(For info, I believe we English call zucchini “courgette”)

Earwigs are also breeding in the millions atm and chomping everything, rolled up pieces of paper are their fav hidey hole,collect the paper early in the AM,submerge in water,then throw in the compost. Garlic spray is a good stand by for almost any pest too. <em>Jayne's last blog post..<a href='http://ourgreatsouthernland.blogspot.com/2008/01/trivial-history-january-9.html'>Trivial History January 9</a></em> If it’s a mildew prob,apparently spraying with diluted milk helps.

It was actually made with shredded carrots, zucchini & shredded chicken along with noodles (the 2 minute variety) & some chicken stock. The recipe was in fact just a simple home-made chow mein using the shredded chicken & veg with the stock & noodles. The reason we called it "Wombat Stew" is because of the classic Australian story by Marcia K Vaughan http://www.aussiereviews.com/article1987.html, which was one of our all-time favourite reads during group story time. The children were always excited when it was on the menu, so they could recite favourite lines as they ate! <em>socko's last blog post..<a href='http://socko.schwoit.com/2008/01/07/never-ceases-to-surprise-me/'>Never ceases to surprise me!</a></em> In a previous Child Care Centre we used to make “Wombat Stew” for the children.
