This is my 'online diary' as we turn our little plot of suburbia land into the best farm we can. Self sufficiency is our dream as we battle the Urban jungle. Is anyone reading this? I'm not quite sure. Is anyone going to follow my journey? Well if your reading this right now why not hit 'Follow' and see how things work out on our Suburban Farm! -Be the change you want to see-

The bread maker

Mmmmmmmmmm



Nothing smells better than freshly made bread! Wholemeal and enticing (and maybe a little taller than I had expected), this stuff is good! For now I'm using the bread premixes you can get from local supermarkets, just until I can get the hang of it.






Talk soon, I hear bread calling my name...

Taking stock

Soooo, I thought I would take stock of what this manor already has and what we need to add to it to help us cut costs. Hmmm spend money to save money?

We have the hennies-all 3 of the ladies lay an egg each day
A mango tree-lorikeets are loving THAT
A mulberry tree-a reliable but only seasonable fruiter
Veggie gardens-empty but ready

Inside we have a yoghurt maker and a mummy who knows how to make yoghurt with milk and a few tablespoons of yoghurt (culture)
Cheese that can be made from yoghurt

And that's about it. I might have to work on that list. I'm watching a bread maker on eBay right now. Would prefer to get a brand new one but think I should save my $. I'm going to the shops today so will try to resist purchasing a new one. Good luck to me!
