More rain
The deluge has returned. We are all bummed as rain is forecast for the next 3 days and the kids' school fair is on Saturday-rain or shine. The kids all look forward to this all year. It's a great little happening. There are rides already all set up in the school ground. You know, the old country fair kind of rides. I'm signed up for three shifts of stalls -face painting, doughnut decorating and lemon sips (lemon halves with sugar straws). I also have to make something for the bake sale so I thought I'd go with Nettie's FUDGE recipe- super easy and yummy. Rain will just make it not quite so fun. Matt and Oscar are off to Hartford on Saturday for a big rugby tournament which will also (hopefully ) go ahead rain or shine. Being an Aussie I know it's wrong to complain about the rain, but if it could just stay away for Saturday I would be happy.

Yes you are an Aussie , and therefore rightly should not complain about the rain, but even big tough Aussie blokes have been known to complain about rain if it is predicted in Melbourne for the last Saturday in September or even worse...heaven forbid, Boxing Day.
ReplyDeleteSo a bit of specific weather complaining is sometimes acceptable.
PS Even, can you believe this-- Wentworth Show Day
ohh wont Mum be pleased! That fudge is BAD when there are left overs! Bad! Im sure you will sell it all so you will be safe. Just dont lick out the bowl!!!!!
ReplyDeleteThe idea of lemon sips is interesting...I hope you take some photos because it sounds really country -style.
ReplyDeleteNo Mum, no photos-I'll be too busy and have enough to lug around.
