Bathtime for 2 unlucky Leuradales


Hi hi everyone it's me Tess. I was given a bath today and I didn't like it one bit........
Noah: The only reason you were captured and bathed Tess is because YOU STINK.............What on earth did you roll in?????
I, on the other paw smell wonderful, so why did I have to
have a bath.............lord !!!!
What are you looking at Willow??
Not happy!!!!

On a cheerier note, I love to play this game with Bryan


We hope all our maties living in the Northern Hemisphere aren't suffering too badly from the cold. I wish you could all come visit us in Leura. It's warm !!!!

Have a good weekend

Leuradales welcome in 2010

G'day blogging maties
First of all I just want to say how much I enjoyed the New Years chat weekend. It was great catching up with old and new friends.
2009 saw the start of D & B's cheesemaking venture. It started off really well. They made quark and then moved on to haloumi. Both worked out so well that when D made the second batch of quark she was shocked that it failed miserably. She still doesn't know what went wrong.
Here is Lucy looking bored watching the cheese being made.
Tess is a little more enthusiastic.

Our resident cheesemaker measuring out the rennet for the haloumi.


Voila, the haloumi almost ready to be put in a brine solution.


This is the first batch of quark they made. It worked out well and B used it to make a very delicious berry cake.

Making cheese has its advatages for us dales, especially when D stuffs it up. We each got a bowl of whey and what was left of the curd.



Finally a video of Tess & Willow playing bitey face.

D goes back to work tomorrow Jan 4. She is most upset !
