Have just put a brew of green tea 'bucha' on......
I've had a few requests lately for this delight.
I used to make this in my early days, but preferred the taste when its made with black tea.
This first brew will be for us, as I want to make sure the taste and ferment is right before I spread its joy.
What do my kombucha loving friends think?.....

Poison beauty
My oldest bubba picked me a flower after we went to the dentist a couple of weeks ago, we took it home and popped it in a vase. It flowered for a day or so. I left the stem in the vase until today - it still looked 'alive' and happy.
I was about to throw it out when I noticed it had developed roots. What a pleasant surprise. Although it is only an Oleander (yes I know they are poisonous - had a chat with the wee ones about that afterwards), the gift behind it has meaning for me, so this baby will go into a pot and find a new home on our balcony....once its finally finished.
A small treasure can be found anywhere! What 'treasures' have you found lately?

Baked goodies
Baked these beauties today.
Banana and Ginger Loaf.
I sold these by pre-order through my Facebook page. My lucky local followers can enjoy the delights of my garden too.
I use my own homegrown banana's and ginger and the girls out the back provide the eggs, so lots of love and goodness into these.....oh and did I mention, they taste amazing!

Bee's
Last weekend I was lucky enough to visit King Creek Farm and assist Erik with his honey harvesting. What a great experience!
I did manage to get at least 12 bee stings in my valuable lessons but I would do it all again in a heartbeat. And I will be.....soon I will have my own bee's to keep me mesmerised and these babies will be coming from the farm.
He sells 100% pure local honey if you are interested, just pop over and I'm sure he can help you out.
Do you keep bee's? Or have you..... or want to?

Garden to Plate
When the goodness I've grown or raised from home ends up in our tummy's.....
From the garden to the plate proudly brought to you by our beautiful hens.
Tonight we had zucchini and kale 'egg pie' straight from our own little patch.
What goodness are you creating from your little patch?
