What a fab afternoon
Fun in the sun and rain
Lots of surprises this morning
The nectarine tree is actually
Which was labelled
Nearly a full moon
My cousins have arrived bearing gifts
It’s cooler to be inside cooking than outside with the cats
Outside the cats are crashed out in the heat
My pumpkin is wilting – I hope it perks up when I water the garden tonight
In St Neots, this morning, I admired the amazing floral display outside the library
Monday morning treats – for goats
In the paddock there are two large trees that bear small, sweet plums. We pick some for our own delight but many more for the lovely goats
You only need one!
I saved some pumpkin seeds from two of our squashes that we grew last year. I sowed them in pots and put them on the kitchen windowsill and watered them lovingly. Only one seedling emerged – much to my disappointment. I planted it in a raised bed and kept a close eye on it, surrounding it with organic slug pellets whilst it was a vulnerable baby plant and then watering it when the days were dry. This morning I admired it.
Good children, eat up your fruit
I brought some of the nectarines into the kitchen to see if they will ripen.
Whilst doing a tai chi set outside I was accompanied
By bats flying above in the nighttime summer sky
