Shadows and independence.

Welcome. Flowers on the table.

After lunch at Kalk Bay, stroll to the park and the ceramic shop, with ice-creams.

Can you see the chameleon?

Nipper 2 and I spent a happy morning at Oude Molen feeding the horses, riding a pony and catching a glimpse of this critter. It was a big one, and moving pretty quickly across the path. Bright eyes spotted it before I stepped on it.

The riding was good too, and so was the ciabatta.

Gumtree love

Happy to say I can see the floor in a corner of the garage! Pretty successful over the last few months getting rid of stuff we should have unburdened ourselves of ages ago (two prams, piles of board- and picture-books, weird bowls, a mantlepiece – at last! – and other weirdness). And no one’s arguing over the few leopards and buffaloes in the wallet either…

Acrobranch – too cool. I hate heights but I am so doing a route next time. Nippers went round three times and would happily have gone again.

This is what weekends are about if possible. Flip-flops and flowers.

Sunday dinner. Totally cool if you don’t have to make it. Tedious if you do. Bit of a treat this week: two pork loins, carrots and potatoes – and don’t forget the wholegrain mustard (in the little green pot!). And no I didn’t make it 😄

Fire on

Wood burning. Whole house warm :). Our new fireplace is fab.

Good news, says S

Pinelands have offered nipper 1 a place at school :)

Trees

If all the trees died, it would be, Aaaah, I can’t have any chocolate, and there’s no chocolate left in the whole world!
