Vegetable Sales

Last Saturday Katie & I decided to get the most out of our excess garden produce, so we picked loads of lettuce, plus some courgettes, squash and cucumbers from the garden, and then took it with the kids to sell to our neighbors. It was great, Leah liked holding up a bag of mixed lettuce and proclaiming that it was 50p (even if they had just said that they had just been shopping, and didn't need any). We didn't get rid of everything, but still sold over £5 worth of stuff.
Infact this morning we had a knock on the door from a neighbor asking if we had any more! (Which we did)

In addition to selling stuff we have been eating all that plus potatoes and runner beans. I can wait for the corn on the cob to be ready.

apples to proposals

I saw this story at lunchtime today where a guy proposed during a game of apples to apples.
This is a great game ( we have the junior version) but not sure that I would wan to propose infront of the whole family.
