{pretty, happy, funny, real}:2 June 2011

I am joining Leila today at Like Mother, Like Daughter for this week's {pretty, happy, funny, real}.

{pretty}

Yes, yes, I know it is a photgraph of bread, but it looks so pretty when I use a Brotform .

 When it is over 90 degree outside, the only outdoor fun is wet fun.

 There's nothing like a big dishpan of sudsy water and play dishes to keep them busy  (Dominic is blowing, not sucking, by the way)--

--all in the shade of the porch, of course.

Actually, a big bowl of chilled, cut-up watermelon works pretty well, too.

 This is how my husband mows:  he lets the cows out in the yard.  Not a bad idea, except for the fact that we end up with cow patties around the yard, and ornamental plants eaten.

I guess the play set was the popular spot this morning.

 This is the state of my workroom.  In truth it is The Catch-All Room.  It is full of things that need to go somewhere else.  Things for Goodwill, things to be stored in the attic, things to be ironed, outgrown and out-of-season clothing, things to be repaired.  Every now and then it gets tidied up properly, and then I just want to sit in it and behold the order and beauty of it.  

But right now it is a disaster.  Yuck.
