Day 10 - Rainy with a chance of meatballs...

The weather declared that Spaghetti & Meatballs was on the menu so I made Annette's recipe.
~
The start of the sauce - onion, capsicum, garlic & zucchini fried off in a pan.
~
Simmering away in all their tomatoey goodness.
~
Yum!
~
This is Brianna's first attempt at pavlovas (meringues) - they turned out brilliantly. She is using them in her Hospitality class tomorrow. Topped with whipped cream and a blueberry and maple syrup sauce.
~
She was pretty chuffed with them.

Week 2 (Day 10)
The weather was arctic this morning with high winds and rain so no walkies until later in the day - I got in 40 minutes.
~
Breakfast - my yummy porridge topped with banana, honey and LSA
~
Lunch - left over Tuna Bake and cauli/broccoli bake on one slice of Cape seed toast.
~
Snack - 1 apple and later some nuts, cranberries and blueberries.
~
Dinner - Spaghetti & Meatballs - very filling!
I had about 6 glasses of water during the day.
~
This afternoon I am making Oaty Cookies with dried apricot and blueberries - I'll send some to Kirby for uni snacks.
~
Have a nice day - I hope it's a little warmer for you than where I am!
Cheers - Joolz
