To The Rock and Back

The family is on the road again, for our yearly trip into a never, never that is beyond our own.

After drenching calves, trucking a couple of steers to the sale yards (nothing like last minute farming decisions) and throwing the last minute items in the Engel, we finally headed off late last Monday morning, leaving the eldest son at home to house/farm sit. 

The Billy's Boiling with Mandy Magro

Hi and thank you for agreeing to come to morning tea or ‘smoko’ with me! It’s really very kind of you to consider joining in, as I’m hoping that this is another method by which we can get all our readers to know more about all our authors!

On my blog we’re having are having a metaphorical cuppa and cake on our farm at Tinamba in Gippsland, Victoria. Imagine, if you will, we're in my kitchen, which is pretty comfortable and welcoming (even if I say so myself smiley). It’s got an old and battered Baltic pine table (previously the floor of an old woolshed in NSW), hardwood ladderback chairs, there are some gorgeous, old fashioned china mugs sitting ready for our cuppa .

And, of course, ‘the billy’s boiling’…

The Billy's Boiling with Fiona Palmer

What better excuse for a smoko break than a visit from one of your mates. And what is better during smoko than sharing a few of our favourite things (and I'm not just talking about the cakes here!).

I'm Home

I’m home. The whirlwind touring to promote my debut novel, Bella’s Run … has finally come to a halt. I got to meet some absolutely lovely people, visited some beautiful places, met new friends and caught up with old ones. We sincerely had a ball even when driving through flood water in Southern NSW.

 

 

I know we shouldn’t have but where else were we to go .. the book tour must go on!
