http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012/12/latest-culinary-discovery.html
Wednesday, 26 December 2012.

Waldeck musings: Tent Number X-1
http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012/12/tent-number-x-1.html
Monday, 17 December 2012. We have also managed to finally get rid of one of our older tents! The Invert 6 mentioned just before was intended to replace our old Coleman tent that we'd bought in Australia about 5 years ago (for $99) and only ended up using a handful of times. We sold it on TradeMe over the weekend for. NZ$242! Prices for tents appear to have gone up a bit, but still, that's a LOT more than we thought it would go for. Now, where's that other tent that we need to sell. Tent Number X 1.

Waldeck musings: Angry Fruit!
http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012/12/angry-fruit.html
Saturday, 8 December 2012. For our advent calendar, the kids are getting bits and pieces from the Angry Birds game over the month. and so far, all they've got is blocks. So, in the absence of birds and pigs, we decided to try out a game of Angry Fruit instead - with a piglet instead of pigs. Shot #1: Angry apple. Shot #2: Angry pear. Shot #3: Angry strawberry. Looks like piglet is still standing! 8 December 2012 at 1:43 PM. 8 December 2012 at 9:01 PM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Tent Number X 1.

http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012_10_01_archive.html
Monday, 22 October 2012. It was Naomi's 3rd birthday today. and just so happens to be Labour Day here in NZ as well, so she got a public holiday for her birthday! After breakfast we opened her presents and then started cooking up a feast - she wanted curry, so I cooked an Indian lunch (curry, naan and onion bhajis). And that was followed by a very large frozen cheesecake (seen as Naomi loves cheese and chocolate! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). EQUIP Short - Different by Design by Carrie Sandom.

Sunday, 24 June 2012. With my birthday being tomorrow, we did the birthday thing this evening instead. so Mel made us yummy roast pork, potatoes, kumara bake and peas, washed down with a yummy Martinborough Pinot Noir.

Waldeck musings: Tent Number X+1
http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012/12/tent-number-x1.html
Monday, 17 December 2012. Tent Number X 1. There are slight differences from the previous model ( pictured here. The ones we've noticed:. Biggest difference is the extra pole at the back (left-hand side of the picture above). Previously the back room was quite slopey (imagine the roof going from the edge of the blue part straight towards the ground), which was fine for us - that was where the kids slept and it was perfectly big enough. The extra pole makes that room substantially roomier. Tent Number X 1.

Waldeck musings: September 2012
http://waldecks.blogspot.com/2012_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, 27 September 2012. Brisbane festival laser light show. This is the 2nd year we've gone. I thought they'd improved on last year as far as quality, but Ben thought it was too short. There was also lots more people this year which made it harder for the kids to see, but that might have been because we didn't go during school holidays last year. Wednesday, 26 September 2012. A 458g pack of casserole meat has been turned into about 200g of decidedly tasty biltong! Sunday, 23 September 2012. One of t...
