Day 84

25 April 2013

Anzac Day - Lest we Forget.

Today we were naughty and didn't go to the local dawn service, we washed the Gold Coast one on tv. A poor effort we know but we did get up and watch something none the less. Want to go to that Gold Coast one one day, looks fantastic.

To get in the spirit of the day we started by making Anzac biscuits. Every year I make them so being in a caravan was no excuse. The main mission was how I was going to get them to cook in the Weber, that's right people, the Weber!

Decided the pizza stone was the way to go as it keeps a constant heat on the bottom so made my biccies and placed them in the weber.


Turned weber right to low and checked them after 15 mins, looked ok but still a little uncooked on top so decided to leave them in a little longer. Started doing the dishes to fill the time and smelt burning....shit forgot about the biccies, pulled them out and some were burnt on the bottom but not too bad and there was a couple that were perfect but a little too cooked for me as I like them chewy and they were crunchy. Still a good effort I believe!

After Anzac biscuit breakfast we headed for a drive to see what else we could find. Checked out the boat harbour and drove to see the Gascoyne River thought we might do some fishing...hmmm not really what We were expecting!

Out this way is all the plantations for the fruit and vegie growers so it was quite an interesting drive. Lots of bananas here!

And a sign we saw a lot of at every property....

My fruit picking aspirations are fading away...maybe it's for the best! Haha

Lamb shanks for lunch watching the AFL, so hot here, just sweating, is meant to storm tonight so hoping it does to cool it off a bit!
