Mixed Seed Crackers

~ Tandy

Mixed seed crackers have been all the rage this year at gym, with it being a low carbohydrate snack that is not only good for you, but tasty as well. I like mine with smoked paprika, but any spice will work. Head straight on to the recipe ♥

It really is the simple things in life that make my heart sing. When I bought my first home I really wanted a spa bath. To me, the ultimate treat is reading my book and drinking a cup of coffee while the jets do their thing. Dave was convinced we would move before the year was out, and he advised me not to replace my bath. Four years later we eventually moved down to Gordons Bay and rented a town house. We had planned on being there a year, but it took us 4 more years before we moved into the cottage. And then a lot more time went by before the house started taking shape. Eventually I got my spa bath, and weather permitting I enjoy the bliss of the bubbles. We have a solar powered geyser which is not heating to its full capacity at present. This is because we need to create heat exchanges for the hot water. To this end, in summer we will have a heated pool, and in winter the floor in our lounge and bathroom will be heated. The pool was dug, lined and filled in the second week in December and I have loved every minute of just being able to sit in it! Such a simple thing as being in water makes me so happy! What small thing makes you happy?

  6. Awesome! Love me a good relax in a spa bath too, and yay to a pool and heated bathroom flooring. 🙂
    So many small things make me happy, normally starts with the first sip of my morning cuppa coffee, I am also really happy when I get to crawl into my comfy bed at the end of each day too.
    Loving the mixed seed crackers, I have been trying to convince the chefs we need something like this to serve with cheese platters for our functions, will include this recipe in my campaign.
    Hope you are having an amazing holiday with family and friends. Hugs from Australia. 🙂
