Huzzah!
The sprunging in the garden is most pleasing.
Some front garden action:
[Compare this to just a few months ago: yoinks!]
And a quick bit of back garden goodness:
[compare with April, and when we planted the lawn plug wotsits: yoinks!]
This whole “being outside and doing stuff” might catch on…
Winter time has meant mostly snuggles and fires at Casa Wrensch but now that the weather is clearing up, stuff is happening again. The garden is looking fabulous – things are going sprout! I’ll try and snap some pictures at the weekend.
In the meantime, please say hello to Mr Chalk, the newest addition to the kitchen:

Well hello there.
Team Wrensch have been mostly huddling around the fire and doing small stuff like mini-shelves, hanging up pictures, hence The Quiet around here recently.
The front garden exploded into greeny awesomeness, though. Thusly:
Also, we’re in the process of remixing the study / library / my office. First step has been to paint the bit of wall by the bay window (browny green), the bookcases (limey green), and for Jo to make little shelves and legs to raise the bookcase up over the skirting board and more them towards the wall. Thusly:
I’ve decided to set up a plant viewing contraption.
It will consist of a number of A4-sized mirrors on spinny poles in the garden, connected by a system of of levers and pulleys, running through underground pipes.
The control panel and main viewing mirror will be in the lounge.
We’ve thrown a few more trees into the ground:
:D
All is well in Casa Wrensch.
Not much going in inside the house at the moment (nice big list of stuff to do, though!).
Sproing helping by chewing on meep’s ears.
Ahem.
Now that the garden’s getting green, we’re getting more frequent visitors from the animal kingdom.
Lots of butterflies and the like.
The other day we spotted a stick insect on a stick.
Kinda cute…
More pictures of the actual greenery to follow when it’s not so hot and bright outside.
: )
Another weekend, another green expansion :).
See: the sprouting of many things on the ground!
Laugh: at the cunning use of old burglar bars as trellis thingies!
Sneeze: since you just had a cat sitting on your head!
(that last one might just be me…)
Also, meet Trunky. New deck chair.
In further, awesome, news: stepchairder! Chair and ladder! Combined! More than meets the eye!
1/2 of which is HW pressie from Jess – thank you! : )
Green!
This morning we planted two trays of plugs of Daisy Lawn.
Hard work, but fun. Especially when you see the result.
There Shall Be Lawn!
Also went in today – groundcover-y things between the stepping stones and some *deep breath* basil, rocket, tomatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, and baby marrows for the BRB.com’s.
Herb and veggie garden in big raised bed things
A baby Keurboom tree.
