Summer fun

It's been full on at The Glorious Tangle with guests, gardening, music, swimming, making cheese, cooking, dancing and going to concerts.

Here are some photos of Angie and Rowan cooking (in a light rain, hence the umbrella) and Angie with the Brazilian cheese we made, it's hard to see white cheese on white plate, but was tasty.


My niece Ruby and her friend Sofie from Sweden were here and we took them to a KatchAFire and Black Seeds concert, thanks to Sarah and Craig (Black Seeds manager). Sofie was pretty excited to meet some of the Black Seeds on her 21st!






I've spent this morning watering and pulling kikuyu grass and after vacuuming and a computer tidy up I'm off to a video editing course.  I did one a documentary making course a few years ago but need HELP with the Adobe editing software so Monday through Thursday this week that is what I'll be doing.



I had a guest a couple of days ago... a surprise guest I hadn't seen in 14 years or so..an Israeli woman from Auckland, Tame Vazey... who has opened up a new group of friends here in Waipu with middle eastern ties who make delicious food and have built a Moroccan castle up in the hills.  I am so often amazed by the circles life makes here in New Zealand, but more about that later as I must concentrate on getting ready for my course tomorrow.

Spare a thought for the poor Aussies and Brazilians and the rescue crews helping them.  What a nightmare mother nature can be.

Ciao for now,
