Sungei buloh and bollywood veggies

A lovely family trip on Saturday took us to the north of this little island to visit the mangrove swamps at sungei buloh.

This time we saw a crocodile in the water, some mudskippers at low tides, several large monitor lizards, cranes, herons, mud crab hills, wasps nests and more blood - starved aedes mosquitoes than I'd ever like to encounter again.

Apart from being eaten alive, it was lovely to be in the peaceful surroundings of the mangrove swamp. I love it up there.

Lunch at the quirky bollywood veggies was great, with the kids happily using the tree trunk mounted can crusher to flatten an entire crate of cans.

Blogging again

Back to the blog again. A new phone means I have access on the go once more, so I'll try and post a bit more often.

#plasticfreejuly

In the spirit of reducing plastic this month I've made a couple of great discoveries. A local (NZ) meat and milk provider, that I've been using for a couple of years on account of them selling milk in glass bottles which they collect and reuse, has started selling their meat in compostable packaging. Their meat also just happens to be mighty tasty and they deliver to your doorstep. A great way to reduce 5 or 6 plastic meat trays and associated cling wrap each week. This company are also great to deal with online https://eketahunacountrymeats.co.nz/

Happy days. They all seem to love it. I'm feeling so blessed to have three gorgeous kids.
