It's still gloomy weather & really it's starting to get me down. The only spot of colour in my garden is the roses. Their hips are changing from green to that lovely orange, red colour.

Bleak Tuesday 26 May
What can I say. That colour of the sky is the same colour sky we have seen for days on end, I can't remember when I last saw the sun, I'm looking forward to seeing it soon though. The trees have lost nearly all their leaves & the rose hips are starting to turn orange. Not much is flowering in the garden at all & the soil is water logged.

Sunday May 24 - Game day
It was a horrible rainy day so we took the opportunity to play a game as a family. We played this game for the first time, we have had it since Christmas Day. It really is a fun game but a bit long winded for James. The other 3 of us really enjoyed it.
Saturday May 23 - Breakfast at Drexels
One of the things we like to do from time to time is to go to breakfast at Drexels. We usually go to the one in town but this time we went to the new one that opened at Riccarton.
Friday May 22 - Brent's Photo
We drive through town & pick up Scott on the way up to mum's for dinner on a Friday night. Tonight I let Brent take control of the camera so he got to take photos of things he liked. This section of road borders Hagley Park & the flags are always flying on the flagpoles, just different flags on different day. Today it was New Zealand, Australia & Great Britan.
Thursday May 21 - Banana Muffins
The organics bin gets cleared on a Friday morning so on Thursdays I try to clear up some of the older fruit & veges that are sitting in the fruit bowl or in the fridge.
Today it was time to get rid of the brown bananas & what better way than in muffins. The boys will not eat brown bananas but if I make banana muffins with them, I can guarantee that they will be eaten.
May 20 - Waxeye
After all the rain we've had the waxeyes seem to appreciate my rose hips. I presume the rain softens them a bit because they were all over my roses.
