Does anyone else put themselves to sleep at night wishing for fairies to bring you new teeth…or make you skinny. Or perhaps a magic cleaning wand? I do, wow, that would be sofa king awesome. Most nights it’s something along those lines, and picturing how awesome it would be!

Go to check the PO box this morning, and there is a parcel shoved in there. Wasn’t expecting anything, but often get strange random things showing up. It’s addressed to Emily? Who would be sending her anything?? So of course I have to investigate..it could be drugs or porn or something!!

Rip it open, and what do I find…a wand (for some reason my fingers just keep wanting to type wanda?) ZOMG..it must be mine, addressed to her by mistake. I have only been wanting one for EVER. It’s awesome..has sounds effects and a blue light on the end.

Have gotten it home, and the damn thing is borked! Doesn’t clean or fix ANYTHING!? On closer inspection of the package, found a letter to say Emily had won a wand in the Wizards of Waverly Place wandathon.

Disappoint guess I’ll have to keep up with the housework manually for a bit longer..I’m sure mines on it’s way.

For months…and MONTHS we have been hearing endless babble about half a bloody cow and sheep. Some guy at work had been telling him, anyone would think it was sort of new PS3 game or something the way he went on about it.

We finally got around to getting a freezer big enough for all this dead animal so we put our order in and I went off to pick it up today.

The way it works, you ring up and order what you want on Monday. You have to order in bulk so you have to get a full sheep, or half a cow or pig. But you can go halfs with someone, like we did with the cow and he will half everything for you.

The animals are all grown/raised by him, and are slaughtered on the Thursday. You then go Friday afternoon or Saturday morning and he will cut it all in front of you, so you get the cuts, thickness etc just the way you like it.

I took the kids with me, was very interesting to see it done. Amazing the way he wielded the knife about.

t-bones

We have soo much meat, I honestly don’t know what to do with it. I am sooo sucky at cooking, we can’t have meat and 3 veggies with all of it. We had some sort of steak tonight (I am in trouble for not getting it labelled…have bags and bags of..cow?) and it was amazing, so tender and juicy..and that’s with ME cooking it. Imagine what it would be like if you knew what you were doing

Bits and pieces that we didn’t want, like the ribs, shin etc..the meats cut off along with other bits and made into mince…LOTS of mince. There was 24kgs all up!

Anyone able to tell me what’s what, cause I have no bloody idea LOL

Prices and phone, he’s near Badgerys Creek if anyone in Sydney is interested

Dominic is such a lovely bloke, we will definetly be be getting all our meat here from now on!

Now any suggestions what the hell I can do with all this meat..I seriously need cooking lessons
