Recipe - Lesley's Savoury Stuffing.- Roast Chicken & Vegetables.

1 Egg 2 rashers bacon - most fat removed - diced. Salt & Pepper 1 tablespoon each of Fresh Oregano & Rosemary. 2 tablespoons of fresh Parsley. Finely diced. You can use 1 tablespoon of mixed herbs if you don't have fresh herbs. 4 cups (approx) of fresh breadcrumbs. Any bread you like. I used Organic Oat Sourdough this time. Put bread in food processor to finely crumb or tear with hands for rough crumbs. 1/2 red onion diced. 1 heaped teaspoon finely diced garlic. Method: In a bowl beat egg, add all other ingredients, mix well. Place in cavity of chicken, press in tightly to fit all in. You can also gently lift the skin on the breast and place about 1/2 the mixture under the skin if you want. This time I put all the seasoning in the cavity of the chicken and put 2 rashers of bacon (extra) and some coconut oil under the breast skin. Then roast your chicken at about 180C-200C for about 1 1/2 hrs to 2 hrs depending on the size of your chicken. I cook mine outside

One Month old twin boys Miles & Owen.

Twins!!!!!! What more can I say? Double cuteness. Double soft skin. Double tiny feet and hands. Double.......trouble perhaps? NO! They were adorable, and very funny. Miles the larger of the two was not particularly impressed with the idea of being disturbed mid sleep to be stripped off down to his nappy (in the nicely heated room), and placed in a basket filled with rugs and have his mum and another lady try to position him so he looked cherub like. No way was he going to put up with this nonsense, and let us know! Owen on the other hand, didn't really care too much, once left alone, he settled down to continue his nap. Then Owen got hungry. No longer interested in being a cherub, he wanted his feed......now! So mum, (not once was she flustered) picked him up and fed him. Another chance for me to take some pics whilst he was distracted. Then Miles wanted his turn. Mum (still keeping her cool) told Miles he would have to wait until his brother finished. Then dressed and wrapped
