Don't you just hate when you have the whole day planned, especially when it's a day of fun, & one silly little thing ruins all your plans? Today was meant to be baking day. On the weekend dearest hubbie bought a small box of bananas. Oh my it's been so long since I have had a banana, at at least $5 a kilo they are a luxury we can't afford, but this box was cheap! The only problem is now I have bananas coming out my ears! So I compiled a huge range of delicious recipes using bananas, so I was looking forward to all the delicious goodies I was going to make. So you can imagine my immense disappointment, when after getting all the ingredients ready for my first baked goodie (Banana Caramel cream slice *drool*) I realised I didn't have any butter. I always have butter in the fridge but apparently in the haze of moving house this week I had used it & forgotten to replace it. Of course it couldn't have been coconut or chocolate that I was missing, but rather the butter which I need for every single recipe. Now normally that wouldn't be a problem as I would walk to the shop but after the hideous heatwave we have been having today has been nothing but rain.
No way am I walking to the shop in that weather! Even if it is only 2 blocks away!
Weather like this also means that my house is filled with wet washing hanging in odd places in the vain hope that they will dry.
On another note, we moved house on the weekend. Cue happy dance! We lost one bedroom but gained a veranda & heaps more room. Plus we now back straight onto the bushland and right behind the bushland is the lake. Considering we only moved five houses up the street, it is so much more tranquil.
On that note I'm going to spend the rest of the afternoon working on some Christmas presents, after all it's only 31 days until Christmas ;)
