken stock cubes
  • 2 cups water
  1. Put peas into saucepan and cover with 6 cups of water.  Bring to the boil and simmer for approx. 35 minutes
  2. Add margarine and stir in curry powder & mint
  3. Cook gently for 2 minutes and add stock cubes.
  4. Add water until desired consistency is obtained

Also, is it bad parenting to let my 2 and a 1/2 year old watch TV and fall asleep instead of putting him to bed for a nap? (’cos that’s what I’ve just done!)

    Rebecca, were those split peas playgroup-fresh? :-)

    While I was playing a game with a sick Amelia, who was home from school, Michaela was eating some toast in the kitchen, just out of sight - or so I thought. It was very quiet, so I went to check on her. She was lying on the floorboards, with her plate of toast next to her on the floor, fast asleep! Is that bad parenting?
