... selling your house.
The guy buying our house has crashed the contract because he couldn't get the finance organised. Bugger.
So we are back at sqaure one. Some advertising will happen this week, we're probably going to have an open house on Saturday (joy of joys) and more people traipsing through the house. Never mind, these things happen I guess!
Well my long weekend was BUSY! Saturday was the usual cleaning, washing, groceries, plus I drove all over town trying to find two outdoor braziers for our BBQ that night. Man was that a mission - apparently everybody in Brisbane wants to buy a brazier at the moment, and everywhere was sold out!! Finally got some though, and then spent the rest of the day cooking and preparing for the BBQ. It was a great night though, and a nice way to say 'farewell' to the house (even though it looks like we wont be moving just yet!!).
Sunday I spent most of the day oiling timber battens over at our new house. (these are for timber screening for the new fence), and Monday we started moving boxes of crap. BF cleared out the whole garage, and I cleared out most of the wardrobes in the spare bedrooms. I cant believe how much junk we have! LOL!
And with all that went on over the weekend I forgot to drink all my water again - and that just made me feel awful - dry mouth, tired, annoyed with myself!! Anyway, I'm back on track with my small daily goals now so its all good.
I will try to post a photo later of some veges I pulled from the vege garden on Sunday. mmmmmm we had a salad made from home grown lettuce, silverbeet, tomato and beetroot on Sunday night! YUMMO!
Does anyone know what to do with beetroot to make it taste good?!! :) I boiled it like a potato, then let it cool. Peeled the skin off, sliced it and put it in my salad. And I have to say it tasted pretty bland, nothing like the tinned stuff you buy. Think I might need to put it in some vinegar or something...?
Thats about it from me! I havent been around much lately, but I'll try to catch up with everyone's blogs soon...

RE: Beetroot, you should soak it in vinear & a little pepper to make it taste better.
The tinned stuff tastes so good because it is full of sodium!!
And SUGAR!!
A lot of people don't like the taste of fresh beets, I love them, try adding vinegar, salt, pepper and a little stevia.
Sorry to hear the sale of your house fell through, before you know it you will have sold it,
Enjoy the rest of your week.
Those veggies look awesome YUMMY!!
Thanks for the beetroot tip Tracey, I'll have to give that a go!
Ali I might have to send you some beetroot!! I will try again with yours and Tracey's suggestions, hope they taste a little nicer! Yeah bummer about the house, but I guess it wasn't meant to be.
