River walk


A walk around the Maribrynong River today was a first in a long time.
Hubby and doggy came too!
4 km in total and 3 lots of steep embankment steps.
Hopefully a sign that fitness can be back on the agenda.

A window of hope


A 30 minute workout wore me out! However, knowing that I could do this can only be a window of hope!

A rose by any other name ...


'Tis but thy name that is my enemy;
Thou art thyself, though not a Montague.
What's Montague? it is nor hand, nor foot,
Nor arm, nor face, nor any other part
Belonging to a man. O, be some other name!
What's in a name? that which we call a rose
By any other name would smell as sweet;
So Romeo would, were he not Romeo call'd,
Retain that dear perfection which he owes
Without that title. Romeo, doff thy name,
And for that name which is no part of thee
Take all myself.

From the vine

From vine ...


...to the bench
This has been our first ever veggie growing experience
and we love it!

Fishy reflection

Our pond has been commissioned with 8 new goldfish.
They are tricky to spot because they like to hid behind the plants or swim away when I get close. This photo is looking down into the water with the reflection of the kitchen wall.
