corner view :: white

There’s not a lot of white around Bootville.  Lots of green.  Lots of tin roofs.  Lots of black roads (unfortunately).  But white in this dusty, hot, inner city suburb tends to look brown very quickly!  White is definitely something I want more of in our new home.  It is so very peaceful and pretty.

So looking around for white … hmmm …. there are the pews on the back porch we painted white a few years ago (much to EVERYONE’S horror).  And we love them very muchly but so do the doggles … yup, browny-grey.

Then there’s the sofa and armchairs newly returned from the upholsterer.  They are spiffy white!  Alas, they are hiding in the shadowy bedrooms (making getting into bed interesting!) so as to avoid the fate of the pews.  I’m in love with them.  Roadside hard rubbish - my favourite way to shop!

A-ha!  I open the fridge and I see LOTS of white.  We are dairy mad here in Bootville.  We drink gallons of milk, buckets of yoghurt and bricks of cheese.  Yum! Yum!

Sometimes, when I rush through the supermarket for supplies, I find myself at the counter with a whole trolley of white.  A little concerning - I think if your meal - or trolley - is all one colour, it may be a wee bit nutritionally UNbalanced.  Good thing we put the goats cheese with beetroot and spinach; the feta with pumpkin and lamb; the yoghurt with berries and bananas.  But all that milk - nah, we just guzzle it down as is and feel immensely grateful to have such lovely organic milk at our fingertips.  Long live Barambah!

p.s. I don’t know what we’ll do when we move - Barambah don’t supply Victoria - I’ll have to go on the hunt for another dairy - and make sure we drink up big when we’re visiting home!
