Organisation

School holidays always allow me a bit more time to get organised.  I collected these ideas on my Pinterest account and then put them into action this week:

Braided wool for hanging earrings from.

Shower curtain hooks to hang scarves

Folding tshirts in a certain way to make more room

I certainly feel a little bit more organised for starting the Term.

Birdseed bars

This recipe I got from Annabel Langbeins "Simple Pleasures" TV show. It makes HEAPS and is frankly "just delicious!"

On a baking tray mix together:
- 2 cups of rolled oats
- 1 cup of sunflower seeds
- 1 cup of pumpkin seeds
- 1 cup of sesame seeds

Toast in an oven at 180deg C for 5 mins. I substituted half of the pumpkin seeds for some linseed. When done add 1 cup of dried fruit. I did half dried cranberries, half sultanas.

In a small pot, melt together:
- 120g butter
- 6 T Golden syrup or honey
- 8 T Raw sugar
- 1/3 C peanut butter or condensed milk

Stir as it heats and simmer for 5 mins on a low heat.

Add the hot caramel to the toasted seed mix. Work fast as it moulds quickly. Transfer the mixture into a lined Swiss roll tin or baking tray and press flat.

Let cool in the refrigerator for 3-4 hours. When cool, cut into bars. Store in an airtight container till all gone!! Haha.

I couldn't believe how much it made!
