A future tree hugger!

There hasn't been much action here of late of going to anywhere out of town. We've been taking it easy and enjoying a bit of gardening - a little bit of gardening that is... Winter isn't the best time to plant many things but we now have a window box with Italian parsley, rosemary & arugula AKA roquette/rocket. So they look quite cute out on the balcony - it has been good to get into the swing of gardening again as I miss having a garden to look after. We even have a Camelia tree in a pot which is like we had at home - this time of year they come into bloom & there will be some lovely red flowers just in time for christmas. Not that we can sit outside & enjoy the day here as it will be chilly willy, so looks like we'll be enjoying a lovely roast of some kind in our heated pad. Our little christmas tree of a lucky bamboo is going well so far & should enjoy itself long after christmas has passed.

Ashwin & I went to join a mothers group the other day but for some reason no one showed up - lucky it was near a beautiful park full of squirrels and amazing looking pine trees. So
we took the opportunity to hang out under some pine trees in the morning light. The other lucky thing for us was the sightings of many a squirrel out playing in the the sunlight.
