Sourdough
I think I’ve mentioned before that I’m not much of a cook. I burn food, or I under cook it with great monotony. I might over season it, or leave it too bland. I do enjoy cooking if I can do it in peace and I even get some pleasure from cooking with the children. [...]

Impatient!
I’m waiting. Waiting, waiting, waiting. Waiting to start my new job, waiting to hear back about my placement, waiting to hear if we can buy a new house. I’m not good at waiting. Instant gratification is more my style. As soon as I hear the little sound that indicates I have a new email, I [...]

Toilet Training.
I have a confession to make. We never really toilet trained Willow. She pretty much just watched the bigger kids at childcare in the slightly undignified communal bathroom and took it from there.

Glutton for punishment!
Tuesdays are my day off, since that’s the day I was going to uni last year. These holidays I’ve been keeping Dexie out of FDC and Willow out of Vac Care and we’ve had some lovely days together. Often we’d catch up with friends but today I thought I’d take them to the Museum where [...]

In the city
I had to go into the city today for training – Child Safe Environments to be precise. So here’s a diet tip from me – do a full day’s training on child abuse and your appetite will be zero. Sometimes I think my job has hardened me, and it has, but it’s nice to feel [...]
