Back to school

Its been a very busy week here, organizing all the fine details of starting secondary school.
All the uniforms , books, interviews, sorting books, bus fares { boy are they expensive] yearly bus pass is $392.00 for one child.
Then the final day comes, that first day of secondary school for the youngest child boo hoo.
He was quite nervous, Indy and I waited with him at his class until the bell went and then I get my last hug and oh no the tears started flowing .... not his , mine , he looks at me and says oh no Mum your crying , why are you crying oh you better go before you embarass me , so of I go with Indy with her arm around me leading me to the toilet so I can fix my face, the teachers informing me it ok he will be fine and you go and have a coffee in the staffroom. Oh the embaressment of it all lol.
When I went to pick him up he informed me he loved it and had a awesome day and he loves secondary school...... phew.
What did I do while he was at school, well I have a glut of zucchinis so I was busy making lunch snacks
 Zucchini slice for the freezer, I always make two.
 Zucchini and chocolate cake I made one for the freezer also

Oh dear and even though I made all these things I still have loads more and even more on the plant. Ive made soup the other day and froze it. I might try zucchini fritters, think I need some more zucchini recipes.
Now tommorow Indy is back at school so the house will be quiet until they get home.
I just have to survive this heat wave which Im not fond of at all.

    Glad he enjoyed his first day.

    Those zucchini/ courgettes do tend to take over. Every summer we end up with a ton of them and anything my mum cooks is known as "courgette surprise", it's a very long running joke!

    I know what you mean. Im am inundated with Zukes. The boys were watering but didnt harvest and so i have several that are over 2kg. Arghh....... I think chocolate cake might be the go, but i wont say anything about what's in it.

    Your son looks very handsome in his uniform. I think its so cute you cried. Shows how much you love him. He might be embarrassed only a little but inside he would be beaming.

    More hot weather on the way, im afraid. Not looking forward to my power bill.

I dont like these heat waves, I find it to hot to get out into the garden . I hope you all are going well and surviving ok in this heat.
