Painting, Photos & Garden Stuff

Hello!
Weekend is here and Jeff is working! Nevermind, I have lots of jobs planned too!
Yesterday we managed, among other things, get the second coat of paint onto the side of the house.
Today I decided to wash down the front in prep for painting.

We rarely use the front door and it shows. A million spiders have taken up residence.

Ew. I swear sweeping out the cobwebs was like removing birds nests!! Rains of spiders anyone??
Anyway, nothing two ladders, water and a bit of elbow grease won’t fix!

I was going to put on the first coat today but Jeff got called into work early so I had to hustle in the kitchen to get dinner made on time. (Pizza which got no photos as we were in a rush! But they were tasty and there are leftovers!)

We got our first corn today! And was it ever good!!! (Nice pizza side dish haha)

Sadly this was a bit funny on the inside. I picked a green one today and it was fine!

I need to go and hand out some cucumbers soon!

I have a really good amount of pumpkins developing now! After thinking I would get none… there should be plenty this season!

My cos lettuce seeds

The new beetroot patch is looking great. I think I need to get in there though and move a few around. More germinated than I expected!

Today’s challenge subject was umbrella/s. I had plans with some cocktail umbrellas but didn’t make it to the beach to complete said plan. Then I mucked about with some photos with my Japanese umbrella… then I got in touch with my inner-Totoro and grabbed a rhubarb leaf!
Why be serious?

Then, while doing the rounds this evening, I lucked out finding this ‘bug’ (an upcoming subject) sitting in one of my roses! Nice!

Such a pretty fellow!

Hope your weekends are completely amazing!

Cheers!
