around the house update

with being back at work now that my wrist has healed life has been busier. as a result i have not blogged much and wanted to give a quick update of things happening around the house.


i have been making these yummy breakfast muffins. banana macadamia almond meal. easy to grab in the morning on the way to work.


it was borris' birthday last month and i made him a raw vegan cacao ginger blueberry  birthday cake


it was actually really good and not too sweet, as i find most raw treats to be.
 

the garden has been really neglected but actually looks really good at the moment. lots of greens that need using up soon but most things are happy. i need to think about a new plant along the back fence as the passion fruit vine is coming to the end of its life and i want to try something different. any ideas?
 

my lime tree has so many flowers on it right now. last year we had the best crop of limes yet, can wait for more this year.


i recently planted out this garden bed outside my front door. there are a couple of plants that will get quite large, but for now it is low and sparse.
 

and its tricky to see but my blood orange tree in the front garden has quite a few blossoms on it right now too. Last year they all fell off, but maybe this year one or two will stay in and become yummy blood oranges. i have been eating lots of these form the markets lately. one of my favourite citrus.
 

yesterday i had some time in the garden, a put together about 30 pots of seeds in seed raising mix. tomatoes, tomatillos, basil, chillies, goldenberries. we will see if anything grows in the next couple weeks, if not then i can hit the nursery for some seedlings early next month.
