Our district is looking superb with lots of activity happening as the Crushing rolls on. Keep a look out for the huge trucks bringing cane from Maryborough and Nambour up to the loco siding just along Goodwood Road, destined for crushing at Isis Central Mill.

Do you have a shrub in your garden that brings absolute joy when it’s in bud and then in flower. For the Little Cellar Rat is has to be RAPHIOLEPIS or INDIAN HAWTHORN. You wait in anticipation as the myriad of buds appear then for the full flowers to come. They look like mature apple or peach blossoms and they bring absolutely joy to the Heart! They come in White and Pink varieties…. TLCR has a white one that seems to have a spur of the pink. How fortunate!
ciao tutti! The swathe of fog made for a magical start to life on the Hill here this morning.

If you’re motoring around our district at present, keep an eye out for locos/ cane trains carrying harvested cane to Isis Central Mill. The countryside is an ever changing scene with fields taking on a cleanly shaven look as the sweet grass is cut for another year, leaving a distinct aroma of sweet brown sugar and molasses in the air.
ciao tutti! Bit of a breeze here this morning and maybe some rain on the horizon. No problemo, just pack the brolly and an extra jacket.

If you’re not motoring around the district, put that oven to work. Throw some chunks of sweet potato, capsicum and eggplant in the oven, crank the heat up and enjoy that caramelisation process filling the kitchen with a delicious aroma.
Make them the basis of a warm vegetarian winter salad. Splash on some aged balsamic for the acid contribution, S and P , crumbled feta and toasted walnuts. buon appetito!

ciao tutti! Bit of a chill here this morning and maybe some rain on the horizon. No problemo, just pack the brolly and an extra jacket. Just the sort of weather for some Spicy Pumpkin soup made with green Thai curry in it of course! The Little Cellar Rat bought a Kambrook Soup maker a few years ago and it is magic. Bung everything in, set and forget! Tasty and nutritious at the same time, how good is that!

ciao tutti! Absolutely glorious morning here on the Hill. Crisp start followed by crystal clear day. Just love living where we do!
Pack a little grazing board to have on the verandah or in the garden in the sun after your wine tasting. Wine available by the glass or bottle to go with your little feast. The Little Cellar Rat’s DUKKAH is back on the shelves. Super for sprinkling over roasted fingers of sweet potato, capsicum and eggplant.
