The annual Gembrook Retreat chestnut harvest happened again and all who came enjoyed themselves. We were all invited to make our way some time into the chestnut orchard and fill the empty baskets provided... and take some home too. There will be a later blog on how to prepare chestnuts for eating so this is just a bit on the picnic round the fire.
Bec and Gord were there and their three little ones, of course. There was plenty of pumpkin soup to supplement the sample pot of chestnut soup. Both soups were scrummy.
Bec had the pleasure of reacquainting with an old primary school friend Hannah who is now a teacher along with many other community focused pursuits. Jasper met Hannah for the first time and saw the world upside down for the photo... otherwise no face at all.
