School Holidays

The girls have had vac-swim this week and last which has given their holidays a bit of structure. In an entirely flukey bit of coincidence, both their lessons are at the same time which gives me a beautiful 40 minutes of uninterrupted swim time. I have been doing 1km of unco breaststroke every morning.
Here is Freya demonstrating 'butterfly', with top camera-work by her mother (demonstrating that she still doesn't know how to properly work the Nikon).

The Wet has come to TP. Post-Heidi we have had beautiful hot and sunny mornings and afternoons where phenomenal electrical storms fill the creeks in minutes. F and E love playing out in the rain and I love that they are a couple of Pilbara ferals, but today I called them in because the lightening was literally too close to home!

The wet weather has prompted comfort cooking.

Tea cake with 7x the amount of cinnamon sugar suggested in the recipe. Another Kitchen-Aid production.
