It's the Middle of July 2017!

Hi All 

Is it just me or is this year FLYING by? 

Saying that - I do feel July is taking a loooong time ... (Which is not such a bad thing) 

But Yesterday marks ONE month that the kids have been on school holiday and we have another month and a half of holidays to go ... It's great that they on holiday, but with temperatures reaching 35-40 degrees some days, and the only place to be is inside with A/C or at the pool, and the heat is affecting everyone's mood (especially temperamental Az) - I then think, 'The Southern Hemisphere has the best weather and the best school holidays'! :) 

I am also feeling sad tonight - as last year this time the girls and I were ready to go flying back to Sydney for 3 weeks - and that holiday feels like a lifetime ago (although I still dream of the food, friends, family and laughter - in no particular order :) PG next year we will be there. 

We have actually had a good month, the kids did 2 weeks of Hebrew camp (I am always in awe of the Rebbetzin here and all that she does, with no help) ... Then last week they both started music. dance, drama camp .. The camps are in the morning, chill over lunch time heat at home, and then we head to the hotel pool down the road and spend 3 hours in shade / swimming pool. 

The weekends we have been exploring the rocky beaches and sea .. which is really nice! 

Little Miss Azi has never been too keen on the water, but in the last month she has become a little dolphin - first one in the pool, diving, going under, chatting to everyone - it is a joy to watch! 

I am getting some Thermomix demo's and building my little team. Really enjoying meeting different people, hearing stories and recipe testing for the workshops./

Before the holidays we did a great Breakfast workshop. Lots of delicious recipes that can be used for breakfast / snacks. If you would like me to e=maiol the recipe book, just reply. (It is 11000k, so didn't want to attach to this mail for everyone)  .. But happy to share the recipes, 

So that's us - from this Little Rock. 

Looking forward to hearing from you
