It was 37 at 9am 🥵 43 today and catastrophic bushfire conditions. 111 schools closed in SA today. The kids that skipped school to protest our governments lack of action on climate change are unlikely laughing at the irony of the situation 😡 Gave my garden a good soak last night and again this morning, and hoping my veggie garden survives the day. Stay safe today folks ❤️ . . . #climatechange #attnscottmorrison #thisisnovember? #abbygrowsstuff

I’ve been a little radio silent here lately. Sorry folks, I’ve been cheating on you with a new insta account 🙊 If any of my fellow relief teachers out there are interested, I’ve started another account with the handle @reliefteacherwellbeing which has a focus on taking care of your own wellbeing in a rather unique job. A bit of a work in progress, I haven’t quite carved out my path yet... I’ll still be here oversharing garden, crafting and reading related content, perhaps just a little more sporadically than before ☺️

I am currently halfway through my plan to go from someone who has never ever been a runner, to someone who can run 5k. I am discovering muscles that I never knew existed, and after three running days in a row I hobbled about like an old lady all day today. . Hoping warm baths, peppermint tea and Helen Garner are as good for aching muscles as they are for the soul. . . . #bookworm #helengarner #teaforme #books #abbysbooklist

Harvested garlic. Strung garlic up in potting shed. Felt like a real ‘proper gardener’ for 5 minutes or so. . . . #garlic #veggiegarden #abbyspottingshed #pottingshed #gardening #abbygrowsstuff

Every time I look at this plant I think it looks as though it’s clawing at the window, trying to get out into the garden with all it’s buddies. Logically, I am reassured that it is actually just trying to make the most of the sunlight, but if I happen to be wrong and it gets desperate and goes looking for someone to strangle in the night, I’m further reassured that it’s on Matt’s side of the bed and not mine. . . . #indoorplants #plants #sunseeker #gardening #abbygrowsstuff

I overhauled our ‘under the kitchen sink recycling system’ earlier this year, and made up a little box for the tiny things that are recyclable, but need to be kept together so that they can be recycled. That little box was finally beginning to overflow today, so now I’ve sorted everything into type and contained it all before putting it in my recycling bin. This took about 10 minutes to sort out today, and is a job I probably only need to do once every six months. . Are you a finicky recycler too? . . . #reducereuserecycle #recycle #recycling #sorting

We found ourselves at a secondhand book sale over the weekend, and after pouring through a few boxes I said to Matt ‘you know, I don’t think I need any more books at the moment’ and I walked away empty handed 😮 . So how many unread books is too many? 58. I just did a quick stocktake and I have 57 unread books at home. . Maybe next years reading challenge should be to work through the backlog! . Currently reading a bit of Virginia Woolf, mostly because it’s a short book and 56 unread books is better than 57 😂 . . . #bookworm #books #virginiawoolf #ihaveabookproblem #secondhandbooks #abbysbooklist

My lettuce are turning into Christmas trees 🎄🤷🏼‍♀️ . I bought my first salad spinner last week and these festive fakers are destined to become the crunchiest tastiest salad ever produced in my kitchen! . . . #abbygrowsstuff #lettuce #veggiegarden #growyourown #gardening #eatyourgreens #thelittlebluecubbyhouse

Quilt cover completed ✅ . It kinda needs a spin in the washing machine and an iron, but I am so done with this project right now. 10 months from start to finish, with a whole lot of procrastination and avoiding in the middle. I thought a quilt cover would be easier than a quilt, but I thought wrong 😂 . . . #quilting #quilt #sewing #kingsizequilt #abbymakesstuff
