The other half and I took our bikes to a local park and I couldn't resist the wildflowers in the grass. I would have spent all day there but was reminded that there was more to see... I will return with a picnic soon!



edit: why doesn't the picture centre itself? Why am I confused looking at html? I need to learn this better so I can properly edit my posts!!!

My Weekend in Numbers

11 herb seeds planted: 2 Fragrant Dill and 3 each of Italian large leaf Basil, Marjoram & Summer Savoury to go with my 1 chive plant.

2 newly purchased African Violets tenderly transplanted into pretty glazed pots.
6 house plants re-potted.
10 house plants dusted and watered.

10 fingernails full of soil (priceless).

1 layer of swept-up pine needles, old potting soil, and plant trimmings spread out on the compost.

1 bag of mushroom manure purchased for $6 at Burnaby Central High School to support charity.

1 deck prepared for "Power-wash Tuesday" (can't wait to set up the patio furniture next weekend!).

1 laundry line washed.
4 loads of laundry washed and dried on the line.

1 bundled up stack of cardboard boxes tied with twine, 1 full bag of newspapers, 2 bins of bottles, jars, tin cans, and containers put out for recycling.

6 new blogs I now follow added to the growing list of inspiration (omg Martha has a new crafting blog!).

2 trips to the grocery store to buy fruits and veggies and pasta with 3 cloth market bags.

1 housewarming party with 30 people in a 400 square foot apartment.

2 bookshelves dusted, the rest can wait for next weekend.

1 cat shooed out of our house 3 times because he doesn't get along with my cat.

2 pizzas made from scratch. 3 people standing in the kitchen eating and conversing.

1/2 a movie watched.

0 hours of time spent playing video games and watching TV.
