Costin's crops and caterpillars!

Our little veggie garden is going strong!!


The beetroot, broccoli, onions, garlic and carrots are growing and growing and looking fabulous!!


& we have one VERY healthy continuous crop of rocket and coriander so have been making lots of yummy pesto.


Over the past few weekends we have been taking advantage of the new season and added tomatoes, capsicums, sweet corn, oregano, thyme, rosemary and a chili plant to the garden! Next is to hang our special strawberry planter and start growing juicy strawberries for summer, Yum!!
We aren't the only ones who think it's all yummy - it seems a few little green naughty caterpillars have moved in on our lettuce & broccoli!


So this weekend Milla, Harris and I went Caterpillar Hunting. The kids LOVED this! Milla befriended her little bucket full and read them The Very Hungry Caterpillar book while Harris spent AGES just playing with, giggling and holding his new green buddies!!

Father's Day 'Party'

While food shopping this week Milla asked why we were buying 'pancake sauce' (maple syrup) so I told her mummy would make pancakes for dad for Father's Day. This lead to questions about Father's Day and the easiest way I found to explain it was to tell Milla it's like a party day for all the daddies.... "Can we have a party for dad?" she asked (girl after my own party planning heart) and it was decided that on Sunday we would have a Father's Day Breakfast Party!
We told Matt to stay in bed until we came to get him and then headed into the kitchen to prepare the 'party'.
