Dog Poo Balls

After doing the housework we headed out to The Natural Foodstore (awesomeness) to do the shopping, but on the way remembered that the markets were on at The Big Pineapple, so we headed over for a look-see. After lots of fun and excitement we headed to NFS again and found it was super packed with busy shoppers.

I waited in line with Asher lying on the floor tired and collecting dried ginger sweets from the beneath the bulk bins (the same floor that left his feet and knees black lol!). Then I realised that I had forgotten to get the water bottle filled with spring water, which necessitated another long wait in line. The ladies commented how calm I seemed which was a nice compliment. I was having fun :)

The next day was Mother's Day, and Asher and I had a ball making Dog Poo Balls, one of our fave treats while Stoinkey just poinked around being cute and getting lots of hugs and kisses and showering us with the usual smiles <3 LOVE!

Cambodian Food

Life with a 3 1/2 month old baby and a 3 3/4 year old boy is always busy. Here we are having lots of fun preparing Cambodian food so that it was ready to go quickly once our friends arrived for dinner.

The inspiration comes from a Cambodian cookbook called "Food for the Soul". Funds from sales go to orphans in Cambodia. I rarely cook exactly to recipe, and that is the purpose of this blog: To give others ideas and inspiration that will work in their own kitchens.

Thanks to The Bent Banana and The White Magnolia florist for letting me film in their shops.

Enjoy! :)
