Breakfast, Crystals and DIY



I made breakfast mushrooms and eggs with grilled vine tomatoes.


Another visit to The Big Tasmanian Rock Shop where I purchased more Crystals. Blue Calcite, Orange Calcite, Sodalite and an Amethyst from Scotland 🙌

Calm Communication
Blue Calcite is a stone that is especially calming and soothing. Nearness of blue calcite is great for calming frayed nerves. Blue calcite in your environment can make you aware of needs for rest, which is the first step in helping you get the rest you need.
Physically, blue calcite is used in crystal healing for the throat, lungs, tonsillitis, thyroid, arthritis, joints and high blood pressure.
(Note that healing crystal meanings are spiritual supports to healing and not prescriptions or healthcare information)

Emotional Healing
Orange Calcite is a stone that is particularly helpful mentally. It can relieve emotional fear, mental breakdown, depression, accidents, suicidal thoughts. It is particularly helpful with phobias. Orange calcite restores mental and emotional equilibrium.
Physically, orange calcite is helpful for the reproductive system, intestines, irritable bowel syndrome, kidneys, chronic fatigue, calcium intake and assimilation.

Sodalite is a stone of logic, rationality and efficiency. It brings inner peace. Sodalite brings order and calmness of the mind. It encourages rational thoughts, objectivity, truth and intuition. Sodalite brings emotional balance and calms panic attacks. It enhances self-esteem, self-acceptance and self-trust.
Physically, Sodalite balances the metabolism, boosts the immune system amd overcomes calcium deficiencies.

Psychic, Sobriety
Amethyst is a meditative and calming stone which works in the emotional, spiritual and physical planes to promote calm, balance and peace. It is also used to eliminate impatience.
Emotionally, amethyst is used in crystal healing to help heal personal losses and grief, bringing one gently past. Amethyst has a gentle sedative energy that can promote peacefulness, happiness and contentment.

Aussie Pie Floater

With Australia day fast approaching, I had to share this Aussie icon. The pie floater is a meat pie submerged in thick pea soup, the pies are traditionally turned upside down sitting or sometimes submerged in the pea soup. The first time I had ever heard of this was while watching an episode of Billy Connolly's Australian tour. He was doing a show in Adelaide and indulged in one of these south Aussie icons. We tried a similar thing called a tiger pie from Harry's Cafe de Wheels on the Sydney harbour, the Tiger is a meat pie served with scoop of mash a scoop of mushy peas and a scoop of gravy, it was really delicious.  A pie floater put simply is a meat pie on top of or covered in green pea soup with a choice of sauce squirted on top, the usual being ketchup, brown sauce, mint sauce, gravy or bbq sauce, some people also enjoy vinegar over their floater, I suppose the options can be endless, whatever 'floats' your pie!!.
