Still Working with the Dandelion Theme.

I'm not Licking her Now!

Me lick the Cat? Definitely not!

Not quite the end of the Story.

Oooops, he forgot the yeast!

The Best Drinking water!

Why do cats seem to prefer drinking shower water instead of water from their own clean bowl?

And yes, the dog is still licking her back and doesn't she love it! Misty, seen here is 19 years old which the vet tells me is equivalent to somewhere between 92 and 93 in human ages.

Day 17.

The top knot of dried petals has fallen off.

Definitely Something Happening, Day 16.

Stamps To Mark Classic Australian Childrens' Books.

Thirty Five Year old Train Tickets!

A Discovery?

Summer Vegetables Looking Good.

Patio Prize Tomatoes. I grew these last season and they grew huge, much too big for any pot and patio that I have, so this year they're in the garden all staked up for the expected growth spurt.

That's Italian eggplant in front of the tomatoes.

Sweet Corn.

Yellow Butter Beans.

Day Nine.

I think something is happening!

Tadpole Feeding Frenzy!

It won't be long before these taddies are all frogs, see the litttle legs on the lower tadpole?

Sprekelia, or Maltese Cross Lilies.

These look so exotic, but they are very easy to grow.

A Pink one this Time.

A Different Type of Yellow Flower, an Abutalon.

Now What? Day 4.

Day 3

Day 2

Note the tightly compacted centre of the flower.
