A Giraffe at the Ubizane Wild Life Reserve

A team attempt at making some sarmies

A throw I am busy with and all this was done during the
long trip too and from Hluhluwe Natal

This is the body of the Spitting Cobra, a very dangerous snake, and its head
was held firmly by me inside the bin. It came into
daughters house while I was sitting and watching TV with
Matthew and daughter and hubby was shopping.
Luckily for me they were nearby when I phoned
to tell them that there is a snake inside the kitchen
under the kitchen cupboard.
Its amazing at the small space it slipped into.
Son in law had to dismantle the whole cupboard to
get to the snake.

Yummy recipes here


http://diaryofabushchef.blogspot.com  This is such a great site to visit with all the nice recipes that are available here and also some interesting info about nature through the eyes of a chef.



What have we been doing?

Have been busy with so many things and not much to show. I am busy with 2 jackets and also being assistant to hubby doing some outside work on ladders and I for one do not like heights and also hate to climb ladders and as kids always did looking for every excuse that I could come up with why I do not want to help. For one I which always ends up being the helper gets some sort of injury because of some mishap. ooooops sorry forgot so say what helper must do. hehehe
well at least yesterday went without a hitch but both have sore backs. hehehehe this repairing of things higher than windows is not for the elderley. 
At least I had some rest today as we decided to take a drive to Mooreesburg to get dog food, yes dog food. Then onto Vredenburg to get some bed linen and also have some KFC and esp icecream which is a great treat for us as we dont have much choices of take aways around in this small town of ours. Oh and not to forget to get the delicious chocs from Clicks. hehehehe Well we are now home and exhausted from just driving. I also get to do lots of crochet as there
are no sharp sewing needles around, incase one goes through some unforseen pothole of which there are not many around the west coast.
