The Move - 9th Jan 2011

The week before the big move was crazy I think. There was so much to do which was last minute considering there were many things we cannot do much in advance. Sunday was kitchen day. Sartia came over early and helped clear the kitchen. All the lentils, flour, spices, beans and any food that would not be consumed during the week had to be packed for Sarita to take. The things to be sent to Australia were washed and dried. Most of the utensils to be taken were stainless steel. We had 2 new sets of cutlery so the ones in use were to be given to Sarita. There was some china, mugs and bowls which were also to be taken with us. All pots and pans were to be thrown away as they were in need of replacing anyway. After the hard work of emptying the kitchen we went for a lovely Indian buffet at Sakoni’s. After good food there is nothing to do but rest or nap.
