Interior

leave a comment

With the windows installed they can start finishing off the interior. We are using 8″ of thermafleece wool insulation for the walls. Very easy to install and no protective gear needed. Followed up by plasterboard and plaster.

Squash

leave a comment

I planted too many squash plants in the poly tunnel, its now like some sci-fi experiment gone bad. The squashes have taken over, tendrils are going everywhere. I found this:

hiding down at the back, I don’t know how it got so big ( nearly 12″ by 7″), hopefully it will fit in the oven. We think its a spaghetti squash, but I didn’t make a note of what I planted where :-)

Spiced Apple Cake

leave a comment

I love my spiced apple cake, so I’ve put up a link to the recipe.

It was based off a “chuck em all in” recipe from Niki in Australia. Not having to peal your apples made me try it the first time. However I’m not used to measuring things in cups so I had to convert it, plus I didn’t have all the ingredients so I had to substitute a few things.
It works, and its delicious. I even made it for a friends engagement party where it was really appreciated.
