A safe and frugal way of keeping slugs and snails off your plants is to sprinkle eggshells around your plants. The eggshells will not harm pets and add nutrients to the soil.

After all the Christmas and New Years festivities my kitchen was in need of a good clean up. The rarely used bowls and platters are put back safely in the back of the cupboard. The fridge has been purged of all left overs and the containers have been washed and put back in their cupboards. And last years lunchboxes and drink bottles have been purged from their cupboard making way for this years new lunch accessories. I finally have my kitchen back again

Tina over at Mummified Times Five has started Point Form Thursday and I thought I’d join in considering I haven’t had internet access for the last couple of days.

So here we go:

• I was disconnected from the internet for 5 days, 20 hours, 37 minutes and 4 seconds…. but who’s counting!
• I can NOT function properly without the internet!
• We moved house - didn’t move far though, we moved just up the street!
• The new house has a bigger kitchen
• The new house has an ensuite
• The new house has a bigger lounge room
• I like the new house
• I am sick of unpacking boxes
• I am sick of cleaning the walls in the old house
• I have 1000+ items in my Google Reader so guess what I am going to be doing for the next couple of hours?
