Five other uses for my 'Homemade moisturising body bar'
One of my most shared posts is my 'Homemade moisturising body bar recipe'. Have you tried it? It's good. I thought I'd share five other ways I use this body bar: #1. As a barrier to prevent henna dying my skin, when dying my hair with henna. I apply it along my hairline. It works a treat a...
thank you for making us more aware! is there somewhere we can find out what's endangered in our area?

How to make citrus beeswax candles
I’m embracing citrus season. We’ve been enjoying freshly squeezed orange juice and a range of lemon and lime desserts. I also have a huge container of lemon and lime juice ice cubes waiting to be tossed into hummus and other cooking. The downside of enjoying this bounty is that my compost bin is...
It's funny, I've seen raspberry like canes (that are very hard to whipper snip) and the flowers but never fruit in my garden. I'll have to keep a closer eye on them!!
Foraging Native Rasberry
I spotted some native raspberries a few weeks back when on a bushwalk. I tasted a few but found them rather tasteless. Back home I learnt that what I'd tasted was probably Rubus rosifolius, commonly known as Native Raspberry or Rose Rose-leaf Bramble. It's described as having 'edible but ins...
I'm in Brissie... I haven't but I'll have to check them out!!
Hope and Picnics
On Sunday a friend popped round to see how I was holding up. She had walked a similar path just over a year ago and she very kindly left with me a lovely book that helped her get through. There is no place like Hope - A guide to beating cancer in mind sized pieces by Vicki Gerard I want to sha...
