Birds having fun in the water on a hot afternoon.
Making sure they wash their wings (arm) pits too.
First one, then don’t forget the other.
Looking all lovely and disheveled after that J
Merry Christmas!
Merry Christmas!
For Bulgarian Christmas Eve! The tradition is that for dinner there must be 5, 7 or 9 vegan meals. I usually strive to prepare 7. They are: bread with lucky charms/tokens; peppers filled with beans; dolmades with rice and raisins; oshav; salad; fruit;
pumpkin pie…….for more click

For
Christmas we prepare roast pork with pickled cabbage,
banica – pastry pie with feta cheese, pita – bread with lucky charms for
everyone at the table baked inside, cake or other type of dessert.

Happy New 2022 Year!
Captain James Cooks Cottage
Captain James Cooks Cottage
If you are
in Melbourne, you must see Cooks Cottage. Very attractive and cool place. How
to find it? Its Fitzroy Park, Wellington Parade, East Melbourne 3002 I went there by tram 109.
At the entrance
the park, there I saw a family of ducks. They are so cute and beautiful. We sat
on a bench for a while and honestly, I think there is some energy or magnetism, who knows, but I felt so good.
After that you will see Fitzroy Gardens with beautiful flowers
and then James Cooks Cottage.
I will not retell the whole story, you can read it on the internet,
but I’m so impressed by it.
In 1933 Sir Russell Grimwade learnt that the cottage was about
to be demolished in England. He purchased the cottage and arranged for it to e
dismantled and brought to Australia.
After you have seen the cottage, you can wander through the
beautiful backyard garden restored as close as it is possible to the original.
Keep an eye out for the vegetables, herbs, and flowers. Home grown herbs were used to cure all manner
of illnesses and injuries, from bad breath to influenza and broken bones. (if
you are interested in natural remedies you can buy my book here: Mish
Mash by Ellie Great). In the last room you can sit and watch a movie about Captain
James Cook.
Enjoy!
