Day 5 - in advance - ooops I've overstretched myself


Ok Ok I've taken on too much. Realistically I can't blog everyday. I certainly can't fit in 40 minutes of exercise every day so yep I've over promised. However I do intend to blog a bit more often than I used to. This is just to save a very dear friend from killing her boss due to frustration......
I will also increase the frequency of exercise to more than 2x a week but no it can't be every day. Sometimes I'm just a wee bit too enthusiastic and not realistic enough.
Sorry pardon

I had it ...

The wares are normally home grown fruit, vegies and eggs although I have seen pots of honey and jam and even the odd bit of lace or crochet. The items are usually priced up and you leave your money in a box. Occasionally the items for sale are not so delightful – pony poo for your roses is a standard offering. Usually the price for pony poo is a gold coin ($1 0r $2) This weekend we were driving through the mountains behind Kapiti on our way to pick Miss up from her first Brownie camp. A local farmer was advertising an Honesty Box shop on the roadside so we did a wee detour. Have to say it was one of the best honesty box shops we’d ever seen. We bought raspberries, tomatoes, apples and a dozen eggs all for $10. We’d have bought more but we were out of cash as they had also included home baking items like savoury scones, f...
