Lanyon is an historic homestead and grazing property located on the southern outskirts of Canberra in the Australian Capital Territory. The site was first occupied following white settlement by Timothy Beard, who depastured cattle on the Limestone Plains as early as 1829. Beard had been transported to Australia for life and arrived in the colony in 1806. After receiving his pardon he entered the pastoral industry as a squatter. Beard's huts were located on the Molonglo River near Queanbeyan and on the site of Lanyon homestead. Beard was forced out of the area by land grants and later became an innkeeper at Bringelly (Moore, 1982). The government converted the homestead into the Sidney Nolan Gallery which opened to the public in 1975. It housed a collection of the paintings of Sir Sidney Nolan. A purpose-built gallery for the Nolan collection was built in the grounds in 1980. An extensive conservation and restoration program was undertaken and the homestead is now managed as a house museum, within a working property, by the ACT Government and the National Trust. Lanyon Homestead was threatened by the 2003 Canberra bushfires, which also threatened the nearby township of Tharwa. On January 18, 2003, as fires were approaching Canberra, the homestead was hosting a wedding. The fire situation deteriorated, prompting the evacuation of Tharwa, which was defended and saved by Southern Rural Fire Brigades. The Lanyon Homestead was not impacted by fire, though it did come under ember attack. A single fire truck was on hand to hose down and protect the historic homestead. Given the age of Lanyon, this was certainly not the first time the property had faced bushfires... more on Wikipedia.

Are you looking for a wonderful all around bread recipe? Look no more. I have been on a quest to find simple and easy bread recipes and this one is fantastic! This bread recipe comes from one of my very sweet homesteading buddies and let me tell you, she can flat out bake bread! She is teaching my family some of her recipes and tricks and it is such a blessing! She has an endless supply of old recipes. I love this recipe because the dough makes such a versatile bread. Sliced dinner bread, yummy sandwich bread, garlic bread, French toast… I can go on and on, but I urge you to try this recipe and explore the endless possibilities! Recipe: 1/3 cup Honey 1/4 cup Oil 2 1/2 cups Warm Water 1 Tablespoon SAF Yeast 2 Teaspoon Salt 7+/- Cups Bread Flour (Whole Wheat or White) Directions: Combine warm water, 2 cups of flour, and yeast in a large bowl. Allow to sponge for 15 minutes. To above, add honey, salt, oil, and 4-5 cups of flour. Knead for 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic. Do not add additional flour after the first 5 minutes of kneading. If dough is still sticking to hands, clean them and put oil on them. After kneading dough, allow dough to sit and rest for at least 10 minutes. Form into 2 loaves and place into well oiled bread pans. Allow bread to rise/double. This could take 10-45 minutes or more depending on how warm your kitchen is. Keep an eye on it. Then, bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes. After baking, remove loaves from pans almost immediately onto cooling rack. After 10 minutes, brush with melted butter for extra richness. Enjoy! xoxo
