Ross, Tasmania

 About a week before Christmas 2021 we left our house with a son in charge of watering the garden, mowing lawns, not that they grow much in summer, cooking for himself (the oven wasn't used), I think he bought food home often!  

We always go down the Midland Highway as it's called through the old towns.  A few photos taken on the day we left at the old town of Ross, Tasmania, Australia.
The usual photo of the 
Ross Bridge and the Macquarie River which used to flood but hasn't for a very long time.  
The usual curry scallop pie for lunch.
The Post Office which was opened in 1832, the Bridge was completed in 1836.
The house in the last photo is typical of the old houses in that area.

Rum Balls

 Home once again after 1 month away, be home for about 1 month then off again for a couple of weeks depending on the weather, so away for Easter.

I do hope you are well and safe.  Trying times in the world at the moment. 

Will do posts until we go away just before Easter...so before Christmas made some Rum Balls, Frangelico Balls and after Christmas I made them all again and made some with Tia Maria, seems the family really love them.  They are very easy to make, crushed packet of plain biscuits, coconut, condensed milk, coco plus the Barcardi Rum or a Liqueur.
