Rain, Fog And Sunshine

Tuesday 13th August, 2013

The weather has been so changeable lately.  One moment we are having downpours, fog and then a few days later we are experiencing spring weather where it's even warm enough to go down to the beach for an icecream.

Which is exactly what we did on Sunday after having gone out to lunch with Robyn and Bob.  We've only got a few weeks left of "Split the Bills" and so we are making the most of them.

Last Thursday the new air conditioner was installed.  We now have to wait for some hot weather so that we can test it out.

This country is in election mode.  We go to the polls on September 7th to elect a new government.  The election was announced last Sunday week ago and I am already sick of the propaganda we are hearing on the radio and television not to mention the junk mail being delivered to our letter boxes by the various parties.  

So far not one of the major parties (Labor or Liberal) have given me a reason to vote for them.  It's the 'same ol same ol' spin.

Robyn made these Greek Almond biscuits.  They were so delicious, and exactly the same as what you buy from a Greek cafe.  She said she got the idea from a Better Homes and Garden episode where "Fast Ed" made them.  She bought the magazine to get the recipe.  We're hoping she makes them again.
