We had no plans for the weekend, which is completely unusual for us. So I thought I should tackle some cleaning, which is an unusual urge for me also! In order to put off the regular cleaning I decided to clean the plant that lives in the window. He was dusty and needed unwound anyway. And the floor beneath the cabinet needed vacuuming. The window looks so naked without its usual plant treatment.
I put the plant, which is a child of a plant my grandpa had in the sun porch for as long as I can remember, on the table under the canopy and carefully untangled the vines. One was dying and had to be removed but one was so long I had to loop it to keep it all together hanging up.
It is pretty sparse in some sections but is could probably wrap into the living room if I wanted it to.
After washing off the leaves and cleaning up on and around the cabinet we headed to Oak Grove where we arrived just in time for the fresh spring rolls. Ice cream was first of course. We bought some fresh corn, peaches, pickle sized cucumbers, large carrots and plums as well. We hung out at home the rest of the day. I was pretty lazy sitting on the couch a lot but since I have to keep my hands busy I worked on a scarf request while I vegged out.
Sunday we had talked about going to the Lego guy at market and not other plans after that. Grimm loves looking out the windows and sunning his tummy as well. He is such a good kitty!!
And so handsome!
We went to market and while we were there Joey asked if Baylor wanted to come over and play with Landon and Ryder. He said heck yeah to a double friend play date. He picked out a Flash for Landon and a Minecraft for Ryder. I picked out a Posion Ivy and Scarlet Witch for my desk collection and he found several other figures for himself including a Deadpool set.
On the way in and on the way out we had to wait for the train, naturally. It is the shortest one we ever see, just four cars. It has been many years since Baylor wanted to ride the train.
I dropped him off at Landon's and headed home to hopefully get some more work done. I wandered over to the blackberries and was surprised by how many were ripe. I had to go inside for a bowl!
And some were HUGE!
And some were covered with Japanese Beatles. I left those for the bugs to enjoy.
The tomatoes are finally starting to turn red!!
Even the tiny ones.
The basil trees are taller than the tomatoes! Good thing they go so well together.
I found two cucumbers hiding in the vines as well. It was a good harvest from my little garden.
I finally rewound the plant in the window and it looks much better again to me. Now I want to hang some hanging plants from the ceiling but I think Gloria would freak. Maybe I will put in a shelf over the window and hang the plants from there. Because I need another project!!
