Secret Beaches, Song of the Day and Soy Roasted Seed Mix

Hello lovely readers, welcome to the weekend blog post, today I share with you Secret Beaches, Song of the Day and Soy Roasted Seed Mix. 
Happy Reading xo♥
Secret Beaches
There is a tiny beach tucked away at Two Peoples Bay, that is a little tricky to get to but completely worth the short walk through thick bush. 
Little Beach
It's called Waterfall Beach and is located next to Little Beach - which is rated one of the top beaches in Australia.
Waterfall Beach
It was a long hot drive to get there but it was a picture perfect day and while we were swimming we spotted a pod of 8 dolphins that were also enjoying the sheltered waters. 
After our swim, we watched them play as we soaked up some sun and dried off on the pure white sands. Such a wonderful way to spend an afternoon on the beautiful South Coast. Let's keep this beach our secret ok?
Song of the Day
There has been some fantastic new music on Triple J Radio of Late and did you know that you can get FREE MUSIC here : http://www.abc.net.au/triplej/music/freemusic.htm !
Here are three free to download tracks (there are heaps more to choose from) - get them while you can. 
"The Kite String Tangle covers Flight Facilities for Like A Version"
"Danny Harley aka The Kite String Tangle wrangled a string quartet for his cover of Flight Facilities' 'Clair De Lune'."
"Eves - Zen"
"Brisbane's Eves is the newest and brightest promise around at the moment and dazzling audiences with her impressive voice and prowess for perfect songwriting."

"Eleanor Dunlop - Disguise"
"Ex-Cameras lead female vocalist Eleanor Dunlop drops 'Disguise' the first teaser off her self-titled EP due early 2014."
Soy Roasted Seed Mix 
This fab recipe comes from the back of a Sunbeam Seed Mix packet. It's so easy to make and just scrumptious! You can sprinkle these in wraps, sandwiches, over salads, stir frys, vegetables or noodles, or use them as a road trip snack. Here is my adaptation of this recipe. 
Soy Roasted Seed Mix
Ingredients: 
1.2 Cup of Sunflower Seeds, unroasted/unsalted 
1/2 Cup of Pepita's, unroasted/unsalted
1/3 Cup of Sliced Whole Almonds (skin on variety)
2 Tablespoons Sesame Seeds
2 Teaspoons Soy Sauce
1 Teaspoon Caster Sugar
Method: 
1. Line oven tray with baking paper, preheat oven to 170 degrees Celsius.
2. Mix Sunflower Seeds, Pepita's and Sesame Seeds together and spread on prepared tray.
3. Roast for 6 minutes or until lightly toasted - stir every two minutes to ensure even roasting
4. Combine Soy Sauce and Sugar in a heatproof bowl. 
5. Add the roasted seed mix and stir well to coat 
6. Return the mixture to the tray and reduce heat to 150 degrees Celsius and continue to roast for 3 minutes until golden, stirring after each minute to ensure even roasting. 
7. Cool then store in an airtight container.

Lovely readers, that wraps up Secret Beaches, Song of the Day and Soy Roasted Seed Mix. See you all on Wednesday for a new edition of Wednesday Wishes.
