Hello...it's May

Ok I'm back.
I mean where back!
Yes I have been slack but I've been trying to juggle, not the soft round balls either, but life like all of us. 
Soooo I think at the moment I've got that juggling thing at a good spot. 

Any way how are you?
How are you enjoying the produce?

One story I wanted to share is that of the Brussels Sprouts. The last few weeks we have been enjoying these little green gems. Well they come from a man called Sam. He grows then in Narre Warren, which is southeastern of Melbourne. He picks and bags them himself in lovely hessian bags. It has been lovely to support him and his big smile that greets Shanaka at 3.30am.
A few weeks back Anne sent us a delicious link to Braised Brussels Sprouts. http://smittenkitchen.com/blog/2011/11/dijon-braised-brussels-sprouts
We tried this at Spikes house and loved it!
At Scouts house they like to roast them in the oven with some oil and salt for about 45mins. They come out nutty and soft.

Here is a little snap shot at some of the goings on from us. 

Until next time
