christmas 2013


i figured i should have christmas pics up before may at least... last year we spent christmas on the beach, and this year we decided to spend it in the bush, in other words, at home in canberra. we were all three pretty worn out from moving, finishing up projects, traveling to europe and the u.s., running away for 24 hours (bob), and all we wanted from santa was REST!

rest and food. and when we weren't napping or catching up on 'game of thrones', we were cooking and eating and taking bad photos of our culinary delights.

first up... raspberries from our own backyard!


whenever the house has gone quiet, it usually means two of the three of us have snuck off for a nap.

 our christmas bush!

 christmas, à la provençale. why the aussies cook a ham in this heat is beyond me.

homemade christmas morning sausage swirls, a family tradition.

 our minimalist christmas

 my favorite gift, every year!


 preparing roast figs, also from our backyard!

 new year's day, 2014. kp tries his hand at black eyed peas.

 on our way to the pub for our first pint of 2014.

we call this bob's 'beat the heat' pose. kp has a whole series of them on his phone.
