Junk, swingball and eggs

Weekend ni adalah weekend mengemas rumah sedunia .

Kat Perth, every council has their own ‘hard rubbish collection’ day. Basically, segala barang2 yang besar/junk yang tak boleh muat masuk dalam rubbish bins boleh kita letak kat luar untuk diaorang kutip during the hard rubbish collection day ni.

(but adalah a few things yang diaorang takkan kutip like paint, building materials, tyres, hazardous materials.)

So, our hard rubbish collection day is next week, tu yang weekend ni we all busy mengemas rumah getting rid of all the junk that we have accumulated over the years.

Punyalah banyak gilers junk we all kan, hahahaha.

From broken elliptical machine, broken desks, broken bike, broken chest of drawers to old CPUs and old computer screens and old TVs. The TVs are still good but TV bagak zaman tok kaduk dulu tu. Nak bagi kat orang pun orang tak nak sekarang ni sebab LED and LCD tvs are so cheap sekarang.

A lot of these stuff have been with us since we were in Adelaide lagi, so memang kira dah lama sangat2 lah kan, tu yang dah patah lah, rosak lah, grotty lah .

But, tak sampai pun sejam we all letak the stuff outside, about 1/2 of the stuff has been taken by people already.

I guess some people junks are other people’s treasures kan .

And while the adults were busy mengangkut harta karun junk, the kids were busy jugak…

Busy playing!

I just bought this swingball tennis game on Friday for the girls.

And since Friday, they’ve been at it non-stop everytime they are at home.

At first, lagi banyak gelak dari pukul bola….

But after 2 days of playing, dah bertambah lah the hits dari the misses.

It’s amazing how such a simple game can bring so much fun, hehehe.

And for dinner pulak, I made spanish sausage pie. I loosely followed this recipe changing here and there to suit our tastes and what I had in the fridge.

I didn’t use and pastry as the base. I sauteed onion, garlic, mushroom and diced tomatoes on the stove top until wilted. Then I added sliced cooked sausages, diced cooked potatoes and a bit of paprika, salt and pepper. After everything is well mixed, I poured a bit of bottled pasta sauce to cover it up a bit.

Then I cracked 3 whole eggs over the mix and shoved the whole pan into the oven and baked it at 180°C for about 15-20 minutes until the eggs have set a bit.

(you have to make sure your frying pan can go into the oven before you shove it in the oven though ).

The yolks are still very runny which The Other Half and Miss 8 love so much .

 

Then, you can either have it with bread or like us, with cheesy garlic bread and a bit of fries to mop the gravy up.

The cheesy garlic bread I made a few days ago.
