Australian and New Zealand forces are remembered for their service and sacrifice to this wonderful country. My family are not Australian - we are the first generation who have made this our home.... however, I do have family that served in several wars in different capacities ...
My paternal grandfather was a Minister during WW1 and I like to think that his service included supporting and praying for ANZAC's in their service. I never met the man as he died before I was born. This is inside the front page of his bible, which I now have.
Righto, Gotto Go.... widget is spending the day with us and wants to make some ANZAC biscuits....

That is such a treasure to have. I found out my grandmother was a nurse during the war, something I never knew.
She is the one who quilted and rug hooking, so I guess I got my gifts from her.
