progress

Atarangi kindly had a two hour nap this morning, brilliant timing for me and Kikiwa to lay the new grass where the hideous stones used to be. hooray! we will eventually lay some pavers along between the garden and the grass and under the clothes line.
rolling it out

almost done!

finishing touches

the inspector - bean in mouth of course

hmmmmm
 

a tickle under the chiny chin chin

unfortunately the old grass is dry and crusty in comparison
 but the garden looks green!

nothing like a bit of water play

my other little helper..

the other night I was cutting out a skirt, puppy decided I needed her assistance. She LOVES sewing..
 

Mama's little helper

 
Today was a bit of a funny day, rainy and for Atarangi, very very sleepy! In fact she didn't even make it out of her jarmies until bath time.. Beans for dinner and Atarangi helped me to pod them, usually we do this outside either for dinner, or just to eat them straight off the stalk...
I'll have another...

one for the mouth and one for each hand

better taste test this one too

where'd it go?

oh in my mouth!

must. eat. beans. 

I'll just turn the handle so its safe

LOOK two at once!

hmmm did I miss any?

the taste tested beans...ready for cooking.
