...that my weeks just disappear, another one, almost gone, I've been a bit slack in my blogging haven't I, time just races sometimes, I've been meaning to blog, but each day just disappears.
We've been busy, just doing things, as you do. Lots of things I mean to write about, but I just don't find the time to write the words down. So instead, how about a few photos from our week, and just a few words, so that you know we are still alive, and then I'm off to try a new recipe, from that Nourishing Traditions book there above, a book that deserves a whole post of it's own, so interesting. And another book in that stack too deserves a proper mention - Warm Bread and Honey Cake - so good.
Highlight of the week, Aunty Frith coming to stay for two nights!
Finally a bit of sewing, it's been a while. Inspired by Frith's visit.
Eating the first of the broadbeans from the garden.
I just noticed the broccoli has tiny little minature heads!
Sugar snap peas are quickly growing.
This sweet little pea is growing quickly too - cousin Olivia. Isla is in love.
... and this sweet little pea is growing quickly too, our wee friend Ruby. As you can see Isla is in love with the new girls in her life!
And Aaron's been building which means offcuts to play with.
We've had a milestone this week - they are sharing a room! And it's working surprisingly well!
Tried out our new juicer from the opp shop, I've always wanted one. Carrot, orange and kiwifruit juice, delicious.
And this has been looking at me for two days, and has just been added this afternoon. Hmm, I suppose I better do it tonight.
And this is the reason the washing has piled so high (well part of it anyway :) I must admit to a strong dislike of folding washing). I'll share soon what I'm making, I'm getting a bit obsessed.
Hope your week has been good. I'm off to visit family next week as Aaron is away for work. So take care all and I'll see you back here a bit later.
(oh by the way, been meaning to say - Marnie are you out there? Marnie from music? I'd love to catch up.)

In my opinion ironing should always wait for knitting to be finished - at moments of real pressure I have been known to pop in back in the machine just to put off the inevitable - don't tell! :D
Oh man, I understand, I really do. :) Aren't the beginning signs of a garden so fun?! Love it. Do you like that "Creative Toddler Play" book in your first pic??
beautiful photos as always!
your sunny spring-summer photos will take me right through our winter : )
(the cookbooks look great!) xo
Looking forward to seeing your knitting progress. So fun to think of the spring crops growing in your half of the world as we put our gardens to bed.
Nice to stop by your blog.
warm wishes, Tonya
Yes, I agree. Knitting trumps housework!
Oh I think I will need to request that nourishing traditions book from the library. I bet you'd love "heaven on earth" too but I imagine you may have read it already.
the thing about washing is that more gets added everyday ! i'm a bit over unloading the dishwasher ....
You, obessive about something Hanna? Hmm, I wonder where that comes from... (onto critter no.8 and counting down :))
Lovely photos!
I'm excited for you because now you get to garden. :)
I'm so jealous about those broad beans! mine are only tiny and most of my crop was squashed by the bottom of a little man who thought it would be a good place to sit.
lovely pics love the "our week in photos posts"
The yarn is smashing. The laundry will wait. The garden, not so much ... hurray for harvesting!!
The Donna Hay Seasons is new to me. I'm so intrigued, now...
I adore your blog and would like to invite you to share a guest post over at “Or so she says…” (found at www.oneshetwoshe.com). It doesn’t have to be a new post, it can be a favorite “idea” post from the past. Let me know if you’re interested. Thanks!

fantastic photos. i'm jealous of your sugar snaps -- my son's favorite right now.
cheers!
Funny we have a pile that looks just like that! You have inspired me to get the juicer out again, it's been in the cupboard all winter. x
Oh my goodness! You have been on my mind so much lately! Would LOVE to catch up, lots to share ;)
