Holes in the garden

Our puppies (enjoy the cute word as we won't be able to sensibly use it for much longer), have decided that our absence in the garden (due on our part to the cold wet weather), means that they need to take over gardening duties.

Tessa in particular has dug some magnificent holes for new plants in the garden beds, although so deep perhaps it is treasure she's actually digging for.  There is obviously quite a hoarde under the lawn as it's had a good going over too.  As I write this I should really go and shout at them because x is obviously marking the spot under a lovely little eucalypt tree as they're madly digging and barking at something at the bottom of the giant hole they've excavated!

Ah and Fraser's just them in! Marvellous chaos.

Mike took Tessa to the farm the last week and she loved it (although one would hope that she would answer the calling of her ancestors).  She was very well behaved, following the cows at a respectful distance, hanging on for dear life on the motorbike and splasing about in the mud.  Both master and hound returned home very happy.

The cupcakes have just become a definite regular fixture in our lives as I've taken a "permanent stall" at the Tooradin market down the road (the 3rd Sunday in every month so do tell your friends!)  I tried another market at Bittern to the south of here, with limited success, so decided to return to the original posting which was somewhat more reliable.  Having 60 cupcakes left over at the end of the market is depressing and is not slimming on the hips. 

There was enough sun on Friday for a sojourn to the beach.  Fraser, the dogs and I built sandcastles and ran up and down the beach.  The puppies then decided to go for a swim and despite all threats to the contrary, Fraser decided to join them.... it was a wet ride home!



My new job is great - challenging, but without stress at the moment.  The people are lovely, the product is interesting and seems to have great scope for further deveopment and sales.  The owners are passionate about their product and are just happy to let me get on with my work.  I feel rather fortunate!
