Just a few pictures today.
And that is your lot today, just pictures. I will do a proper blog later this month but with the kids home all the time now that school is done for the summer, all I seem to be doing is cooking, cooking, cooking, more cooking and trying to keep the dishes washed between thunderstorms. It really is more fun than I deserve.

| I found my Celtic Cross book which fired me up to do a few carvings. |
 |
| And in the alchemy of trading, I have turned this wooden carving into two pigs. How cool is that? |
 |
| Amanda being a HUGE help in holding the dried cowhide flat so I could get pictures of it to list on Etsy. |
 |
| Amanda's Canna Lily is looking great this year. Very pink indeed. |
 |
| How can anyone not love treefrogs? |
 |
| Heat index of just under 100 but there we are, out walking for our health. Can you spot the ones NOT enjoying the walk? |
 |
| I love this picture of Devin. |
 |
| As you can tell from the mess surrounding it, this is made TOTALLY from scratch lasagna, just about to be popped into a hot oven to bake. It was fantastic! Worth all the work, which is saying something. |
 |
| A picture for Forrest, my mushroom hunting brother. |
 |
| Another walk for Simon's health. Not sure how healthy it is walking in such heat, talk about damned if you do, damned if you don't! But even in the heat, we always manage to find something fun, this time it was Peacocks displaying to each other. |
 |
| Dinner! On sale Wild Caught Salmon with organic salad and freshly baked bread. |
 |
| My windchime. It has a lovely sound but with all the rain it is too damp to hang it outside so we all keep running into it where it is hanging from the light in the dining room. |
 |
| Of the 30 chicks we hatched out, only 12 are hens. So much for 50/50 eh? |

Gosh, your Celtic Cross is brilliant. Have you come across the Welsh Love Spoons at all? Some of those are amazing, with rolling balls in a central stem (carved out of one block) and chain links ditto. I bet your lady with the pig was as delighted with the deal as you! Tell yourself, at least you can eat the cockerel imbalance problem!! (Abs from the Forum).
