AT HOME: Oh, my gosh, we finished our new room!  And one busy weekend in June we moved all of the furniture in there, including three tall bookcases, four desks (two huge!), a cupboard, two computers, a little table for Lily&#8217;s desk, three [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week&#8217;s menu went to plan.  I froze some curry for another night, and some pasta sauce for this week.  I didn&#8217;t get to freeze vegie soup as the girls ate the leftovers when we went out on Saturday night.

Now my Mum is visiting, but our WWOOFer has left, so we&#8217;re feeding 3 adults and 6 children.
