Good Afternoon! I hope this finds you all well. Last Thursday we went to The Easter Show. It was the first day of the show and so much quieter to what we are use to – we normally go Good Friday – which I think always works out to be the busiest day! My Miss 10 dances Bjp Physie and was given the opportunity to Dance there with 300 other Physie girls and ladies in the main arena. She did it last year and was eager to do it again and so we didn’t have a say in the day we went. It is lovely that she gets the opportunity to do this with the Sport she LOVES!
Getting ready to catch the train – the girls were super excited!
The girls are on there somewhere!
It was such a great day as we saw so many stands that we normally can’t get anywhere near! It was quite hot, we did lots of walking, lots of rides and had a LONG but wonderful day! (We got on a train at 7.40am and home at 11pm!) We were lucky enough to have my in-laws come down and mind Master and Miss 2 so Miss 10 and Miss 8 and I could go down and have some quality time together. Hubby had to work so he came down afterwards….which was good as Miss 10 and I don’t do scary rides but Miss 8 and him do!
- Me with my gorgeous big girls!
I am thrilled to be able to share with you some things I found on the day and perhaps you will find some goodies you have not seen before…
Morish Nuts: This is an Australian family owned business that we see and buy from every year at the show. Hubby is a savoury snacker rather than sweet, so this is where he goes to instead of a Showbag! With a huge range of flavours, hubby had a taste test and settled on these: Hot and Spicy Macadamias, Wasabi Macadamias and the Premium Nut Mix (he could have got a lot more I am sure but knows we can get them online through their store) …. and YES there are plenty of choices for those that are Gluten, Dairy and Preservative Free!

The Chilli Factory: Another favourite of hubbys that he has to have a taste at and buy something at, at every Easter Show (and even close to us, less than half an hour!) The heat is rated out of 10 so you know what you are tasting. We bought ‘Morning Afterburn’ which is a Hot Chilli and Mango Sauce 10/10 and also ‘The Bilby’s Bummer’ which is a medium Green Thai Chilli Sauce 7/10. The Chilli Factory holds the Guinness World Record for the Hottest Chilli which is not out on display but you can purchase it 15/10!!!!! We bought this (we are not crazy enough to try this ourselves) as a gift for a very dear friend who brags about how much he can handle hot chilli…can’t wait to give him this and hopefully get a reaction….I will have my camera ready!
For those keen to check them out they have online sales and also a list of stockists on their website. The heat starts at #1 so check them out even if you are not a major chilli lover. Be sure to read all the ingredients carefully if you have food allergies or intolerances.

The Biltong Man: We had a great chat to the lovely couple at this stand from Springbok Delights. Hubby and the big girls tried pretty much everything they had and bought one of everything I think too! Last night watching telly hubby was snacking on the Mango and Chilli Beef Ingredients Lean Australian Beef, Salt, Spices, Brown Vinegar, Sugar, Soy Sauce (Water Wheat Soybeans and Salt) he LOVES this …. pair it up with some of the nuts from earlier, some cheese and a glass of red and I think he would be is tastebud heaven!
