So… life at Norwich House these days is all about dead rats and maggots. Really really stinky rats. Really gross maggots.
Best I spare you the details! (and photos) (only got 10 people coming to stay in around two weeks… brilliant!!!!) erk
I just need decomposition to hurry up a little! (The joys of a 100 plus year old house huh??)
On a brighter note:
Remember yesterdays unexpected potato haul?
Well… we wrapped the two biggest ones in foil and put them in the fire to bake – they turned out pretty perfect!! Def. going to do that again!
I also made chocolate chip biscuits (cookies) which really helped make the house smell a LOT better. No photos yet… 🙂
And I finally went back and put that black edge around the multi-coloured shawl which I think finishes it off rather nicely!
Hope your day is less stinky than mine!
Cheers!
Sympathy re: the dead rat situation. And kudos on the finished shawl – it’s brilliant!
I really just wanted to let you know how much I LOVE your blog – the photos, the humour, Ruby, Pip, your cleverness in the kitchen and with your crafts. Love, love, love all of it. Thank you for sharing.
Hi Leigh!! Thank-you for your message! I really appreciate knowing that you are enjoying the ramblings from Tasmania!
Todays dead rat smell seems to be slightly on the improve!! (But lets not talk about the maggots huh??) 😀 😀
Cheers!
