Spring
When the sun comes out all you want to do is spend the day outside.
The girls wanted to make a tent under the clothesline.
It was a beautiful creation of sheets and blankets and cushions .
They then got into some mud pie making.
I haven't seen them do this for a while,
but it was lovely to watch them enjoy making a mess.
My winter garden looks very over grown now and I need to start
clearing it out to get ready for the spring planting.
We enjoyed growing purple broccoli, spring onions,
purple cabbage, rocket ( self seeded), and snow peas.
The chooks race over when they see me enter the garden
as they know they always get a treat. It might be a snail or slug, but
usually a few leaves from an old broccoli plant. When it's time to dig
it up, I let them in and they are virtually sitting on top of the spade
waiting to see what they can snaffle. It's funny but I have to be so
careful that they don't get a spade in the back of the neck.
