Rainy Night & Photo Contest
It's a gloomy, cool day in August. I am thankful for this. Our AC went out yesterday and won't be fixed until tomorrow morning. I thought last night would be a tossing, turning, sweating, no sleep type of night.
BUT

With our window open it turned out to be a perfect night.
I feel asleep to the soothing sound of rainfall and outdoor critter sounds,
muffled by our humidifier.

There was a cool breeze through the night
and into the morning.
and into the morning.
I slept well.
I wanted to sleep in.
What else is new... :)
I have a button! That's what's new! See my side panel! Haha.
Also, I want to take part in Ashley Sisk's In a Yellow House Photo Challenge.
This week is trees.
And finally, one of the recipes I tried out this week was Caterpillar Family's
Chicken Stir Fry Recipe. Click to get the recipe to learn how to make it!
A few pictures of the process...(I had to play with my new camera!)
A must try!

The August Chronicles: What's on your fridge?
Edition 3 and I'm getting more and more into the Fridge Chronicles. Not enough to be 'styling' the fridge (although, I know me so well, it will come!) but enough to get excited when fridge time rolls around each month. Yes, that makes me a total loser, but I'm okay with that. This month I was thoughtful enough to remove the chocolate stains around the door handle that have featured in the past two editions.
My neighbour Susan is insisting that we go and see this play in September. She's in her 70s, Austrian and let me tell you, when Susan insists something will happen, it will happen. A review is forthcoming.
I've seen the '4P' parenting course advertised here and there. The counsellor at the school is conveniently running one in September and I'll be attending. Have you done one of these or any other parenting course? What did you think?
Terrible photo - sorry about that. But this little magnet has been on the fridge since Maxi-Taxi was about 3 months old. It says "It had seemed like such a good idea 12 months ago."
Imagine me leaping with joy when Maxi-Taxi informed me that he'd 'won' something at the sports carnival. Ah, another 'participation' certificate. Well done, my boy, well done.
This is LOML's list of his favourite 'mama made' Italiano meals. It's a work in progress. A couple of weeks ago he suddenly started stressing that her recipes may one day be 'lost with her' and so began the list. Forget that she's only in her mid-sixties, fit as a fiddle and from a line of Italian peasant stock who believe dying in your mid-nineties is dying in your prime. This is too important to risk. I insist on being present when he has 'the conversation' with her.
So, what's on your fridge this month?
Join the linky as we chronicle the days of our lives like sands through the hourglass... Linky is open until the end of the month.

If only time stood still...
Our six week holiday with the family comes to an end tomorrow...how does time fly by so quickly? I guess we have just been having too much fun...I wish I could find a way to make time stand still!
Today we enjoyed a road trip, lunch at Bangalow, coffee at Salt and a drive through Byron Bay. We had fun exploring beaches and stopped to feed the lorikeets and eat ice cream before heading home for dinner. Time is so precious...and I don't want these little guys to change from where they are now. So many sweet moments to remember...
