my indoor and outdoor city garden

we ate a green bean each last week - anything grown by your own fair hand is delicious
: )
I've been thinking about adding some "weeds" to my garden! It seems pretty silly to buy packaged nettle and dandelion tea when I could have a pot of them outside!

i saw this 'clogucopia' today : )

a doodle i found in my notebook and the chickens a-roaming free this weekend.

when the watchers become the watched...

what does a girl do during the day when she's not working:
notices light shining on the edge of a paper bag
watches John Berger's 'ways of seeing' while ironing
thinks the light in the bathroom is quite nice
stocks up her newly appointed pantry a little more
plants out her beans and a tomato plant.

what does a girl do at night after work:
goes to see 'the tallest man on earth', who is actually tiny but strums up a storm with the coolest horse tattoo on his inner forearm. It's just standing there like in an ABC picture book. I took a million photos of his feet, for some reason they were mesmerising. He'd cock up his heel a certain way but I'd always miss it...
get home lock up our bikes and have a sit down.

some charm bracelets i researched for my degree thesis.

Lass and James helping with the silage this weekend. it was scorching on Saturday but we were working so hard no time for pictures! so I got this one on the overcast Sunday.

we were tidying the sides which entails combing the huge wedge of compacted grass with sprongs — like it was a giant molting housepet.

one man went to mow...
