Cheekyricho Cook4Me one Pot Kransky HotPot

Our feet have hardly touched the ground since our return home. We attended an engagement party weekend. Caught up with relatives. Collected our darling fur friends from their doting grandmother. Had a few Medical appointments to attend to. 

Built our mega carport and caught up with the necessary home maintenance required when one is absent from their country for a fortnight. The spiders seemed to have sensed our absence and have Decided to take up residence. The neighbours all around have reported numerous snake encounters but the biggest news of all according to Richo is the crabs are ON and the fish are biting!! All else pales into insignificance. 

As we have been so busy outside I have been making meals that are quick, easy, nutritious and tasty. A few one pot meals plus more experiments with my new pasta maker.

 This recipe for a One Pot Kransky HotPot cooked in the Tefal Cook4me was a real hit. The recipe idea was suggested to us by Frank, one of our viewers, it is delicious. So easy to make really tasty and fantastic comfort food. You can check out the easy recipe at https://youtu.be/wgw9Guu8g8U

Just what you need after you've been scurrying around on ladders building a very tall car cover for the motorhome. We have a double garage but Richo's Ute is too long for it and the Merc. Is too tall for it, wanting to protect these oversized vehicles from the elements proved to be a bit of a challenge. We opted for a portable shed which is permanently erected. To provide shelter for the cars and when we want to work outside out of the weather we have a large open space to built stuff. The plumber was coming yesterday to level the driveway into it and prepare the site for the new rainwater tank to collect water from

It's roof and provide free water when required.  The plumber didn't turn up so we have these 2 huge loads in sandstone rubble in the yard waiting to be tamped down for a driveway.

We are subject to strict water restrictions occasionally and watering the vege garden, washing the car or flushing out the boat motor and cleaning the boat after the day at sea is difficult during these dry spells. Our local council offers a  cash rebate as incentive to install a tank to alleviate the pressure on the town water supplies during times of drought. We thought we'd take advantage of the rebate offered plus it solves the storm water runoff issue from the new car shed.  I can't wait to have the whole system up and running.

We will be gearing up for our Christmas cooking very shortly so I have some lovely festive ideas in store for our Cheekyricho YouTube viewers.
