In my day, we used to blog for ten hours uphill in the snow and when we got there all we had was a 14k modem that would drop-out at 99% complete when people called and we’d have to start all over again.
I’ve got reviews + giveaways for Australian hemp seeds and a gluten-free baking book coming up in the next few posts. But first, a few photos I’ve snapped since the 2nd baby + moving to “The Outback.” 
Free advice: don’t take the gravel road to Darwin in the wet season. It’s a river.
