The winter sports are upon us. Not much of a winter yet, but it will come. Both kiddos each played well. Me, stepping onto the court after a couple of years off. Let's see what the season brings........ #themumcook #winter #season #ellenbrookeelsnetballclub #motherdaughter #ellenbrookdockers #courttime #netball #footy #sport #perthisok #perthwinter #sunsout #family

13!!!!! Getting to be a real old man now. The kids and I love you being our shadow and amazed at how well you are at being in the way in the kitchen, toilet, and bedroom, but we wouldn't want it any other way. #themumcook #dogsareforlife #love #old #shadow #happy #myboy #oldman #bestdog #pet #kids

Cooler westher, so I had the urge to cook something a bit more. Roast pork with crakling and a rainbow of vegetables. #themumcook #sundayroast #rainbow #vegetables #crackling #coolerweather #publicholiday #family #enjoygoodfood #myway #three
Quiet Sunday. Home-made pasta, tomato sauce. It's been a while since I've made pasta. It is very satisfying and tasty. Comfort food was in order after the last few days. #themumcook #pasta #homemade #notagoodstart #homegrown #comfortfood #sunday #toughenup #wakeupcall #tasty #2024
It started with a chat of new sauces for meats and ended with Tomahawk steak and cowboy butter, ribs, and snags. A hot day, and Eden who likes to BBQ. #themumcook #cowboy #butter #steak #tomahawksteak #ribs #chat #ended #bbq
First time attempting an Okonomiyaki. Some tweeks to be made, but impressed how it turned out. #themumcook #tryneethings #sundaydinner #perthsummer #egg #cabbage #carrot #chilli #sweetsoysauce #prawns #japanese #pancake #kewpie #mayo

Happiest of birthdays to my girl. You made me a Mumma, thrown challenges at me, quizzed me on worldly topics, supervised me in the kitchen, tested me on many levels I care to remember and continually amazed me on what a wonderful young lady you're growing up to be. Love you. #themumcook #birthday #growing #nearlyteen #twelve #up
