Breakfast Eggs Benedict this morning. I only make it maybe once or twice a year now.

The costs to make are getting up there.

It makes me appreciate eggs Benedict from a café more. Especially when they have a good hollandaise.

Sharing my bright spot in a crazy work day.

I snapped this picture at lunch time. I have 3 tuis that have taken up residence in my 1/4 acre suburban garden and on occasion 2 wood pigeons too.

When we moved here there were no trees.

Ps. This ornamental cherry tree was self seeded.

I was known as tx most of my work life except for now (strangely) and benechix is short hand for Eggs Benedict chick.

I made an awful lot of them over 10 years. Now it's just something I might do for a special occasion for family and friends.

Popped home at lunch. To my delight, my suburan garden had a visitor.

Managed to get a quick photo which was an added bonus.

Beautiful day to spend in the garden with my eager helper.

Frankie will be keen to help and I am sure she will find new treasures to bring inside when im not looking🐕🇳🇿

Such sad news. We lost our big dog Jack today. It was so very sudden and not something we expected. He was 9 years old.

My heart is breaking.

Frankie, the chihuahua keeps looking for him and barks at us to let Jack inside. We will all miss him.#Aotearoapets 🐶🐕🇳🇿

Wow. You nailed it!

I am so appreciative of the effort you have gone to. You found things that represent who I am.
I absolutely love the model and the waterbottle. I'll post a picture when they are done.

I can't wait to try the recipes for the good bitches baking. #MWSecretSantaAoNz

Oh i nearly forgot Jack the husky/german shepherd who thinks he's a chihuahua.

After todayb(easter sunday), I think I've done my quota of chocolate for the year. But I never say never.

I'm a coffee girl. #MWSecretSantaAoNZ

I thought I'd make my own chocolate easter eggs this year.

Except I bought only 1 set of molds so it's taken all weekend.

They will be tasty but definitely not the cheapest option.
April 13, 2025 at 6:46 AM
Haha... bit of fun. Managed to surprise my colleagues and make sure we started our month with a 😃 smile. Well worth it. Planning on surprising a few friends next.
