Caesar salad

Since we all love green salad, I decided to make Caesar salad for lunch that will help to cool us down on a warm day. I just bought a salad kit which includes, creamy caesar dressing, bacon flavoured bits, parmesan cheese and multi-grain croutons.  I only added fresh lettuce and slices of hard boiled eggs. yummy!

Ruby Tuesday 2

Here is my late post for Ruby Tuesday 2. This is a candid shot that I took last Sunday at the beach. It was the beautiful red hat which the lady was wearing that caught my attention.

Last Sunday

After a liesurely breakfast, I decided to visit my vegies garden. It has been awhile that I haven't  updated it because I have been working these days and don't have much time to clean and prepare it ready for planting. It has been left neglected for months, since the start of winter and this time that we are on Spring, the weeds grow rapidly and overrun the garden. I don't like the look of my garden this time, most of the plants have died.
 It was unusually  warm Spring day yesterday and I spent about an hour on my knees digging the weeds and did some cutting too because some of my plants at the side of the house need cutting already. I felt physically worn out afterwards. I haven't finished yet and have to do some more cleaning and cutting this coming long weekend. I want to get my garden ready for planting before summer starts.

School Holiday

It is the kids' two weeks school holiday starting this coming week and next week, me and hubby have decided to let David go  to a child care where he can have fun, do something and learn. For 2 weeks we booked him there because me and hubby will be both working during these days. They have plenty of holiday activities organized already, like doing craft, they also go to the movie and visit playground and parks  and such. David is so excited already. Dorothy on the other hand will be going to a tennis holiday clinic. She will start next week for 4 days since next Monday is a public holiday here. So I think this will be enough to keep them busy and occupied for this school holiday without the aid of tv and computer.

Camera Critters

 I have a few posts about our 2 cute guinea pigs already both in this blog and in my other blog. I hope you don't get  bored seeing another photos of them again, ..hehehe..for I  can't help it but to post  again another photos. We love them so much. They have been with us for more than 3 yrs now. We bought them from a pet shop when they were about 6 weeks old. For those who doesn't know them yet, the brown one is Brownie and the black with a bit of white and brown on the face is Lucky.

 They live in a big cage inside the house and we always give them fresh grass in the morning and afternoon. Sometimes, we put them outside to graze grass.

At the beach

These were taken last Sunday at Manly Beach.We are on our first month of Spring and the days are getting warmer, so I thought  to go out and visit Manly Beach. David came with me but Dorothy didn't come for she was invited to a friend's party. The weather was good but the water was a bit cold but David didn't mind at all. There were a few  kids who were swimming, some just playing around and having fun on the beach,  while some parents just soaked up the sun while watching their kids swimming and playing.

I love going to the beach,  the smell of the ocean air , reminds me of my place in the Philippines. I love to listen the sound of the waves, I find it so relaxing.

Last Sunday

It was supposed to be David's Taekwondo grading for this term but David decided not to go for the reason that there is still one grading technique that he is not comfortable to perform. The grading is for red and 2 stripes belt, he is a red with 1 stripe belter at the moment. He still needs to practice the one grading techinique  and we will wait and see by next grading which will be on  next term if he is ready for the 3 grading techniques.
