We wear many hats here

Today Neil and I have been fulfilling different roles in our quest to provide a home for our family....

 

 The laundry job is an everyday job but it Mt Washmore seems to grow just before the weekend! I've run out of laundry powder so have to stop at four loads today.

I harvested all these tomatoes this morning its one day's crop.

It seems we are also caterpillar farmers, but I'm not sure of our success rate! I must give the parsley a new home, I'm sure its not that happy growing in a brick1 We are also trying to be grapevine growers but after 5 years this is as big as our vine gets. (Bottom left photo).

 

Neil spent all morning yesterday splitting all this wood  gathered from the local rivers, all so we can be toasty warm this winter. A heat pump is on the wishlist then the log splitter he built can be retired. I love being married to a practical kinda guy.

Neil painting the window frame on the garage and a quick whip around the back door frame which Molly promptly leaned against! Our dog now has a racing stripe.

 

Ethan was meant to be helping clean out Molly's kennel but it soon became his playhouse.

I've also baked (in between laundry loads) 3 cakes. 2 x banana and 1 coconut chocolate slice....which is waiting for an icing sugar sprinkle and a cake tin. (Do you like my retro cake tin?)

so now Neil has gone off with two hunter gatherer friends to make pork sausages and I'm spending some well earned time on the computer!
