Today I have cooked my lunch on my wood fired camping stove I made some roasted pumpkin and lentil soup and some toasted marshmellows. To start the fire I used a flint and steel. Today I also watered the plants and planted some peas so I got bit muddy.
Yesterday I watched a documentary on sharks in the Pacific Ocean near the Pitcairn Islands. I liked it and learnt some more about sharks from the show. After mummy and I researched the mutiny on the bounty after as Pitcairn island is where some of the mutineers set up home after they set the captain lose in a lifeboat. Today Mummy when to the supermarket to get some food and came home with a lego set for me, it os creator set I have made the shark  and crab so far.
Did you know that sharks have special sense? they have a ‘midline’ line that runs from there head to there trail along the line of dark skin and light skin it has lots of tiny hairs (called sila) that mean it can sense movements in the water. So I think the best thing to do when you are behind the shark is to stay really still….
You went for food and came back with lego? That is a good shopping trip Joe. I didn’t know that about the Pitcairn Islands and the mutineers, interesting, might read about it myself now. Glad to hear you managed to get at least a little muddy on Big Thursday!
This sounds like an excellent big Thursday Joe! Would be fantastic if you could post up your soup recipe for others to try.
Sounds like you’ve had a great day Joe! Big Thursday and new Lego – lucky you!
Wow this all looks and sounds fab Joe. I think I need to invest in some lego for myself too. I agree with Miss Brockie-Donald about the soup recipe- if you could post it that would be fab! There is now a special section in the blog for recipes. 🙂
