Phew, glad that June has left the building. It has been a right stinker, let me tell you. And crazily wet here in sunny Brisbane. Normally winter is our dry season, but we've had heaps of rain over autumn and winter this year. The backyard never seems to dry out. And the local wildlife is a bit miserable about the whole thing :=)

In My Kitchen:
 |
| there was more beetroot-pickling (thanks Roving Haggis for the recipe) |
 |
| and crazy fermenting cabbage (thanks neighbour for doing the pounding) |
 |
| and we had a poor bedraggled wee possum getting out of the rain (oops! again) |
 |
| of course there was chocolate, and hot chocolate mix |
 |
| and Greek citrus salt and olive oil with mandarins |
 |
| more herbs and spices from Herbie's |
 |
| delicious! Rhubarb - is she a fruit or a vegetable in your mind? |
 |
| I bought another wee spoon! Carved from Tassie tiger myrtle, by Carol A. Russell |
 |
| Emma Bridgewater ceramics from Mr P. (for my birthday) |
 |
| a cookbook from the cuz! |
 |
| the curveball! a gorgeous wooden scallop by John Woolrych |
(Just a quick FYI: I will be having medical treatment in July most likely, so I will schedule a brief IMK post just in case I am not up for it later on. So please do add your link in August! It will cheer me up!)
