The Hanging Pallet Garden
We moved into the new house in August and really I’ve been talking about “growing stuff” since I moved to Australia nearly two years ago, but after this most recent move I really started talking about it. I even grew (if you can call it that) with very limited success cherry tomatoes. It all went downhill when we took off for the US around Thanksgiving time. The automatic watering system failed and my poor plants went kaput.
Perth really is a difficult climate to grow the types of vegetables and herbs that I’m looking to grow. It is dry. It is hot and the soil is very sandy. Add to that a very small nearly non-existent space to plant things at the current house and well, I pretty much have the ultimate list of undesirables. We had to think outside the box.
Enter google and pinterest and that great world wide web we all love so much. Solution = HANGING PALLET GARDEN!

Chili Garlic Chicken Wings
Chicken wings are a great way to break up the chicken rut you might be in. They offer a different texture and flavor than your everyday breasts or thighs you normally serve. The skin crisps up so nicely and gives such a great crunch to this dish.

Welcome!
It’s finally here. It has been a long time in the making. No really, I have been talking about it for ages. There are notebooks and notebooks filled with scribble and notes and ideas and recipes. I thought long and hard about it all. Would I be able to do it? Would people want to read it? How would I feel if no one wanted to read it? Do I have anything worth saying that should be shared across the www? And so on and so on. Hours of research about what makes a good blog and how to write and what to write and don’t ramble and don’t write long posts and proof read, proof read, proof read. Do this. Don’t do that.
