Toast, Cousins and Hide and Seek

The bread we made together yesterday was mostly little slider buns for 4th July with a bit shaped by Littlest Live-wire into a boot shape. Today that made a pair of toasted boots.

This is the first time we have seen the cousins together since B was born. This time they are old enough to play together, here Littlest Live-wire is watching No 2 Live-wire with his construction set, K’Nex.

Hide and seek is great fun among the plants!

Little Hands, Nasturtiums and Poppies

Littlest Live-wire and I made bread this afternoon, her first time and she loved kneading the dough. I just love her little dimply knuckles!

This year I have used Mum’s old pan stand not for beans but for Nasturtiums and they are beginning to make the show I was looking for.

There are just two Poppies left, a red and a white, close together and beautiful.

Ladybird, Headband and Little Hoodie

There was a Ladybird on the Borage this morning.

Littlest Live-wire, her Mum and our eldest daughter all arrived last night to meet up with The Best Beloveds – the house is filling up! Daughter No 2 will arrive tomorrow evening with her Live-wires. Let the fun begin! Here is the hair band I made last week in situ.

Despite the mist obscuring the sea this morning we went down to the beach for Littlest Live-wire to play in her “massive sandpit”. In this photo she is wearing a Clothkits hoodie that I made for our eldest about 40 years ago! Each of our four wore it, J, Live-wire 2 wore it a couple of years ago and it is still going strong!
