Portrait Saturday

Souties Squash

This is our first vine of Souties Squash, it’s believed to be a South African heirloom and I can’t wait to try it! We planted the vines close to our outside flatlet which a has a flat roof and is perfect for these vines to ramble across. We have always grown pumpkins and squash in our veggie garden and they have quite simply taken over the whole area, stunting all the other veggies that grow beneath them. I am hoping, by planting them near a flat roofed building, that we can guide them up there and let them go wild:)

This is my favourite chair in my bedroom, I often sit here in the mornings and watch the sun rise.
Sandy seems to like this spot too… :)
Wishing you all a peaceful weekend,
Warmly

Images Around Our Home and Garden

Today has been a wonderful sunny and warm day, after the week of freezing and rainy weather we have experienced, the sun has been most welcome! I wandered around the garden and inside our home with my camera and have taken some photos to share here… I am enjoying visiting the links on Creative Friday, you are all so wonderful and thank you for the lovely birthday wishes for Jen’s 14th birthday on Thursday. Today her little bird flew away out of his cage, she has hand-reared him since he was a tiny little hatchling. It was a most traumatic time, but then she went outside and called to him, she had a bowl of his favourite food (bird nutritional cereal) in her hands and he flew down to her from the oak tree and sat on the bowl! His name is Doug, he has never known life out in the ‘wild’ and doesn’t know how to fend for himself, it is also freezing here at night, so we were all terribly concerned for this sweet little creature. We are so relieved he is back here, safe with us… Erin is down and out with flu at the moment, she has been drinking honey, lemon and ginger tea and taking her homoeopathic remedies, but I can see she feels flat… if anyone has any natural remedy suggestions that have helped to soothe flu symptoms, I would be most grateful to hear them:)

I have listed a new item in our Mamma4earth family shop, some bottle green glass stitch markers, made by my wonderful daughter Jenna.

Happy weekend xo
(PS Thinking of you my dear friend Shannon xo xo)
