Flowers

My Digital Shop

Here is a lovely display of a Basket Flowers that I made for a special occasion.

Sometimes it is good to use Artifial flowers if you do not have fresh ones, they can also make a really good display to give as a gift or to decorate your lounge room.

Fish for Friday!

Very pretty Basket of Flowers sitting on my outside settee. They are mixed blossoms, some from my garden and some are artifiial but they make a lovely display.

*****

Well – what about Friday? – so a good idea is to make up a basket or vase of flowers for yourself to look at indoors for the weekend. Or maybe give a gift of flowers to give to a friend. Just a few from the garden with some leaves would make a lovely arrangement. Alfoil is nice to wrap around the stems to make a bunch look more special. If you are going to a friends for tea or coffee it is lovely to take a small posy for your hostess.

*****

Fish for Friday is a nice idea, so that once a week you would be getting a fish dinner, because as we all know fish is very good for us and most times we forget to eat it.There are several ways to cook it but best to cook the way you especially like it. However here is one way to try.

Fish Nuggets:

A nice piece of white Cod or similar fish. Cut into dice about one inch squares.

Put flour into kitchen bag with a sprinkling of white pepper, sprinking of garlic, small pinch of turmeric. Then add the diced fish and shake around in the bag till all are coated.

Cook in a small amount of your favourite oil in a frying pan, turning over so all get a nice brown colour and cooked. They do not take long to cook in the hot oil.

This is an Oil painting of a Scary Fish that I painted, thought you may like to see it!

Do you like Poetry?

What a lovely Basket of Flowers brought home from a Special Service at our Church.

*****

Flowers are Beautiful, many people have fond memories of certain ones. Just think of what particular ones that you like. Maybe put one in a vase today in the Kitchen or your Living Room. Flowers are lovely to have in any room in the house, they make the room feel special.

*****

We have a New Book just published to look at. It is a Poetry Book plus Verses and Short stories to read. It is available now on the Amazon site. Just click on the Link below and it will show you what it is all about.

https://rb.gy/j1rrg2

I hope you enjoy some of the writings in the book!

Here is a one of the writings from the book on Page 66.

The Wind is Blowing.

The Wind is blowing the leaves are flying. It is so gusty the Wind today.

Let us watch as it blows things away. To stand in the midst of the Wind is great,

to feel it move around your body. Also to blow through your hair. Where did it come from?

Where does it go to? We can never know. Listen to the Wind in the trees.

The trees seem to love it as they sway back and forth with their branches.

You cannot touch the Wind but you can feel it when it blows against your body.

Sometimes it can try to blow you along. Then other times it is just a gentle Breeze.

I love to hear the rustle of the leaves in the trees. To watch them move back and forth like dancing to the Wind.

This is a Painting that I did of a windblown tree here in North Western Australia.

It’s nice to Work!

A Lovely arrangement of Real Flowers from my Garden plus Artificial ones make up this pretty picture.

Do you think it is nice to work? Well it all depends on what sort of work it is of course. We are all meant to work for our living not just to rely on others to supply us with whatever we need. Unless of course we are unable sometimes in our life to be able to. Then we must rely on others to help us. But if we are able bodied sometimes we can choose the work that we like to do. To be self employed is great but to work for someone or an organization then we should do our best for them and feel a sense of achievement of our work. Remember they are paying us wages so we can live life.

What a joy it is to do some work that we really like, maybe Craft work that we can sell and really enjoy doing it. Two of the things that I like to do are: Writing and Painting. So will put a poem here that will be in my next book (hopefully) plus I can put a Painting on to show you. I have had Exhibitions on an off for quite a few years… Yes, that is work but it is work that I can enjoy. Am hoping you can enjoy some of the work that you do, especially if you are working for someone or helping them.

So it can be nice to Work!

Here is a Poem:

* Today *

Today will never come again, so what are we going to do? It gives us time to think for a while of what a lovely day it could be. First let us think of our days that are past, they seem to have gone so very fast. But today we can do something different again. Something special just for today. Maybe phone a friend and have a chat. This maybe our last day, fancy that. However we may have many more days to come. Each day will come – never to return. Because Tomorrow will be another day to treasure. Today will be gone and when – Tomorrow comes it will be called Today!

Here is a sample Oil Painting of my work that I did sometime ago, along the Fascine near where I live.

Cyclone

What a lovely Hanging Basket of plants and flowers, which was in our back garden.

This time of the year (January) we are watching out for a Cyclone that is coming down from the North along our coastline. Hoping of course that it will go out to sea and fizzle out with no damage to our towns dotted along the coast of N.W. Australia.

All things like hanging Baskets for instance are a hazard and need to be removed before they get blown about by the Cyclonic winds and Tropical rain. There is a lot to do when Cyclones are about so that we can keep our houses and properties safe, like putting away anything that is likely to be moved by gale force winds.

Most people already know now how to prepare but it is good to get new information from our radio’s or television Weather Forecasts when a Cyclone is approaching.

*****

It is nice to sit and read while waiting for a Cyclone – (that is when you have done everything necessary to be prepared)

So will put a couple of links on here for you to consider:

The book ‘Jessie’s Story’ is about my life, I am the baby in the Photo on the Cover of the book. It has a bit of History of my life during the Second World War and different places that we have lived in before and coming to Australia. Where I now live, having emigrated in 1973. I have had excellent reports of interest in this Book. I hope you can enjoy reading it.

*****

The next book is about two horses that fall in love and is an excellent book for all young Horse Lovers. Emily likes to sit and read as you can see. The book is available from Amazon site: Here is the Link: https://amzn.to/3rpA17F

*****

Here is a Poem for today:

Lunch Time:……………………….

It’s nearly lunch time now and what have I done? Nothing much it seems under the Sun. But I did get up and not stay in bed. Mainly because this body needs to be fed. So up I got to start off the day, to get washed and dressed. We must get that out of the way, before we think of Breakfast. Now what shall it be? Something cooked or something on toast? Maybe some fruit or cereal as well as the toast? Goodness me the time has flown.

Never mind, it will be Lunch time soon..

*****

Romans: Chapter 1 verse 16: For I am not ashamed of the Gospel of Christ.

Baked Egg Custard

What a pretty Basket of Flowers. The Daisies are artificial – all the rest are were real from my garden.

Today how about a Recipe for Baked Egg Custard?

Here we are then – this was one of my Mothers Recipes, very simple to make and can pop it in the lower part of the oven if you are cooking anything else so it does not get cooked too quickly. I used to like the taste of the Nutmeg that was grated on the top.

This is very nice for little children to eat, also for invalids as well as for us to enjoy.

Another thing you can do with this recipe is to put it into a pastry crust that has been partly cooked, then back in the oven for the Custard to set.

*****

Recipe: Baked Egg Custard.

Whip up 2 – Eggs. Cover with Cold Milk & Stir in 1 Tbsp. of Sugar.

Sprinkle a little Nutmeg on top. Cook in Slow Oven till Set.

*****

The Recipe can be found in our Recipe Book available as an eBook here is the Link.

“Carnarvon Favourite Recipes”

I hope you enjoy your cooking today.

*****

From the Bible….. John Chapter 12 verse 24.

I tell you the truth, unless grain of Wheat falls to the ground and dies, it remains only a single seed but if it dies, it produces many seeds.

*****

It makes you think of all the seeds that we plant they seem quite dead, lots of them we eat as food. The ears of Wheat, Barley and other grain seeds are often ground into flour for cooking etc., But think of the seeds of the flowers that have grown, even in the Basket of Flowers in the photo above. Those seeds would not have sprouted into those lovely blossoms if they had not been sown into the ground. So in the dark of the earth they begin to live and come alive bursting upwards through the soil, just a little tiny stalk at first, then come the leaves. What a joy to watch them grow from a tiny dead seed into a magnificent flower or even a tree.

Can you imagine our Earth without any plants and trees …… remember they all produce after their own kind. Just as we as humans produce after our own kind as human beings and the animals after their own kind, as the seeds are implanted into the females’ by the males.

Well, these can be my thoughts for the day.

*****

Here will put on a couple of Links for you to look at:

The book is filled with Pen/Ink Drawing of Cats from A – Z. An Interesting game.

A bit of History living during the 2nd World War as a child then more of my story.

As it is getting near Christmas I thought I would put this Bible Verse in about Jesus.

Matthew: Chapter 1 verse 21….

She will give birth to a son and you are to give Him the name Jesus, because He will save His people from their sins.

***

I am so glad that Mary was obedient, because if she had not given birth to Jesus where would you and I be today. It does not bear to think about it! Praise God today for the Birth of Jesus who also was obedient to Our Heavenly Father to the extent of dying on The Cross for yours and my sins. I Praise You Heavenly Father that You allowed Your only Son Jesus to come to earth to save us from certain death. Thank You that we choose to celebrate the Birth of Jesus Christ our Lord being born on this earth. Amen.

The above is taken from the book ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.

Here is a nice Recipe for you – it is in the e-Book – with lots of other tasty ones.

Cheese Dreams Recipe!

What a beautiful Bouquet of Flowers to Brighten our day

I thought we would start off with a Recipe today……. so here it is the Cheese Dream Recipe. You may have another name for it but this is what our family usually does call it. Hope you may like to give it a try.

CHEESE DREAMS:

2 – Slices Sandwich Bread. Cheese to cover on one Slice. Frying Pan. Oil for Frying.

Method:

Put Cheese on one Slice of Bread, Cover with the next Slice.

Cover base of Frying Pan with Oil, when Oil is hot carefully put in your Cheese Dream and fry until golden brown underneath then turn over and brown the next slice.

The Cheese will melt and be YUMMY !

If you like – you can sprinkle some mixed herbs on the Cheese before cooking, or sprinkle some Garlic on to the cheese for a different taste.

I like to sprinkle with the herb thyme, it goes very well when melted into the Cheese.

The above Recipe is in this Recipe Book; available as an eBook through this Link below.

Runner Beans?

Fresh Picked Brown Leaves with Artificial Roses.

They look lovely in this display ready to take to Church.

Would also make a nice presentation in your home or office for a few days.

***

How about a Runner Bean Recipe:

Runner Beans, Garlic Powder, White Pepper, Oil.

***

Wash, trim, and cut the Runner Beans (the way you like them). Put in a Microwave dish. Sprinkle with the Garlic Powder and White Pepper. Then drizzle small amount of your favourite Oil over. Shake it all about and cover to put in Microwave oven for about two minutes on high, or until they are cooked to your liking.

This is a quick and easy way to cook the Runner Beans and they taste really good. Remember do not add any water when you cook them this way.

***

  Poem: What is Time?

What is time? Time is to live. Time to die. Time to forgive.

Time to try. Time to laugh. Time to cry. Time to sleep.

Time to sigh. Time to eat. Time to sing. Time to pray.

Yes the time is now. To pray and praise God.

Any time is the right time, to Praise The Lord.

Time belongs to God. Time is Eternal

Time is forever. Time timeless. Time is Time past & present

Here and now. Time waits for no one

Time is all around us. Time quiet. Time you cannot hear

Time can heal. Time you cannot feel. Time you cannot see.

Time is like the wind. Time is ever present. Time has gone

Time is yet to be. Time is NOW.
