I have never, ever made a crochet dishcloth before!  They are simple and easy to make, but for some reason I've never quite gotten around to making one.

After using pink cotton to make the rock sweaters (haha), I decided that making a pink cotton dishcloth would be fun... and guess what? It was!

A bunch of these would be a fabulous Christmas gift (don't worry family and friends... I'm not going to be giving you all dishcloths for Christmas this year).

If you are a newby to crochet, this pattern should help you get started at making your own dishcloth.

Or if you aren't really into making your own dishcloths, I guess it would make a great blanket for Barbie...

I have a favourite quiche recipe (see here), but when I'm in a rush or just feel like throwing something easy together for tea, this quiche is my "go to" dish.  I love how simple it is to make, and how practically anything can be thrown in (especially great for using up leftovers).

I can't remember where the recipe originates from (it's one my Mum handed down to me) but it's a goodie and easily can be doubled if needed.

Ingredients

1 medium onion, chopped

Other chopped ingredients: pepper, tomato, ham or bacon, silverbeet, corn etc

1 cup grated cheese (tasty cheese is best)

2 eggs, beaten

1 cup milk (or cream if you feel naughty)

¾ cup flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

Method

Mix all of the vegetables and wet ingredients together, then add the flour and baking powder.

Put all together in to a greased dish and cook for ¾ hour at 180°C.

That's it!  So yummy.

This weekend was a full and busy one, but we enjoyed it and made the most of every moment. 

Our two boys spent a night away camping in the bush with their youth group.  I was slightly nervous, knowing that one of them tends to sleep walk, but they arrived home safe and sound having had a fabulous time doing tonnes of boy stuff (hunting possums, building huts to sleep in, staying up until 3 am).

Our youngest son won a prize for best baking and also made $5 carrying other peoples backpacks on the trip.  Here I was worrying about how he would cope with his own backpack!

While the boys were away, us girls made the most of our time together and spent time shopping, going out on coffee dates and relaxing.  Pure awesomeness I tell you.

During the weekend my Nan was rushed to hospital with heart issues, but thankfully is ok.  Times like this remind me of how precious grandparents are, and how important it is to keep in touch... so go and visit your grandparents this week ok?!?!

I'm now heading into two weeks of job training - and thoroughly looking forward to it!!  

I hope your weekend was fabulous too! xoxo
