But, as we never eat mayonaise, whether bought or home-made, my choice would be salted butter.<br />Today I planted 14 tomatoe plants in our garden. <br />More will follow next week.

I grow a lot of tropical plants , palms , frangipani, Jasmine as well as other types of plants . The weather is cooling down but the days still reach up to 24c. The cold weather will be here soon though ! Yuck ! It's not my favourite season . Spring here is beautiful . Our town is called the Garden City and has most of the streets love bed with jacaranda trees and other large trees . We have some beautiful botanical gardens and on the east side of town have the most incredible escarpment views looking down from atop the Great Dividing Range. I live in a beautiful part of the world xxxLeishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550858502158736036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809691927256994512.post-43391049760659382572016-04-29T16:53:28.076-07:002016-04-29T16:53:28.076-07:00No Angie it does not snow here .

Most of Queensland is sub tropical and tropical . The further north go the hotter it gets . Far North Queensland is the tropics . I live in a large town on the top of The Great Diving Range .

Does it snow where you live? If I'm not wrong, you are located much closer to the equator than I am.

A BLT is a bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich with salt and pepper and mayonnaise. One of the greatest fast foods invented. Let me know if you try one.Angie's frugal Househttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07501238383146880477noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-809691927256994512.post-70657331280966564432016-04-29T11:14:30.808-07:002016-04-29T11:14:30.808-07:00Could I just make a little contribution on the iss...Could I just make a little contribution on the issue household chores? For me it is most <br />important to AVOID work. That means for example: One should not fill rooms with unnecessary<br />objects or decorations. Enjoy simplicity ! That gives you more time and freedom and less<br />to clean. Of course we have our favorite objects (maybe hand-made by grand-children), I do not mean those. And I also find it so helpful when things have their permanent place where<br />we can get them at once. No time wasted.<br />But, finally, - what is a BLT sandwich ? Maybe B for bacon?

It will be interesting to know how much you will save by Christmas. I have been sorting through my clothes and getting put my winter clothes. I would really like to cull my clothing to those items I love and wear often . I've also mulched my garden beds and hanging plants and given some of my plants a trim. Last week I pruned all the old leaves from my Bird of Paradise plants and collected a whole green waste bin of old leaves. The front garden looks much tidier now. Have a great weekend Angie xxxLeishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10550858502158736036noreply@blogger.com
